Why does Yiddish use the Hebrew alphabet if it's a separate language?
Though Yiddish, which uses Hebrew letters, looks similar when written down to a non-speaker of Yiddish or Hebrew, it is in fact an entirely different language.
Hebrew arose in the Middle East and falls into the Afro-Asiatic Semitic family of languages whereas Yiddish is an Indo-European Germanic language that arose in Germany and Eastern Europe - it is similar to Hochdeutsch, High German, which would have been the everyday language of Jews living in those areas (Hebrew would have been used during worship and rarely by women who were not required to learn it due to the outdated Jewish concept that females are "closer to G-d" and more holy than males), but uses the Hebrew letters with which they were familiar.
As it was spoken by Jews in many different nations, from Russia to Western Europe, is is sometimes called the first international language (others being Esperanto and Volupuk).
Yiddish essentially combined Hebrew alphabet and some words with German words and terms and was used by many of the Ashkenazi Jews of Europe.
