The Hebrew Past Tense, also known as the ‘perfect’ tense, is used in religious and secular contexts to indicate an action that has been completed in the past. Verb conjugation in Hebrew uses a root system, where the root remains constant and suffixes and prefixes are added to throw light on tense, gender, and number. Uniquely, even for verbs that are not frequently used, their past tense form is a must-know as it is the basic root form that adds weightage to the verb.
