Shalom,

There are some places we cannot live without, especially if we are driving. A gas station is one of these places. If you drive in Israel, you should know how to ask for gasoline and understand the gas station worker. Recently, convenience stores were added to gas
stations in Israel, and a name was created for them: convenience stores .

In this newsletter, we'll meet some useful words and phrases for a driver at a gas station. We even have some names related to gas station. You may be wondering what kinds of names are related to gas stations. Well, we chose Israeli brand names of gas companies that are also people's names.

Good Bye
Le'hitra'ot
