Yiddish

Yiddish (ייִדיש, transliterated as Yidish or Yiddish) is a High German-derived language historically spoken by Ashkenazi Jews. It originated around the 10th century in Central Europe and was later widely spoken by Jews in Eastern Europe, particularly in the Pale of Settlement of the Russian Empire. Yiddish is written in the Hebrew alphabet and incorporates elements from various languages, including Hebrew, Aramaic, Old French, Old Italian, Old Spanish, Old Church Slavonic, and more recently, English, Russian, and Polish. The language has a rich literary tradition, with notable works by authors such as Sholem Aleichem and Isaac Bashevis Singer. Yiddish is also known as Jiddisch in German, Yidish in Dutch, and Yidishe in Spanish. Despite a decline in native speakers due to the Holocaust and assimilation, Yiddish has experienced a revival in recent decades, with efforts to preserve and teach the language in communities and academic institutions worldwide.
