Tu Bishvat (Begginer Level) | Learn Hebrew with Ulpan Integraliah Podcast

From tonight until tomorrow, jewish people around the world and in Israel are celebrating Tu Bishvat. Tu BiChvat or Hamicha assar bichvat (Hebrew: ט "ו בִּשְׁבָט or חֲמִשָּׁה עָשָׂר בִּשְׁבָט "the fifteenth of the month of shevat," "Tou" being put for the letters Tet and Vav, ט "ו, worth 9 + 6 = 15) is a Jewish holiday of rabbinic institution. Designated in the Mishna as "New Year of the Trees" (Hebrew: רֹאשׁ הַשָּׁנָה לָאִילָן roch hachana la'ilan), Tu Bishvat becomes, under the impetus of the Kabbalists of Safed, a festival of the renewal of the Land of Israel. Zionism takes up this image, substituting the State for the Land, and secularists make it a Jewish day of ecology. Let's learn some new hebrew words in this Podcast with Yuval !
