Yiddish Stuff

The latest word from Harold Ticktin's Yiddish Vinkl is getroyen, meaning to trust; confide in.

Did you know that the multi-talented star James Cagney could speak Yiddish? If not, read this amusing article! (I liked learning that "one of the Warner brothers warned a colleague about to meet with Cagney that 'der goy farshteyt yidish' — this gentile speaks Yiddish.")
