- YUNG YiDiSH (www.yiddish.co.il) is pleased to present an original recording of Ben Gurion giving a public speech in Yiddish in Sweden 1963. Special thanks goes to Alex Dafner from the SBS Radio Yiddish Program's Web, Podcasts and App for airing this rare recording.
Ben-Gurion had a famously contradictory relationship to the Yiddish language, his mother-tongue. On the one hand as David Grun he was one of if not the most important Yiddish language journalist and editor from the 1910s-1930s in Ottoman and later British-Mandate Palestine and he published his first two Zionist tracts in Yiddish. On the other hand he personally yelled at a Jewish Holocaust survivor and Partisan giving a speech in Yiddish (as she knew no Hebrew) to stop speaking saying the language grated on his ears and is believed to have personally oversaw the semi-banning of Yiddish in Israel in the media and theater in the earliest years of the state. And yet 15 years later here he is speaking in Yiddish in Sweden. (Thanks to Jordan Kutzik for this additional information)

What a shame that nowadays only 51 years later, practically the only people in the world to understand this speech live outside Israel. An of those living 'in country,' that still do understand, None would deign to listen to a speech by Ben Gurion regardless of whether it's in 'Mama Loshon' or not...
In Israel many haredim speak Yiddish
Yiddish is Yidden. Hebrew is for Israelis
Ben Gurion spoke Yiddish better than Hebrew and he was no friend of the Jews to begin with.
שלמה, דו ביסט גערעכט׃ ייִדיש װי אַ טויזנט־יאָריקער טײל פֿון דער ייִדישער װעלט־קולטור װאָלט טאַקע געװען אַ באַרײַכערונג פֿאַר דער ישׂראלדיקער נאַציאָנאַלער קולטור!
yes, but also take into consideration that israel is not made up of just ashkenazi jews. there are russian jews, sephardic jews, arab jews from yemen, indian jews, ethopian jews, central asian jews. It is not right to make the national language of Israel Yiddish and except people who've never heard this language to learn Yiddish. BUT it would have been nice if the ashkenazim in Israel still spoke Yiddish as it is their mother-tonuge.
Russian Jews are mostly Ashkenazi ,
הרוסים היהודים אשכנזים.
Russian Jews are Ashkenazi Jews and as such, they also speak Yiddish. However, there are loan words from Slavic languages that have made their way into the Yiddish vernacular. In addition, there is a significant population of Yiddish first-language speakers in Israel. As you can imagine they mostly come from orthodox Ashkenazi background.
Ethiopians not are Jews
"Rercordierung"????????? OFNAHME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
This is not true! A lot of Israelis speak or understand yiddish kein ayn haroe
Very few!1
Kein ayne hore!😍
Ben Gurion was a fanatical Atheist
Tony Cox what's wrong with that?
simon caymer yeah that's what Reform Judaism is for
Ben A When it comes to the jews the very notion of atheism is wrong
Dear Sir or Madam,
Good day.
It is my pleasure and honor to send this letter to you.
I would like to give you some pictures and hopefully you can provide me with some information.
This manuscript dates back to the Ottoman period and is written in ancient Hebrew. I am looking for someone who translates the language and extracts a certificate from it. If possible, publish it in one of your opening articles and be part of your group.
Thank you very much for the respect, appreciation and fruitful work of mankind.
Best Regards

@@ГалюняПархоменко I apologize for having been born. But it really wasn’t my fault.
До латинского на севере Евро был идиш, старофранцузский
zionism is not judaism
sounds like german.
@@ajshapiro1269 Yiddish is an independent and complete Jewish language which has embodied Ashkenazic culture for more than a thousand years. Yiddish has its own phonology (sound system), its own sentence structure (syntax), its own grammar and its own regional variants. Yiddish phraseology is light-years away from any form of German; it is original and unique. The influence of biblical Hebrew and Aramaic and of Slavic (mainly Polish, Ukrainian, Belorussian) has remodeled every part of speech. Yiddish is a harmonious blend and is definitely not a German dialect. Nowadays every dabbler and know-nothing makes disparaging statements about the beautiful and wonderfully expressive Yiddish language, which has produced a rich and varied literature. For purposes of comparison: Portuguese is not a Spanish dialect; Norwegian is not a dialect of Swedish; Dutch is not a German dialect; Slovak is not a dialect of Czech; Belorussian is not a Russian dialect --- they are independent languages and cultures. Yiddish as a historical, cultural and linguistic phenomenon is in a class by itself. [This comment has been written by a professional Yiddish (, Slavic and French) linguist whose mother tongue is Yiddish. He has taught the language to thousands of college students. For many years he was a Yiddish journalist, with articles published in France, America and Israel. ]
no shit.
@@renedupont1953 A language is a dialect with an attitude, a lobby and a written standard. German has very divergent dialects all with their own phonology, morphology and syntax, and the ancestors of some of these dialects already existed when German, as yet unstandardized, was first regularly written in the 9th century. The Germanic basis component of Yiddish is clearly within the spectrum of variance of German dialects. To be precise, it is a new high German dialect (or language, if you prefer), and closer to standard German than some other variants of German. Yiddish speakers called their language daitsh/taitsh well into the 19th century.
@@ajshapiro1269 It is actually not a German dialect at all. It is actually older than modern German. It left Proto German before German did. They is why Yiddish does not have the consonant shift and German does. Example. In yiddish we say Apèl for apple and in German they say: Apfel. The F came into the picture after, Yiddish split away from Proto German and thus you can see, German is a bit younger. And Yiddish does have a mixture of words from other languages but so does English for example.
@@ajshapiro1269 I guess you do not know the history of Yiddish
