Dear Abraham,
  You are hereby elected as Chairman of the Authentic Czernowitz Yiddish
Committee.
    Nobody is more worthy the you for this title.
      When you ask me what I spoke way back in Cz. I cannot really tell you=
.
        Depending with whom ,at what time .
           We would switch in and out of all the necessary languages withou=
t
             being aware .
                We read Rumanian and Yiddish and of course German .
            We cursed in Russian ,Ukrainean and Yiddish.
                But never in German ! Never heard German insults.
                               Hardy
