Such a good idea for a topic - students can find it so odd to encounter words that mean the same thing! I try to explain of course all languages have this, especially when they're spoken in many different countries like Yiddish has always been. For me the time terms שטענדיק, אַלע מאָל, תּמיד were so confusing to me when I was starting out. Not to mention the terms for evening meals.. אָװנטברױט? װעטשערע? װאַרעמעס? What do you use for that?

it was very very interesting! btw, can you tell a bit more about עץ?
@multisingual124118 сағат бұрын
Yes sure! It’s used as the plural version of “you” in certain select dialects like the Satmar Hungarian dialect. These are the pronouns in this dialect: איך- I דו- you singular informal ער- he זי- she איר-you singular formal (although it’s used as plural in many dialects) מיר- we עץ- you plural זיי- they It’s matched with the conjugation +טס. איך עס - עץ עסטסט איך לויף- עץ לויפטס Hope this cleared it up, but feel free to ask if you have any more questions about this! 😃

@@multisingual1241 I'm not sure about zman, I use it like a semester in school. Another word for season that's definitely academic and I think common in old literature though is sayzon. I just looked up autumn in my dictionary from 1898 in New York and it has 2 words. הערבסט and אָסען, the second I've forsure never heard before.
@KostyaT15 күн бұрын
@@josephdavidlandau Yes i've also heard Osen, it's from Slavic languages (used more in poetry). In the late 19th/early 20th century, academic Jews were a bit germanophilic, so maybe that's why they had "herbst" in the 1898 dictionary. On the other hand, late 20th century Yiddishsts were very anti-daytshmerish, so maybe that's why they got rid of "herbst" in favor of "harbst" in newer academic dictionaries. But multisingual's Yiddish is natural, so "herbst" must be a real variant, so I guess both variants exist, and different dictionaries might include different variants based on their language politics :)
