[Cz-L]Yiddish the funny language.

   In Israel Yiddish was boycotted.
    "Hebrew man , speak Hebrew !" was on wall posters in the early
    settlement years.
      Then - all of us spoke Hebrew.
        Then somebody discovered that Yiddish was a funny language.
         (This never occurred to me ! )
       They started mocking Yiddish in stand-up shows.
        The public found it immensely hillarious.
              But not only in Israel, the same happened in America...
    Here goes Mickey Katz:

    Very funny, not ?
