1. בּאוּביבֶרְסיטה "at the university" The prefix בּ has many meanings including: "in, at, with". The meaning depends on the context.
There is a difference between בְּ and בּ . For example: בְּאוּניבֶרְסיטה = at a university compared with בּאוּניבֶרְסיטה =at the university.
2. שֶלומֶדֶת The prefixשֶ means "that".
Often there are English sentences where the word "that" is not used but the prefix שֶ is required in Hebrew. For example: "The woman I met" = האישה שֶהִכּרְתי.
3. אוּליי You will often see אולי spelled with just one yood
4. אנחנו נִלְמד The pronoun אנחְנו can be omitted and often it is left out. The נ at the beginning of the verb indicates "we".
5. הוּא לומֵד רְפוּאה You may be familiar with the expression רְפוּאה שְלֵמה "may you have a complete recovery"
6. הוּא רוצֶה לִהְיות ="he wants to be". There are three infintitives in our 'email':לְדבֵּר לִהְיות לרוּץ notice that the infinitive always begins with a ל.
7. על סְפרד "about Spain" The word על means both "on"and "about".
8. בְאהבה ="with love"
