My ds (4 1/2) asked his Totty “how do you say soon in Yiddish?” Totty said “Balt”, so ds asks “Like Balt tashchis?” You can tell how much Yiddish we speak!!

We hardly use Yiddish at all at home (dh and I are BTs and only get words here and there) but my son is just now adjusting to it.

I taught Schneur Shema and I can't help Saying Emes at the end instead of Emet...(even though the rest of my kriat shema is the Israeli pronounciation(for no other reason than that was the way I learned and it is easier for me)
He said "No, Ima, Emet, Emet"

Then one day he said "From now on, I will say Emes instead of Emet!
And he pointed to the picture of the Rebbe and said "From now on, I will say Rebbe instead of Rabbe (the way the Israelis say it)..."

I wonder what happened in gan to change his mind? LOL

My FIL ob'm really wanted my son to learn Yiddish...iy'h I hope to find a tutor one day...once they master the Hebrew...
