Hebrew word meaning 'spring' or 'fresh,' most commonly known from Tel Aviv.
From Hebrew aviv, meaning 'spring season' or 'fresh ears of grain.' In ancient Hebrew, it referred to the month when barley ripened, corresponding to modern March-April.
Tel Aviv literally means 'Hill of Spring,' named after Theodor Herzl's novel 'Altneuland' (Old New Land) which was translated into Hebrew as 'Tel Aviv.' The city embodies its name - a place where ancient heritage meets modern innovation, like spring itself.
