SUMMARY:Yiddish Language Class: Advanced Beginner Yiddish In-Person
DESCRIPTION:Course Description: This joyful and inclusive class is a celebration of Yiddish grammar\, vocabulary\, history\, and culture. Join us for a weekly session where we practice conjugating verbs\, declining noun phrases\, and putting together increasingly-complex sentences in the ancestral mother tongue of ashkenazic jewry. Ask questions\, get answers\, and find camaraderie with other learners on a guided tour of the grammar and structure and culture of this wondrous Jewish language. \nLevel: For students who have taken a BWC Beginner course. Also open to those who already know the Yiddish aleph beys\, some basic grammar & vocabulary\, and who feel the class description fits their level\, including those who have worked through Duolingo and feel ready to dive into more conversation and culture. \nInstructor: Jonah Sidman \nMaterials: Colloquial Yiddish by Lily Kahn. Students can purchase this textbook from The Yiddish Book Center\, Routledge Textbooks\, or at other on-line sites.

SUMMARY:Yiddish Language Class: Intermediate Yiddish Virtual
DESCRIPTION:Course Description: Build confidence in your Yiddish – reading\, speaking\, listening\, and writing\, in a supportive and welcoming classroom of intermediate Yiddish students\, as we delve into the treasure trove of short stories by Sholem Aleichem\, one of the most celebrated authors in all of Yiddish literature. In this class\, you will find abundant opportunities to stretch and grow your Yiddish\, as we work together to make the leap from the textbook’s careful examples into the vast and exciting world of Yiddish literature. We’ll read slowly\, translate continuously\, and look up every unfamiliar word as we delight in the hilarious and heart-wrenching adventures of Menachem-Mendl\, Sheyne-Sheyndl\, Tevye der Milkhiker\, and other beloved characters from the canon of Sholem Aleichem. \nLevel: This class is appropriate for students who can read and understand Yiddish sentences with the help of a dictionary. BWC students who have completed Advanced Beginner\, those who want to continue in Intermediate\, and newcomers at this level are all welcome to join. \nInstructor: Abby Howell \nMaterials: The Complete Works of Sholem Aleichem. Students can find this text online for free here.
