Was the revival of Hebrew in fact accomplished? Is the language spoken today in Israel a revived Biblical or Mishnaic Hebrew\footnote{Hereafter collectively `Old Hebrew' following Horvath and Wexler.}
Theoretical linguist Chaim Rosen thought that Israeli was not Hebrew. Rosen wrote of
\blockquote{You can use overleaf.com also instead of installing latex.\ac[40]{BenRafael2002}}
Half a century later the scientific research has been done. What is the evidence that confirms Rosen's supposition that despite the normativists' desires, Israeli is not Hebrew?
This is another first cite.\ac{Keesing1988}. Back to the first.\ac[122]{BenRafael2002} and on to the third.\ac{Wekker1996}
Let's try an ibid. \footnote{"because they are fun" \cite[58]{Wekker1996}}

In cases like \it{hi\textbf{shpríts}} `splash' (3ms\textsc{PAST}) \it{hi\textbf{shprátsti}} `I splashed' (1s\textsc{PAST}). And then Ben-Gurion said, "\begin{hebrew}מה הבעיה?\end{hebrew}"\ac{Keesing1988}
Some kind of conclusion.
