He is also the author of Lonely Planet’s Central Asia phrasebook. He holds a doctorate in Social Anthropology from Harvard University, and speaks more than 20 languages. IIana Wistinetzki was born in Tel Aviv and grew up in Gi- vataim. At age 27 she exchanged the Mediterranean spell with the charms of Paris, where she went to study Chinese. She has been a student of Chinese ever since. She also studied at Bei- jing University, and later went on to teach Beijing University’s Hebrew courses. from the authors In his odyssey with the Hebrew language, Justin gives his greatest thanks to Rabbi Michael Paley, his rabbi while he was an undergraduate at Dartmouth College. In Israel, Justin’s tremendous love goes to Monette, Christian, Moshe and Keren Seboun, who gave him a home in the Holy Land. He gives his thanks to those who helped him recover the Hebrew language lost to his ancestors during the Jewish Dias- pora, including Ulpan Akiva in Netanya, Dana Stern, and Ronit Feingold. He gives his huge khibukim to the Feingold family of aa Nataf, including Haim, Ronit, Daniel, Tal and lrit. Justin’s contribu- cc kk tion to this book is dedicated to his wife, Chelle ‘Che’ Rudelson. nn IIana thanks Peter, her charming prince who, not least, oo cracked offhandedly the mysteries and vagaries of the soft- ww ware; Talya, who always remembered the words she didn’t; her ll ee brother Yoram and nephew ldan, who updated her on idioms; dd Susan her enthusiastic student and friend who, together with gg Noa, provided a list of dishes; and, last but not least, Cristina in mm Paris, who needs to refresh her Hebrew vocabulary. ee She dedicates this book in memory of her father, Johanan nn Wistinetzki, whose love for languages was second only to his tt ss love of music. 3 000--pprreelliimmss--ppbb--hheebb44..iinndddd 33 1166//1122//22001199 1111::0099::1100 AAMM make the most of this phrasebook … Anyone can speak another language!
