Jokes\, proverbs\, songs\, and even a few curse words\, will not be ignored. Study materials will be provided via email and Word documents\, in Hebrew letters as well as in transliteration. Learn this hybrid language used by our ancestors\, that has become quite popular today!Instructor: Norman BuderThursday\, September 5-November 14 (8 weeks; no class Oct. 3\, 17\, 24)Ages: 18+
