Learn Hebrew - 30 Days!

I have reached 30 days of my learn Hebrew challenge, and I am pleasantly surprised at how much I've retained. So here it goes, I should have 29 words ready to go:
  1. shanah means year
  2. luach shanah mean year
  3. hayom means today
  4. etmol means yesterday
  5. machar means tomorrow
  6. shavu'a means week
  7. tzachak means laugh
  8. asah means do
  9. ba means come
  10. hish'tamesh means use
  11. yachol means can
  12. sha'a means hour
  13. dakah means minute
  14. sh'niyah means second
  15. besha'a means o'clock
  16. sh'aon means clock
  17. hechin means make
  18. halach means go
  19. ra means bad
  20. ra'a means see
  21. rachok means far
  22. katan means small
  23. kashe means difficult
  24. kal means near
  25. na'im meod means nice to meet you
  26. yefeyfe means beautfil
  27. mecho'ar means ugly
  28. [blank] means easy
  29. tsahara tovim....spelling is off. means Good Afternoon which my husband tells me is super proper Hebrew, not common at all. It is tsahara'im tovim
so let's see how I did:
kal means easy no near and karov means near.

so my 30th phrase is: ta'im which means delicious!

I'm coming across a lot of words on Hebrewpod's core 100 list that I already know so I am skipping those, like boker tov, erev tov, lyla tov, shalom, toda, etc
