'''Modern Hebrew''' is the Hebrew variant presently spoken in [[Israel]]. It is referred to as ''modern'' to distinguish it from its classical variant. The name of [[Eliezer Ben-Yehuda]] has an inextricable association with modern Hebrew. Without him, modern Hebrew might not today be spoken. Also, and more importantly, he more than any other man made Modern Hebrew what it is.
