By ruwach, I am wondering if you mean the Hebrew word for Spirit/Wind?  I usually see this spelled ruach in English, that's why I'm asking.\n\nAnyways, the word is spelled \nresh-vav-chet\n\nIf you want to see those letters in the really ancient Hebrew script, go to:\n\nhttp://www.ancientscripts.com/old_hebrew.html\n\nThat is the ancient alphabetic script, and the letters you are looking for are r, w, and h with a dot under it (don't get that confused with the regular h).\nThen make sure to arrange the letters from right to left, and that is what the word would look like!\n\nIf you want to see it in modern Hebrew letters, you can go to:\n\nhttp://www.ancientscripts.com/hebrew.html\n\nand do the same thing.\n\nSorry I couldn't give you a link that just had it already spelled out.  That's the best I could do!  ;)

All I could find was info on \nARIEH:  \nMeans "lion" in Hebrew. This is the name of an officer of king Pekahiah in the Old Testament.

It depends what you mean by 'in use'. Things are still being written in Coptic, the latest phase in Ancient Egyptian, so it is certainly the oldest in continuous use (from before 3000 BC) and not just in religious ceremonies (I have seen a book by Pope Shenouda III in Coptic, thought it may have been translated from Arabic). But it hasn't been continuously spoken as a mother tongue by anyone, unlike Aramaic. \n\nBoth Hebrew and Aramaic are first attested - as far as I know - in the 10th century BC (I'd be interested to see evidence of a 1500 BC date for Aramaic), and I'd not like to say which has older remains. Again, though Hebrew has been in continuous use as a means of communication, it ceased to be a mother tongue for some 2000 years till its recent renaissance.\n\nGreek, in the Linear B script, dates back to the 14th century BC, so it has the edge on Aramaic. It also slightly predates the oldest Chinese writing, the oracle bone script, which dates back to the 13th century BC.\n\nSanskrit - Vedic - is old, and its modern descendents, Hindi, Panjabi, etc. are certainly still widely used! Not being an Indologist, I've no idea whether these languages are further removed from Sanskrit then Neo-Aramaic from ancient Aramaic (the fact that they have different names surely makes no difference). But as a written language, its oldest remains are Prakrit inscriptions in the last centuries BC.\n\nLatin's first remains are three or four centuries after Aramaic and Hebrew. The oldest Arabic inscription is - if I remember - from the second century AD, and the existing languages of South Arabia are not believed to be decendents of Epigrahic South Arabian (which appears around the 8th century BC). \n\nThe Aramaeans do have the oldest continuously-occupied city (Damascus) and one of the oldest continually-used written languages, but not quite the oldest (if you don't accept Coptic, Greek wins this). But Aramaic - as far as I can tell - has second-oldest continually-used combination of script and language after Chinese, since Hebrew (other than Samaritan Hebrew) now uses the Aramaic script, Greek the Phoenecian script, and Egyptian (Coptic) the Greek script (bar one or two letters). And it has - with Hebrew - the longest known use of the alphabet.

Your best bet is to check at a university that has a department of Ancient Languages, really. Still, I list a dictionary in the sources; if there is a title that you can translate, you may be able to find an English version somewhere. Or, you can contact the owner and ask...

Berashith bera alhim ath Hashamim vath Aretz...ve Aretz "Tohu Bohu"...this is Anglicized Hebrew obcourse(please pardon that I do not have a Hebrew font)...Translation:In the beginning created Alhim(Elohim) the heavens and the Earth...and the Earth was "tohu bohu"...most interesting this "tohu bohu"...as it is a Chaldean phrase...that we translate as "without shape and form"...yet very mysterious...and this phrase is never again repeated in the Torah (the Hebrew original of the Old Testament)...Not the degenerated form translated to Greek then English Guttenburg St.James editions...that so many feel they "possess" when they have never even begun contemplating "The Beauty of the Word"\n\n  Of interest also...Elohim(or Alhim)...The same that Christ called on the cross as "Eloh"....the "him" suffix implies both the feminine and a plural host...\n\n  The "tohu bohu" formless void has some paralels in the Sanskrit "chit sat tat"...suchness thatness more or less...\n\n  As it seems to me,you are contemplating very core matters,that I hope you find as rewarding as I have...Even Jesus' parables were packed full of layers of contemplation more accessible by the Hebrew alphabet he revered...Gimel for example...the Hebrew "G"...translates as "camel"...and I have seen many wealthy men threading the eyes of needles by this path..

Keep in mind that some translations may leave the old Chaldean names intact, like Zedek (Jupiter), Nogah (Venus), Adom/Madim (Mars), Sabbatei (Saturn), and Kokah (Mercury).  You may find some interesting references in the link below.

J- Julian (another name for their calendar)\nL- length\nU-unit\nV- volume (Egyptians did math too)\nX and Z are tough, but they did use heiroglyphics that resembled these letters, so you might be able to find words for them also.\nGood luck.

There are 22 letters in the Hebrew Alphabet, and each letter has a numeral value:\n\nא (Alef)- 1\nב (Bet)- 2\nג (Gimel)- 3\nד (Dalet)- 4\nה (Heh)- 5\nו (Vav)- 6\nז (Zayin)- 7\nח (Chet)- 8\nט (Tet)- 9\nי (Yud)- 10\nכ (Kaf)- 20\nל (Lamed)- 30\nמ (Mem)- 40\nנ (Nun)- 50\nס (Samech)- 60\nע (Ayin)- 70\nפ (Peh)- 80\nצ (Tzadi)- 90\nק (Kuf)- 100\nר (Resh)- 200\nש (Shin)- 300\nת (Tav)- 400\n\nThe number 312 will be written שי"ב. Shin (ש) is for 300, Yud (י) is for 10, and Bet (ב) is for two. The letters are written from right to left and two inverted commas before the last letter shows that it is not a real word.\n\nThis Hebrew year is the year of תשס"ז means 400+300+60+7= 767. It is accepted to add the letter Heh (ה) with an apostrophe after it before the name of the year, and thus to add another 5000 years to the counting: ה'תשס"ז.\n\nAny word in Hebrew has a numeral value:\nתורה (Torah): 611\nאהבה (love): 13\nיותם (my name): 456\nעגבת (syphilis ): 475\nמלפפון (cucumber): 286
