Hebrew Letters

Hebrew Letters is a straightforward yet very useful application for letter-by-letter (lettriq) study of Hebrew words. It’s designed for the English and French public, and it allows users to get a full description of what a sentence in Hebrew means.

The application can be run on pretty much any computer running Windows Vista or newer, and it follows a pretty basic installation process.

Before anything, it’s worth noting that this app has two requirements; namely, it requires .NET Framework 4.5 or above and the SQL ODBC Driver to be present on the machine at hand.

Hebrew Letters has two main modes: Analyze a word, and Settings. Users can select the modes from the upper left corner of the app’s main window or by using the F1, respectively F2 keys.

The first mode allows users to select Hebrew letters from the database and customize their meaning, analyze the words letter by letter in order to get a clear sentence description and its meaning, and effortlessly copy the resulting translation to the clipboard.

Users can head up to the Settings section and fully customize the translations by fiddling about with parameters such as Name, Value, Full Value, Positive, Negative, Verb, Structure, and Function, as well as add new meanings in the default list. What’s more, the app provides users with the option of selecting the default screen position for the app’s GUI, to reset the windows settings, as well as choose between two of the supported GUI languages: English and French.

Taking everything into consideration, Hebrew Letters gets the job done without requiring much know-how on the user’s part. It’s fairly easy to install, requires no configuration whatsoever, and it’s remarkably intuitive, allowing just about anyone to perform accurate translations of Hebrew words and sentences.
