PANORAMA by David Schwartz
Hebrew Boom in the U. S.
I gather from a fellow col
umnist that there is quite a
boom on in the Hebrew lan
guage. A number of colleges
are offering special courses.
The revival of Israel has creat
ed a new interest in the lan
guage.
In the past, at least in Amer
ica, we have been prepared for
slow results. Remember the
story Eddie C’unti r used to tell
about the indignant parent who
called up the Hebrew teacher:
“What’s the idea? 1 send my
lx»y to the Hebrew school and
the first thing you teach him
is Kaddish. Do you expect me
to die right away?"
“You should live so long t.ll
your boy learns it," consoled
the teacher.
Hut now it is different. It’s
the rare student who can study
.1 dead language Hut a living
language is something differ
ent There’s an interest, an ex
citement in studying Hebrew
today.
showed that when the need
arose to train soldiers who
could speak foreign languages,
the teaching o: languages could
he speeded up. It found I be
lieve, that the speed of teach
ing the language could be al
most doubled by reducing the
size of the class. The army
used a kind of "vocal mnror"
by which the students could
detect the errors of their pro
nunciation.
Ittamar ben Abi, the son of
Eleazer ben Jehuda. wanted to
l.'din'ze the Hebrew alphabet.
Jabotmskv, by the way, favor
ed the same idea. Writing He
brew in the English or Latin
script might be helpful in the
teaching of the language.
Perhaps it might be a good
idea to have a Basic Hebrew
correspor ding to Basic English.
The average person does not
use more than 1,000 words in
his speech. Basic English takes
note of this fact and even em
phasizes it. There is the word
for “cup” in Basic English, but
not for saucer. When you need
to say saucer, you simply say.
“The dish you put under the
cup.” That’s quite as satisfac
tory. And you can do the same
thing in Hebrew.
Lastly, for those who desire
a quick road to Hebrew', I of
fer the advice offered by-
Thomas Jefferson, who knew
manv languages. Je'fersnn
said, if you want to learn a
language quickly, “Get into a
home where they speak the
language, where there are a lot
of women and children “
Swiss Operation Restores
Eyesight to l)r. V/eizmaim
The boom in Hebrew has in
faet just begun It will gain
inue11 momentum in our uni-
.ersitles in the near future. I
should not ;*■ sui prised to see
many "goyim” even beginning
lo take it instead of possibly
German oi Spanish fer their
language course. There was a
time m America when there
was quite a vogue tor studying
He rew. In the early colonial
days, Hebrew was a favorite
subject of study. Almost all of
the students in the early days
of Harvard University studied
Hebrew. At the time of the
American Revolution, as U. L.
Mencken writes in his “Amer
ican Languuge," there were
some Americans who advocat
ed that the country abandon
English and adopt Hebrew as
the vehicle of speech. Presi
dent James Madison refers to
his study of Hebrew at Prince
ton.
This interest in Hebrew was
motivated by the fact that
early America was greatly un
der the sway of the Hebraic
ideas, of which the Puritans
had become so enamoured, in
other words. Hebrew was part
of the early American way of
life. It might have beer a dead
language, but it was something
very living to the first Ameri
cans.
The same principle applies
to the present revival of He
brew. It has begun to pulse
with life again. We are con
scious that a great thing has
happened. A nation has been
resurrected. A small nation, it
is t*ue, but one that can com
bat great numbers A nation
that is going places.
And so we want to study
Hebrew.
It seems to me that Zionists
ought to take some special
pains to meet ;he demand that
is arising.
