Just in case you missed this on the front page here it is again...
My deep love on Teaching and Learning comes through in my Youtube Channels and my commitment to developing learning resources for Adults (like myself) learning Yiddish, not only a language for Jews. Yiddish is a container for a deeper essence of unconditional love and connection to something greater than the self. Built by Jews who suffered and regained stability many times over, and who never lost their deep respect for life and a treasuring love of it. People do not need necessarily to learn Yiddish, they can feel the love in the sounds and the people who are devoted to the language and its culture. No one needs to already belong, to fall in love with Yiddish. It is not just a language it is a portal from the past which can lift you and assist you into a better future.
This is the web page you can bookmark and return to. Here you will find all the resources I am creating for Adult Yiddish Learners.
Have a browse, and enjoy!

My songs all have Lyrics pages which are available for free (umzist). You can read them online, and download the PDF. You will find (from right to left) the Yiddish, then moving to the left, the transliteration, then on the left the direct translation.
Feel free to use these songs to study. Or suggest them to your teacher as a fun activity for your classroom.

I don't know about you, but I need to widen my vocabulary, focus on the definite articles, practice conjugations of subject, direct objects and indirect objects.
I may have swapped my DuoLingo learning over to music now but I carry with me the urge to continue the repetition it provided me. So I am beginning to make FlashCards I can use on my iPhone and iPad. I found an app which will play a game with me. I'm sure I will look into find even better apps to help me memorise the little yet very important things.
For now I am building themed lists of words, uploading these lists into my app and developing them while I get used to all the very important little things.
Once I have a completed list I will provide a link here.
I'll also give my recomendation (for MAC) for Flashcard apps.
