How to Say “Shew” in Hebrew

להראות
The English phrase shew is translated into Hebrew as להראות.

Did you know?

  • The phrase להראות is part of a grammatical pattern called the 'Hif'il' stem, which is used specifically to make an action causative, essentially turning 'to see' into 'to cause someone to see'.
  • The word ראה (the root of להראות) is a 'hollow root', meaning the middle letter is a vowel that disappears or changes depending on the tense.
  • In certain poetic Hebrew texts, the act of 'showing' is often linked to the concept of 'revelation' or 'unveiling', elevating the word from a simple gesture to a divine act.

Examples in context

  • הגלריה המקומית תציג את ציורי האמנים הישראליים בתערוכה.
    The local gallery will exhibit the paintings of Israeli artists in the exhibition.
  • אני רוצה להראות לך את התמונות.
    ani rotze lehar'ot lekha et hatmunot.
    I want to show you the photos.
  • הוא יכול להראות לי איך עושים את זה?
    hu yakhol lehar'ot li eykh osim et ze?
    Can he show me how to do this?
