Some Jews say it's a " holy language ". How can it be? It's like 70 to 80% German. I even understand it with the little German I know. I believe Chaim would say it's better not to speak the language of your enemies and speak Hebrew instead.

The Yiddish language was the one ‘mainly’
spoken in the diaspora by the Jewish people
in Europe and there are Jews that still use
some of the expressions of Yiddish as well
as speak it however, the official language of Jews
is that of Israel, the Hebrew language and the one
that should be be spoken.

One of the languages and a language that
some the Jewish people still speak and or
at least understand is Ladino.
