About the Yiddish Language

Yiddish is the historical language of Ashkenazi Jewish communities — a Germanic language written in Hebrew script, with significant Hebrew, Aramaic, and Slavic vocabulary. Most of the world's roughly 600,000 active Yiddish speakers live in ultra-Orthodox Hasidic communities in New York (Williamsburg, Crown Heights, Borough Park, Monsey), New Jersey (Lakewood), and Israel. Our Yiddish translation work is overwhelmingly community-internal: marriage contracts (ketubahs), beth-din religious-court documents, and family records translated for civil court and inheritance purposes. Modern Yiddish translation requires not just language skill but familiarity with Orthodox Jewish legal and religious conventions.

  • Primary regions: Worldwide
  • Language origin / family: Central/Eastern Europe
