Dear all,

This is my first posting to the list. I'm so glad to have found it!

I have a question about dialects. I believe that my family - the
Pickers - spoke Yiddish as their first language but understand that they
spoke German as well. However, I have been told that it was a particular
dialect rather than what we now think of as mainstream German. Does
anyone on the list know what this dialect might have been, and if it
even had a name? I would love to know.

Kind regards to you all,

Shula Klinger
Vancouver, Canada
