ACADEMY OF THE HEBREW LANGUAGE

The 'Academy of the Hebrew Language' (הָאָקָדֶמְיָה לַלָּשׁוֹן הָעִבְרִית, '') is the "Supreme Foundation for the Science of the Hebrew Language", founded by the Israeli Government in 1953. The Academy is responsible for creating new Hebrew words to keep up with today's rapidly changing society. In addition, the Academy has the final say concerning matters of spelling and grammar. The organization, whose tasks include creating new Hebrew words to replace non-Hebrew words, doesn't have a Hebrew name itself, being called "aqademya"[1].
