Study English words and see if you can find the Hebrew root. Some scholars believe that many languages derive from Hebrew and that Hebrew roots form the basis of the vocabulary of these languages. These scholars point to English words such as "cider," which they say comes from the Hebrew word "sheker" (drunk); "maven," which may come from "mevin" (understand); "barley," which may derive from the Hebrew word "bar" (grain); and "botany," from the hebrew "nevet" (seed -- in Hebrew, the "v" and the "b" can be interchangeable). One famous example of this discipline called "edenics" is the word "Pharoah," which, edenicist scholars believe, comes from the Hebrew words "Peh Rah" or "bad mouth."
