All these oyf, bay, keyn, fun… So short but extremely important words that help us put the words in a phrase together. Prepositions usually have many meanings and can be used in different contexts. This seminar, ideal for Yiddish for beginners will focus on the ones that are most of all confusing for English speakers, i.e. the ones that sound like English prepositions but have completely different meanings. Participants will be able to ask questions, and we will do a lot of exercises together!
