Yiddish in the United States
Who speaks Yiddish, and where they turn up.
Yiddish (ייִדיש) is a West Germanic language with Hebrew, Slavic and Aramaic elements, written in Hebrew script. Hasidic communities continue to use Yiddish as a primary language.
Brooklyn (Williamsburg, Borough Park, Crown Heights), Monsey / Kiryas Joel NY, Lakewood NJ and Rockland County host large Hasidic Yiddish-speaking communities.

Linguistic considerations
Getting Yiddish right.
Small choices — dialect, script, register — change whether a Yiddish session lands correctly. Here is what we watch for.
Dialect & variety
Hasidic spoken Yiddish (predominantly Hungarian-origin varieties) differs from YIVO-standard literary Yiddish. We match dialect and register to the setting.
Script & typography
Yiddish is right-to-left in Hebrew letters. We handle RTL DTP and manage Hebrew / English bilingual layouts (e.g. ketubot).
50-state coverage
