Paradigmatic

(requires Mac OS X 10.4 or greater)

Paradigmatic is a paradigm/grammar tool for learning Biblical Hebrew verb forms that I’m working on. Any student of Biblical Hebrew should find this program useful. I’m assuming a certain level of knowledge of Hebrew - it won’t teach you fundamental grammar or syntax - but it will help you drill in and learn what you already know.

More info about the program, a FAQ, and a beta download (current version 0.6.1, 2.3 MB), can be found at the Paradigmatic site.

Functionality at this stage includes the ability to view a given paradigm, edit paradigm entries (and add/remove whole paradigms), and a parsing tool to test recognition. Additional tables relating to noun declension, pronominal suffixes, and verb patters are also available.

Currently the paradigm data includes:

  • Strong Paradigms
  • I-Aleph, I-Guttural
  • I-Nun
  • I-Waw, I-Yodh
  • II-Guttural
  • III-Aleph, III-Guttural
  • III-He
  • Hollow Verbs, including polel/polal/hithpolel
  • Geminates
  • ‘Special’ roots: היה and הוה

 

Note that Paradigmatic is a universal Binary.
