Yiddish...
"Yiddish, in varying forms, is the mother tongue of
almost 4
million Jews throughout the world.
Although spoken by more
than three times that number before World War II, the atro-
cities of anti-Semitism in Germany, Soviet limitations on Jewish
cultural expression, and the integration of American Jewry with
the mainstream of American life have considerably diminished
its use. A linguistic descendant of Medieval German, spoken
Yiddish displays varying regional admixtures of Hebraisms and
borrowings from local languages. The dispersion of the Euro-
pean Jews after World War II and their subsequent contact
with other languages, particularly with English in the USA, has
caused widening regional differences. Since the late 19th century
several attempts to find an acceptable standard usage have been
made."--1000 Tongues, 1972 [Info only]
