Malcolm bradbury made the point, and i don't know whether it's a valid one or not, that the real english at the moment is not the english spoken in england or in america or even in canada or australia or new zealand. the real english is the english which is a second language, so that it's rather like latin in the days of the roman empire when people had their own languages, but had latin in order to communicate.

The revival of hebrew, as a spoken language, is a fascinating story, which i'm afraid i cannot squeeze into a few sentences. but, let me give you a clue. think about elizabethan english, where the entire english language behaved pretty much like molten lava, like a volcano in mid-eruption. modern hebrew has some things in common with elizabethan english. it is being reshaped and it's expanding very rapidly in various directions. this is not to say that every one of us israeli writers is a william shakespeare, but there is a certain similarity to elizabethan english.
