Cookie Kibitznik, your favorite Jewish mother, is back. She's a tell-it-like-it-is, unfiltered, power-walking, pool-jogging, brisket-making giver of sage advice! She's here to teach you Yiddish, and you'll be plotzing from laughter!
These
videos are not meant to compete with serious Yiddish language tutorials
such as the new Duolingo course or Rukhl Schaechter's Word of the Day
lessons from the Forward. They focus on Yiddish words that you probably
already know, but illustrate their use in hilarious ways. They are
produced and
acted out by a woman who reveals only her first name, Perri. In today's
video and other that we will be sharing in the coming weeks, she
assumes the identity of Cookie Kibitznik, a
yenta if we ever saw won.
In
this episode, Cookie shows how to wear a schmatte, and how not to be one.
Enjoy!
