Mishnah שביעית ז׳:ז׳ · Sheviis 7:7
וֶרֶד חָדָשׁ שֶׁכְּבָשׁוֹ בְּשֶׁמֶן יָשָׁן,
יְלַקֵּט אֶת הַוֶּרֶד.
וְיָשָׁן בְּחָדָשׁ,
חַיָּב בַּבִּעוּר.
חָרוּבִין חֲדָשִׁים שֶׁכְּבָשָׁן בְּיַיִן יָשָׁן,
וִישָׁנִים בְּחָדָשׁ,
חַיָּבִין בַּבִּעוּר.
זֶה הַכְּלָל,
כָּל שֶׁהוּא בְנוֹתֵן טַעַם, חַיָּב לְבַעֵר, מִין בְּשֶׁאֵינוֹ מִינוֹ.
וּמִין בְּמִינוֹ, כָּל שֶׁהוּא.
שְׁבִיעִית אוֹסֶרֶת כָּל שֶׁהוּא בְּמִינָהּ, וְשֶׁלֹּא בְמִינָהּ, בְּנוֹתֵן טָעַם:
A new rose that one pickled in old oil -
he must gather out the rose.
And an old [rose] in new [oil] -
it is subject to biur.
New carobs that one pickled in old wine,
or old ones in new [wine] -
they are subject to biur.
This is the rule:
anything that imparts flavor, one is obligated to remove, [when it is] one kind in [a mixture of] a different kind.
And [when it is] one kind in its own kind, [it is forbidden in] any amount.
Sheviis [produce] prohibits in any amount in its own kind, and not in its own kind, [only] when it imparts flavor:
A reading aid, not an exact translation.

This English is a clause-by-clause rendering to help you follow the Hebrew. It is not word-for-word literal, and it is not a transcript of the recorded shiur — the audio carries explanation and context the translation deliberately leaves out.

CaseRulingReason
What is done with a Sheviis rose preserved in oil of the sixth year?He picks out the petal — that is enough (fresh, it has not yet flavored the oil)—
And if a Sheviis rose sits in oil of the eighth year?Chayav in biur — the year-old petal has already flavored the oil—
And what of carobs preserved in wine — old wine or new?Either way, chayavin in biur — carobs always impart their taste—
How much Sheviis in a mixture forbids it?Same kind (min b'mino) — any amount
Different kinds — only by imparting taste		—
