Facebook is a company. The gender of the word company in Hebrew is feminine. Meaning, when we describe Facebook, we'll use feminine conjugations. So far, so good? Bear with me.
Now, the word Meta (in Hebrew letters of course - מֵתָה)
are actually the feminine conjugation of the present tense verb dead. When facebook calls itself Meta, a Hebrew speaker hears dead. Facebook is dead. Considering facebook's recent troubles, the new name is hilarious.
