- Roots that end on hey are always an eyecatcher. They affect all binyanim in the same way. But which binyanim do we actually use in Modern Hebrew. And how?

Great!!
This is a bit of a random question, but what does מפוחדת mean, exactly? I know that it means “scared” or “frightened”, but I don’t understand where it fits in with לפחד - מפחדת and לפחוד - פוחדת.
Where have you seen that?
@@HebrewVerbs It’s the first line of an Eli Gorenstein song parody. The full line is מדינה מפוחדת בסגר, מוכת מגיפה חמורה.
okay, now I understand. This is the passive voice (hufal) of the binyan "hifil", whose infinitive is "לְהַפְחִיד" to intimidate. Hifil groups verbs where "you make somebody do something", here: the country was scared, as in "someone or something did something scary to it". Unfortunaly, these details got lost in the translation.
@@HebrewVerbs Ohh, so this “scared” would be in the passive voice. I understand now. I suppose that it’s clearer in Hebrew than in English 😅. Thank you so much, and have a great day!

Thank you. To you, too!!
