About the Yiddish Language

Yiddish is both old and new, traditional and innovative.Yiddish developed about a thousand years ago in Ashkenaz. Over time, the language traveled wherever Ashkenazi Jews migrated. Moreover, it is still spoken today by more than a million people.In addition, it is studied worldwide by people who want access to Yiddish literature, music, theater, humor, history, and film.While Yiddish uses the Hebrew alphabet, it is a Germanic language. Because of this, English speakers often find it easier to learn than expected.
