To say “good night” in Hebrew, say לילה טוב (laila tov). It is the standard sign-off, the same for anyone, man or woman. For “sweet dreams,” Israelis often add חלומות פז (chalomot paz), literally “golden dreams.” Type it in English and a translation keyboard sends the Hebrew straight into your chat.
Good night is the last message of the day, and a soft one to get right. Here is the standard phrase and the warmer line Israelis send just after it.
The sign-off is לילה טוב (laila tov). לילה (laila) is “night” and טוב (tov) is “good.” It does not change with gender, so the same two words close the night with anyone.
The warm follow-up is חלומות פז (chalomot paz), literally “golden dreams,” the everyday Hebrew for “sweet dreams.” Sending laila tov and then chalomot paz is a soft, natural way to say good night to someone you care about, and it stays the same whoever you are wishing.
A goodnight text is a small daily ritual, so it should be one tap, not a trip through a translator right when you are ready to put the phone down. A translation keyboard like Bridgi lets you type in English and send the Hebrew straight into WhatsApp, so laila tov goes out in the chat you are already in. And you will send it again tomorrow night, which is exactly where keeping it in Hebrew, in place, quietly adds up.
You write לילה טוב (laila tov). Hebrew reads right to left, so the words run in the other direction from English.
No. Laila tov is the same whoever you are saying good night to, so it is an easy phrase to use.
חלומות פז (chalomot paz), literally “golden dreams.” It is the common Hebrew for “sweet dreams.”
לילה (laila) means “night.” Paired with tov (“good”), it makes “good night.”
