English to Hebrew: give the translator the speaker and audience
The missing information inside English you
An English message can address one woman, one man, or a whole group without changing the word you. Hebrew frequently makes those distinctions visible in pronouns and verb forms. Before translating an invitation, reminder, or instruction, identify the intended recipient. A message that sounds personal in English can become awkward when its Hebrew grammar addresses a different audience.
The short contrast אתה and את illustrates masculine and feminine singular you. Neither is an automatic equivalent for every English occurrence. In a customer notice aimed at many people, repeatedly choosing a singular form can also change the relationship with readers. Give audience information in the source sentence when it belongs in the message, rather than expecting a one-word input to contain it.
Descriptions need a grammatical owner
Hebrew adjectives agree with the noun they describe. English tired stays unchanged, while אני עייף and אני עייפה express I am tired with masculine and feminine speaker agreement. These are useful contrasts when writing a personal message, but grammatical agreement should follow the intended speaker rather than a guess based on a name.
For product descriptions, the relevant gender is normally that of the Hebrew noun selected for the product. It need not reflect anything about the person using it. A replacement noun can require several surrounding words to change, so editing only a translated adjective after the fact may leave an inconsistent sentence. Translate the complete description again after changing its central noun.
Unpointed writing is ordinary writing
Most everyday Hebrew is written without the vowel points encountered in beginner textbooks. Their absence does not by itself mean that the output is incomplete. The Academy publishes spelling rules specifically for unvocalized Hebrew. A fully pointed learning exercise and an ordinary appointment message therefore have different presentation needs.
Keep enough English context to disambiguate the intended word sense: charge a battery, charge a fee, and charge someone with an offence describe different actions. Hebrew cannot recover the intended action merely from an isolated English heading. An explanatory sentence is often more useful input than several disconnected keywords.
Read the finished message as a Hebrew message
Hebrew runs from right to left, while Latin identifiers and many number strings retain their own direction. Check a copied address, email, or model number in the application where the reader will receive it. A visually displaced punctuation mark can make an otherwise intelligible contact detail difficult to use.
For a reusable translation, retain the audience and purpose alongside the saved wording. A sentence prepared for one woman is not necessarily ready for a mixed group, and a textbook phrase may sound unusually formal in a chat. These notes help you reuse a useful translation without losing the circumstances that made its grammar appropriate.
