ואם

This is the 302nd most frequent Hebrew word.


ואם

"And if"


In this sentence, "ואם" is used to introduce a conditional statement, allowing for a potential action based on a prior decision or situation.

ואם אתה רוצה, בוא נלך לפארק.

And if you want, let's go to the park.


Here, "ואם" is used to connect two phrases, where the second phrase depends conditionally on the first.

אני שואל אותך ואם תדע, תוכל לתקן אותי.

I am asking you, and if you know, you can correct me.


The use of "ואם" here creates a preparatory condition for an uncertain future event.

בוא נישאר פה ואם יקרה משהו, נהיה מוכנים.

Let's stay here, and if something happens, we will be prepared.
