How to Play Lemma Learner
The Objective
Master Hebrew vocabulary! Your goal is to identify the English meaning of a word randomly selected from your preferred bible passage.
Step-by-Step
- Select a passage from the Hebrew Bible to draw from.
- Type in the English translation of the randomly selected word you see.
- Once you get a word correct, it will be removed from the pool of available words.
- Keep going until you have defined every unique word from the passage.
Pro Tips
- Try to keep your answers as simple as possible. For a word like היה, enter be instead of to be or he was.
- Unfortunately, because this game is based on pre-existing, free sources, some words have strange or dated definitions. Some examples to watch out for are את is defined as self, and שם is defined as appellation but not name.
Passage Selection
Enter range (e.g., Gen 1:1-2:5 or Ps 119).
Exclude words from a passage using curly braces (e.g. Gen 3 {Gen 1-2}).
