| Title |
Yiddish and Hebrew in Canada: The Current Situation
|
| Abstract |
Reviews Canadian census language data through 1996 to ascertain number, age group and urban locations of Yiddish and Hebrew (Ivrit) speakers, and summarizes the comparative strengths of these tongues in Canada, including Montreal, at the turn of the twenty-first century. Half of the current Yiddish speakers were born in Canada, mostly older or ultra-orthodox Jews, especially Montreal’s Hassidic community.
