The Litvak Yiddish came to Cz with the Soviet Yiddish schools.
Not only pronunciation strange to our ears but new words :
We said senen (are) they said saynen.
We said kugeln ( bullets) they said koilen.
We said explosie they said oifreiss.
Many more - do you recall ?

The use of Shul instead of Schul is an influence of the "Litwickes"
the Jews from Lituania. They pronounce for example Boruch instead of
the Galizian and Czernowitzeer Burich. The Hebrew vowell "Vaw" is
pronounced as the English
"e" in evil in Czernowitz etc and as the two "oo" in root in
Lituania. Hence Schil in Czernowitz is Schul in Lituania.
