New Words and Expressions:
Ata harei yode'a - You surely know - אתה הרי יודע
Harei lama hem asu et ze - Well, you know why they did it, right? - ?הרי למה הם עשו את זה
Hu harei lo holech limkor et ha-bait - Surely he's not going to sell the house - הוא הרי לא הולך למכור את הבית
Az zehu she-ken - Actually, he would - אז זהו, שכן
Hu harei rak yeled - He is, after all, only a child - הוא, הרי, רק ילד
Hu harei lo yachol lifgo'a be-zvuv - He wouldn't hurt a fly - הוא הרי לא יכול לפגוע בזבוב
Hi harei lo yechola lifgo'a be-zvuv - She wouldn't hurt a fly - היא הרי לא יכולה לפגוע בזבוב
The most famous harei is probably this one:
Harei at mekudeshet li be-taba'at zo - With this ring be thou consecrated unto me as my wife - הרי את מקודשת לי בטבעת זו
Hareini mekabel al atsmi - I hereby take upon myself - הריני מקבל על עצמי
Harei ani hizmanti oto! - You do realize that I was the one who invited him - !הרי אני הזמנתי אותו
Harei lo hivtachti she-ehye kan be-shesh - After all I didn't promise I'd be here at six - הרי לא הבטחתי שאהיה כאן בשש
