English (English) is spoken by about 1.5 billion people across the United States, the United Kingdom, Canada, Australia, and as the world's lingua franca. It belongs to the Germanic (Indo-European) language family and is written in the Latin alphabet. English has very little inflection and instead relies heavily on word order and helper verbs, with a huge vocabulary drawn from both Germanic and Romance roots.

Hebrew to English translation tips
- Hebrew is written in the Hebrew script, written right to left, and English uses the Latin alphabet, so the translator converts between writing systems for you.
- English requires an explicit subject in nearly every sentence and marks questions with word order, so translations into English often need pronouns and auxiliaries that the source language leaves out. Hebrew verbs agree with the speaker's gender and the script runs right to left, so both grammar and direction change in translation.
- Hebrew is written right to left and most verbs, and even the word 'you', change form depending on whether the person addressed is male or female, a distinction English does not mark.
- Everyday printed and digital Hebrew is usually written without niqqud (vowel points), so the same consonant skeleton can occasionally be read more than one way; native readers rely on context, much like English homographs.
- Hebrew has a distinct formal register mostly used in official or biblical contexts, but everyday speech, including with strangers, is generally direct and uses the plain second person rather than a separate polite form like French vous.
