לענה = Leana
Has nothing to do what so ever with Chernobyl the city where the reactor expoltion disaster occurred.
In Hebrew we use the plant (wormwood) name to describe bitterness
as we say מר כלענה = Mar Kaleana (bitter as a wormwood)
So:
wormwood = (Leana) לענה
Chernobyl = צ'רנוביל
As to Hebrew language learning - if you search the google for Hebrew learning kits I am sure you will find more than one.
