 | | English has been a very strong influence, both from British influence during the period of the Mandate and American influence in the present day. |
 | | Finally, Arabic, being the language of numerous Mizrahic and Sephardic Jewish immigrants from Arab countries as well as of the Palestinians and Israeli Arabs, has also had an important influence on Hebrew, especially in slang ((for example, "sababa", meaning "excellent", or "y'alla", meaning "come on.") |
 | | Modern Hebrew is printed with a script known as "square". |
