To say "what's new with you?" in Yiddish, one might say, "vos hertzikh?", which means literally, "what does one hear?"

Interestingly, this construction has been translated directly from the Yiddish, which was in common usage by those who created Modern Hebrew, into Modern Hebrew as "mah nishmat?", as this phrase had no equivalent in the writings extant thus far and needed to be created.
