Sholom Aleichem and welcome to Yiddish-Translation.com, the online home for people searching for information about Yiddish and help translating the Yiddish language.
Yiddish was the mama-loshen (mother tongue) of the Jewish people throughout much of Europe for close to 1,000 years. It is a hybrid of German, Hebrew, Aramaic, and Slavic languages. In other words, it’s as rich, complex and diverse as the Jewish communities that molded it. There are Jewish communities where Yiddish is still widely spoken and taught, and the language continues to morph and adapt to the times.
Yiddish is a language rich in history, culture and memory, and though most Jewish people cannot speak it fluently nowadays, it remains a source of identity and many words and phrases have been maintained. For this reason, many people are seeking translations of Yiddish words, books, songs, personal letters and documents, and more. If this is you, then Yiddish-Translation.com is here to help!
