I'd like to uh begin new miniseries Hilus brahis and the clin of brahus um you know brahas is very important you're supposed to make there's there's very few things that kazal put such a big number on mayh and brahos um what's interesting as a hakda is the garamari learns in braus is probably a dicea according to um most most of the most of the opinions of how you're learning the bra is slammed um but it's it's a derisa that does doesn't explain how to do the dissa so it was the anessa which came along and they gave a um a nusak they told us how to make a bra and we're going to learn they're very particular about how you make a bra there's according to many opinion just to skip ahead even if you can davin let's say in English you don't know Hebrew well, you shouldn't make in English.
