Description
What other ways are there to say ‘goodbye’ in Hebrew, apart from the ubiquitous yalla bye?
If you want to sound like an Israeli you can't just say the right words, you also have to sing them in the right tune.
Guy Sharett teaches us how to sing the Hebrew 'goodbye' song.
Words and expressions discussed:
Lehitraot – לְהִתְרָאוֹת
Shalom velo lehitraot – שָלוֹם וְלֹא לְהִתְרָאוֹת
Al tagid li bye – אַל תָּגִיד לִי בַּיי
