Do you hear a familiar verb
in the future tense of אני in this song?
... the song of Pippi Longstocking (with subtitles).

BTW, the lyrics are here.

And... why do you think her name was changed in Hebrew to Bilbi?

Not too many words for this lesson! Do you want to learn more?

If you feel like you may need a broader vocabulary to express yourself freely sooner (which is true! because our lego-like course has the absolute minimum of words!) you would like to familiarize yourself with this additional vocab for curious. It will not be included in the course exercises, but you will definitely need these words out there when you start using the language!

Including:
