"I am a lawyer and my dad is a judge."

Translation: אני עורך דין, ואבא שלי שופט.

[Esalitsky]

shouldn't דיין work too?

[BetzalelB]

That's more of a "rabbinical judge," or something. דיין is like the word you'd see in the Talmud. Rather archaic :P

[Pumbush]

No

[PeterVanPan]

Does't אבי mean the same as אבא שלי?

[PeninaAdat]

Yes

[Ivritophile]

I typed "אני עורכת דין" and was told that I had a typo, and it should be, "אני עורך דין" . Did I genuinely make a mistake (100% plausible, haha), or are women lawyers being snubbed? Not trying to start an argument, just genuinely curious. תודה!

[Mazzorano]

That is very strange indeed. There are two best translations, one uses עורך דין and the other עורכת דין. It accepts both.

[airelibre]

Probably another case of where we added the feminine translation at a later date and the change hasn’t gone through on the user end.

[deactivated user]

I HAVE THE SAME TRANSLATION AS YOURS, AND IT HAS BEEN MARKES AS A TYPO TOO. BUT I THINK THE FEMENINE IS AN ACCEPTABLE TRANSLATION FOR LAWYER. ןT'S JUST THAT THE COMPUTER DOESN'T PERHAPS NOW THERE IS A FEMENINE FOR LAWYER IN HEBREWֱ

[ichteltelch]

Why is there no copula before שופט?
