Re:[Cz-L] Yiddish Committee

Dear Hardy,
Who is the president of the authentic Yiddish Committee ?
I did not tell you that no matter that at the Fabriksgasse one used to spea=
k
Czernowitzer Deutsch (als Umgangssprache), at home at least until the age o=
f
4-5 we spoke Yiddish. In addition please bear in mind that during the firs=
t
Soviet occupation (1940-1941) I attended the "Yiddishe Mittelshul Nimmer
Finef" on the Austriaplatz, across the street from the NKVD prison. Since =
I
not only had to study Yiddish grammar and literature, the teaching language
for Algebra, Zoology, Chemistry, etc. was Yiddish.
My Yiddish teacher, used to even explain the difference between Litvisch
Yiddish, Galizianer/ Warshever, Bukowiner and Bessarabisch Yiddish.

So now, would you recommend me to become the president of the authentic
Yiddish Committee ?

Ich wuensche uns alle: "Andere Sorgen sollen wir nicht mehr haben".
Regards, Abraham K.
