2. The numerical value of CHET is 8
3. In modern Hebrew, the frequency usage of the letter CHET is 2.36%.
4. The sound of the Hebrew letter CHET is like the CH in ‘LOCH NESS or in BACH.

6. Israelis – in chats, the use of the letter CHET in succession expresses “funny” as in hahaha is expressed as חחח (cha/cha/cha).

Names that Begin with the Letter CHET for Boys and Girls

Nowadays, past name-choice practices are still prevalent, but many parents do not limit themselves to Biblical nor gender-specific naming.

In modern Hebrew in modern Israel, among the unisex names beginning with the letter CHET, previously assigned to a specific gender, you will find CHEN (grace, charm) and CHO-SHEN (the breastplate worn by the High Priest in the days of the Holy Temple in Jerusalem).

Tu BiShvat: The New Year for Trees

Tu BiShvat celebrates the New Year for the Trees, which is in essence a celebration of nature and the fruits of the land of Israel. Jewish tradition marks the 15th of Shvat as the day when the sap in the trees begins to rise, signaling the earth’s awakening from its winter slumber, and heralding the beginning of spring.

This mini-holiday is of major importance to our appreciation of Nature and our relationship to it. Tu BiShvat, the Tree’s New Year, celebrates the renewal and reawakening of nature.

Towards the end of every January or beginning of February, as the winter months and its sense of hibernation has lingered for what feels like too long, the “Shkedia,” the Almond Tree begins to blossom in Israel. The almond tree signals that the season is on the precipice of change and brings joy to the heart.

An Israeli kid song expresses just that:

Hashkedia porachat V’shemesh paz zorachat Tziporim b’rosh kol gag Mevasrot et bo hechag Tu b’shvat hee-gee-a Chag la-ilanot

The Shkedia is blooming The golden sun is shining Birds on all the roof-tops Broadcast the approaching holiday Tu b’Shvat is upon us A holiday for trees

The custom on Tu Bihvat is to eat fruits from the seven species for which the Land of Israel is praised: “…a land of wheat and barley and (grape) vines and fig trees and pomegranates, a land of olive trees and (date) honey” (Deut. 8:8).

In honor of Tu BiShvat learn thenames of fruits in Hebrew.
Get the “Fruits in Hebrew: At Old Country Grove” – one of the books from “A Taste of Hebrew” series.

Fruits in Hebrew At Old Country Grove is the fifth volume in
MazorBooks “A Taste of Hebrew” for English speaking kids series.

In this installment, Ami and Tami, the adorable twins, accompany Grandma Ruth on a trip to the fruity-licious fair at Old Country Grove.

Colorful illustrations engage children in the story of the twins as well as teach young readers the Hebrew names for fruit, which appear in Hebrew, in English translation, and in English transliteration.

“A Taste of Hebrew” is a wonderfully entertaining and educational series that introduces children to basic Hebrew.
