Jewish Languages, From One Generation To The Next
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 26 сен 2024
- Throughout history Jews have spoken dozens of languages, many of which are now critically endangered. To preserve these languages for the future, now is the time to act. As this short film demonstrates, some grandparents and grandchildren are taking this charge seriously, teaching and learning endangered languages, such as Ladino/Judeo-Spanish (Ottoman Empire), Judeo-Arabic (Syria), Judeo-Yazdi (Yazd, Iran), and Hulaulá (Sanandaj, Iran). Much work remains to document these and other languages before it's too late.
This film premiered at the "Gala Celebrating the Documentation of Endangered Jewish Languages" on Sunday October 17th, 2021 (see full credits below). The Gala was an online event organized by the Jewish Language Project, Wikitongues and Living Tongues Institute for Endangered Languages. We have committed to recording speakers of endangered Jewish languages and making an incredible array of digital resources such as video oral histories and online Living Dictionaries available to the public.

The funds will be used towards:
- Recording and safeguarding oral histories by fluent speakers, and making those recordings accessible online through RUclips
- Editing, captioning and subtitling videos so they are multilingual and useful for educational and research purposes
- Collecting data and recording audio to create Living Dictionaries in multiple endangered Jewish languages
- Training the next generation of language activists to continue this documentation and revitalization work for years to come.

Magnificent! Thank you for this great video! It's really important to know the language of your ancestors 💙
Wholesome and important work!! Greetings from Milan. 🇮🇹
Wonderful. Ladino is readily understandable to anyone who knows contemporary Spanish or Portuguese.
JudeoYazdi is just Persian with some Hebrew words. I mean it's just a dialect at best not a separate language.
As an Assyrian I understand completely hulaula dialect ! Se bakhta guur! So cool
Lakbet or lebayet Bakhta gooret?
Mama-loshn (Yiddish)? Wu?
Sounds like they're trying to cough up phlegm and spit the while time they're taking
2:16 and 2:54 Maybe they should meet.

Outcast language
The last language that you wanna learn on earth.
Arabic is the only Semitic language with actual cultural heritage and natural progression through the millennia. As witnessed by the gazillion works of science, literature, art and poems written in it.
Judeo-Arabic is - literally - Arabic. You can’t just speak Syrian/Levantian Arabic and then slap “Judeo” on it. We already have the Assyrians doing that.
Couldn’t have said this as beautiful as you put it. Thank you!
Yes, exactly. It's a Levantine dialect of Arabic, having some words of ancient Hebrew here and there. If they speak it in Syria and Lebanon, no one's gonna tell they're a Jew.
The ONLY Semitic language? That's so very wrong
