A Quick Lesson in Daily Yiddish - A Funny Conversation in the Park
Do you use Yiddish words in everyday conversation? These two guys do, while enjoying a game of chess in a park.
They manage to include 16 words that should be in everyone's basic vocabulary, including shvitz, schmutz, schmatte, tuches, nosh, plotz, and ten others.
The conversation flows easily, and the Yiddish words are integrated with English while a pretty accurate English translation appears on the bottom of the screen.
Enjoy!
