אחד                          achat                                                    one 

השעה אחד                hasha'ah achat                                      it is one o'clock 

השעה שבע בבוקר      hasha'a sheva beboker                         it is seven in the morning 


yesh li = I have = there is for me

we had yesh in lessons 21+22: yesh lechem? ken yesh. Is there bread? Yes there is.

yesh li means I have but the construction is very different of how the idea of possession is expressed in indoeuropean languages.

the li is composed of the prepesition l (for) and the first person ending i .

 l + i         = li           = for me
 l + echa   = lecha    = for you (masc.)
 l + lach   = lach       = for you (fem.)

yesh li literally translated means there is for me


new numbers:
7 sheva
1 achat

so now we have eight out of ten:

     1           2              3               4               5                 6              7            8             9            10
   achat  shtayim    shalosh                      chamesh                      sheva   shmoneh    tesha       esser
