Re: [Cz-L] Goldener Loewe Hotel

Hedwig, in my French book on "Yiddish", it's written that 1.000 years ago,
Jews were living in, what is called today, the North of France, where they
spoke old French and Hebrew. Then they emigrate to the Rhineland, where they
create, with German, a language which could not be understood by the others.
Then, for economic reasons, they were pushed to emigrate toward the East of
Europe : Poland, Galicia, Hungary, Rumania, Russia. There, they really
started to speak Yiddish, beginning 1600. And then, little by little, the
language became in the East of Europe, what it is today. Before the WW1, 2/3
of the Jews spoke Yiddish there. The Sephardic Jews never knew Yiddish.
Hope all this is right.
All the best.
Lydia.
