21st Century Bible Hebrew -- frequent verbs

Here is a list of the 30 most frequent verb roots in Genesis, sorted from least to most common.  Learn these verbs in all aspects in qal, and learn bo in hifil, BUT learn diber in piel (although the qal does come up from time to time) and you won’t have to use the dictionary nearly so much.  If you have bought Bolozky’s 501 Hebrew Verbs, you can use that; the Biblical Hebrew versions are much like modern Hebrew, which is what the book focuses on, aside from pesky things like modal morphology and narrative past and necessity.
