    Did you understand what he said? Or Western Yiddish was not quite intelligible for you?

    Not quite. Judeo-German-later known as Yiddish-is based on a number of Late Middle German and Early Modern German (not “old german”) varieties-mostly Rhenish and Alemannic ones. However it is full of Hebrew and Aramaic elements. Added to this are numerous terms and expressions from Slavic languages in Eastern Yiddish (which are absent from Western Yiddish). Uninitiated German speakers might be able to get the general gist of very simple Yiddish (transliterated) texts. However, Yiddish texts dealing with things like religion, higher learning and Jewish lifestyle are pretty much beyond comprehension for German speakers. Added to that are the many Slavic and Romanian loanwords in Eastern Yiddish.
