Yes, of course. Since about 1990 over 100,000 Jews - mainly from the former Soviet Union - have settled in Germany.
For a very long time the native language of German Jews has been German. Since the collapse of the Soviet Union (1991) a significant number Jews from the former Soviet Union (perhaps as many as 150,000) have settled in Germany. The second generation generally speaks German, the first generation a range of languages, which often includes Russian and Yiddish.

There are between 5000 and 10,000 Jews in Germany. ____ Since 1991 there has been a significant influx of Jews from the former Soviet Union. Jewish organizations in Germany give the total figure of about 110,000 Jews overall in Germany. Some other sources (using an ethnic as well as religious defintion) put the figure at about 200,000.
