Yiddish & Seinfeld . . Dentist Jokes

Dec 12, 2010 - It might interest you to know that the 'Litvak' (Lithuanian) pronunciation of Yiddish used here - which by the way is the exception in stage use - is definitely much easier for a German speaker to understand than the more widespread Polish/Galician pronunciation. Its speakers also consider themselves a cut above the rest; much Yiddish 'high culture' and top-level education in the first half of the 20th century centred on Vilna (Vilnius, capital of Lithuania).
