May one answer in Hebrew-"Yehi Shmo Hagadol Mevorach LeOlam UleOlmei Olamim"?

Answer

One may indeed answer in Hebrew-"Yehi Shmo Hagadol Mevorach LeOlam UleOlmei Olamim". The last part "LeOlam UleOlmei Olamim" may be omitted if  one so wishes since this is in accordance with the original minhag in both Eretz Yisrael and Bavel.

If one chooses to answer in Hebrew then one should do so softly enough so as to not attract undue attention assuming that the rest of the tzibbur is answering using the generally used Aramaic.
