Description
Yiddish, You Say? Nu? A Yiddish Wordbook by Sasha Newborn is a comprehensive vocabulary of Yiddish terms, common expressions, and proverbs. This book explores the origins and usage of Yiddish, a language that grew out of Medieval German and Hebrew, and spread through Eastern Europe among Ashkenazi Jews. With its unique blend of cultural influences, Yiddish has contributed many terms to the English language, describing character or emotion in a way that is often uniquely nuanced.
