A bumper episode with two guests talking about contemporary Yiddish culture! I have a little rant about the importance of speaking Yiddish, even when your Yiddish isn’t perfect, and how grateful I am that so many learners share recordings with me.

Episode 9 // Season 5
מיר רעדן װעגן די סאָװעטישע ייִדן װאָס מען האָט דערהרגעט דעם 12טן אױגוסט 1952. און איך לײען אַ ביסל פֿון אַ ליד פֿון פּרץ מאַרקיש.
An episode in honour of the 12th of August, when people remember the Soviet Jews murdered by Stalin's regime on this date in 1952. Why is this night referred to as “The night of the murdered poets”? I discuss the Jewish Anti-Fascist Committee and a little about the fate of the 13 Soviet Jews who were executed. I also read an excerpt from a poem by one of the murdered poets, Peretz Markish. Markish read this poem at the funeral of his friend Shloyme Mikhoels who was also on the committee and was the first to be murdered.
This is a bit of a complex topic so don’t forget to read the transcript if you get confused. There are also links there to find out more about the history, and a translation of the poem excerpt.

We’re back with a fourth season of Yiddish listening practice on Proste Yiddish. This episode: my favourite story to tell about my cat Prince, and a short report from a listener about the history of the Yiddish language and its dialects. If you find it a bit challenging remember you can adjust the playback speed in your player and follow the transcript to help with your comprehension.
