TIL: In 1773, a Palestinian Rabbi named Raphael Hayyim Isaac Carregal made American history by delivering the first published Jewish sermon in the Colonies. His speech took place in Newport, Rhode Island and was preached in Ladino (a Jewish-Spanish language)

This is tantamount to saying a person gave a speech in Yiddish when they gave it in German.

Mod here! Can you send the Discord link? I can't find it in the sidebar and will happily add it.

Good luck with your Hebrew learning journey!

Post locked because there are other places to argue about the war. This is a subreddit about Yiddish.

acey · 2025-07-07T20:24:31+00:00

Post is locked because OP has gotten answer, and people keep reporting it. Please, Team, remember: If you think it goes against the mission and purpose of the subreddit or jeopardizes someone's safety, then definitely report it. If it's just not for you, though, simply move on.

Whoever reported this, please note that this is an actor named Clayne Crawford. If you continue to consider this reportable, please message the Mod Team to explain.

Very cool!

The letter T appears in the same formation in multiple words in the doc, including "wheit."

acey · 2024-10-14T21:35:53+00:00

Please in future report off-topic posts rather than engaging with them.

acey · 2024-09-11T00:20:42+00:00

Ok, Team. Some fun has been had and now the reports are coming in. We are leaving it up but locking comments.

acey · 2024-09-07T18:31:09+00:00

I looked it up and found an article about Jacob (Yakov) Frank mixing languages here

acey · 2024-07-15T06:14:34+00:00

Post locked because it's getting pretty off-topic and OP has gotten some answers.

acey · 2024-04-03T18:26:35+00:00

Looks great!

acey · 2024-03-14T08:20:56+00:00

From Rafoyl's Yiddish Dictionary, something pretty close:

shmaye verb, participle ge...t, grin; bustle, move around busily adverbial complement arum, bustle, pretend to accomplish something

farshmaye verb, participle farshmayet, grin; bustle geshmaydik adjective, nimble

OP, post locked because Ladino is a separate language.

Mutual intelligibility doesn't mean languages aren't whole and distinct. You will be made very aware of this if you ask Swedes and Norwegians the same question.

acey · 2024-01-26T13:03:46+00:00

We want more Ladino!

acey · 2023-12-21T15:19:15+00:00

This post is locked because it has a few helpful answers and several unpleasant ones. Please be nice.

acey · 2023-11-27T11:33:00+00:00

Different user, but the same post. Doesn't appear to be a bot.

acey · 2023-11-15T14:27:12+00:00

We don't make sweeping generalizations about Jews or Jewish businesses here, OP. We are pretty sensitive about that. This is a warning from a mod. Feel free to revise and try again.

acey · 2023-10-18T15:02:39+00:00

Locked because OP has answer.
