Yiddish developed as a fusion of Hebrew, Slavic languages, Romance language and Aramaic with German dialects. Origin of Yiddish can be traced back to the 10th century Ashkenazi culture in Rhineland which eventually spread to eastern and central Europe.

Hebrew is used for the writing system of Yiddish and its Jewish-related vocabulary words.
