WHY YIDDISH - פֿאַרוואָס ייִדיש
Yiddish is a 1000 year old Eastern European Jewish language
with a rich history and literature
"My first story made a big impact on the Jewish masses and was soon published in a third edition... and then in a fourth edition... That story laid the cornerstone of Modern Yiddish Literature. From then on, my soul desired Yiddish, and I dedicated myself to it..."
(Mendele Moykhe Sforim, Jew in the Modern World, pg. 382)
Yiddish is spoken today by an ever-growing population
and is relevant to every aspect of life
