Re: [Cz-L] Die Peschl

Pure Yiddish, was the Yiddish found in the books of Mendale Mocher Sforim,
or Peretz and as spoken in Lithuania. We in the Bukovina pronounced Yiddish
differently; we said "woos" instead of "wos", "kimm aher: instead of "koom
aher", etc. Our German included many Yiddish words,but we misspelled our
Yiddish as if it was German. In addition we included a lot of Ukrainian or
Ruthenian words, such as "vetchern" for having the evening meal, "Kwotchka"
for an egg laying chicken, "szabe" for frog, "shchor" for rat.

Quite possibly, Yiddish developed into such a rich language, because for
generations it did not have definite rules and was free to adopt words from
a lot of different languages.
