SUMMARY:Yiddish 1: A Taste of Yiddish – Late Fall/Early Winter 2024 Session (Virtual)
DESCRIPTION:Beginners and those with a little knowledge are welcome!  We will review the Hebrew alphabet and learn the rudiments of reading. (Yiddish is phonetic and much easier than Hebrew).

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! \n\n\n\nThursdays\, November 21-January 23 (8 weeks; no class Nov. 28\, Dec. 26)Instructor: Norman BuderAges: 18+
