This is how Chaya remembers her number. "J" is for jew. "1" is for her being alone. In English it is pronounced "9" which is German word for no. "7" is each and every day of the week. "2" is for Gitl and Shmuel and "4" is for her family. That is how Chaya remembers her numbers.
I think Chaya remembers From the faze "J is for Jew." "1". 9 is for is pronounced nine in English it's also a German word for no."7" Is each and every day of the week. "2" is for Shmuel and Gitl. Her family number is "4". I'm not sure how she remembers is but i'm confused.... I didn't get this part of it. I also think she remembers it by least to greatest. Mr.Illi said if you have a low number like "A1" you where better off of living then a number of "G3". You're more likely to die.
I think hannah remebersher numbers from the faze by rembering that "J" is for Jew. 1 is for being the only one. 9 is for when she went back and rembering that in english it is pronuced nine but in german its means no. seven is for each day in the week .two Is for Gitl and Sahmuel who were in the place too. 4 is for her family.
The way that Chaya remembered her numbers "J is for Jew." 1 is for her, alone. 9 in English it would pronounced 'nine' which would be like the German word no. Seven is for everyday of the week that she stays alive. Two is for Gitl and Shmuel who are in the place too. Four is for her family.
J for Jew. And 1 for me, alone. I am very, very much alone. And 9...in English it is pronounced 'nine', which is like the German word for no. No, I will not die here...Seven is for...each and every day of the week I stay alive. One day at a time. Then 2 for Gitl and Shmuel, who are here in this place, too...And 4 is for my family, I think. I almost remember them. If I close my eyes they are there, hovering within sight.
she rememebers that she is jewish how many people that in her family etc.... so if she remembers her number sand does what she is told then she will live at least for a while.
she said that j was for joos and 1 for hear alown and 9 for in englsh that it say no 1 will die hear and 4 is for hear familly and her she has her mom sister and brother and her
This is how she remembered the numbers, J for being Jewish, 9 in means nine so it means no she will not die here 7 is for the days of the week she will stay alive, 2 for her friends gitl and shmuel that are with her in this place too,4 is for her family. thats how she remembers the numbers
for chapters 4-5 her new family is different by her old family by her new family said she lived in Lublend instead of New York and her new family calls her a different name.
The way that Chaya remebers that J is for jew, 1 is for being alone and 9 in german is no. Seven is for everyday of the week, and 4 is Chaya. I think that what Chaya is trying to do is, it's that she's trying to have an identity again. Maybe that's why she was trying to memorize the numbers on her arm because the numbers are her name now.
for chapters 4-5 Hannah's new family is different from her old family because her new family lived in lublin and her old family lives in New York. Also the new family call her Hannah and the old family calls her Chaya.
I think how she rembers is her name is because the 'J' is for jew. The 7 is for the day of the week. And the 4 is for her family so its way easier foor her memorize it.
I think how she rembers is her name is because the 'J' is for jew. The 7 is for the day of the week. And the 4 is for her family so its way easier foor her memorize it and 2 if for shammuel and gittel. And 4 is for samuel.
Hannah reambers by using the numbers they gave her like J is for Jew, the number 7 is for the day of the week. And the number 4 is for her family 2 is for shammuel and Gritil and 4 is samuel.
