- I never understood a bit of Yiddish until I started to understand a bit of German.
- In my understanding Yiddish is a German language seasoned with words and sentences in Hebrew, Aramaic and possibly other Judaic languages (it might also have some of its own unique words).
- Recently I understood that some researchers such as [Abraham Polak](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Abraham_Polak) have suggested fringe theories according to which the base of Yiddish is not German but Turkic (and that Polak claimed it started to have been developed in Crimea).
Polak also claimed another claim that as far as I know, no historian today accepts, that the Khazar empire was destroyed by Mongol hordes around 1230; but that's contradicted by all evidence that the Khazar empire was destroyed by Sviatoslav king of the Rus in 965-969; I guess that Polak was significantly biased on the Yiddish-Khazar matter.
