What language is associated with Judaism?
Hebrew has always been the language of prayer for Jews. And when Israel was re-established in 1948, Hebrew was 'resurrected' and somewhat modernised, and made the official language of the Jewish homeland. In addition, Jews who settled in Europe also spoke and new Yiddish; this is a combination of Hebrew, German, and various other European languages including Romanian and Polish. It is a wonderfully expressive and colourful language but young Jews don't usually speak Yiddish; it was very much the language of the ghettos. Jews who settled in Spain and Portugal, had their own language, Ladino. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Why do Jews speak Yiddish?
All Jewish children, both boys and girls should learn Hebrew. It's the language of the State of Israel, the birthplace of Judaism. It is also the language of Jewish prayer.Answer:The State of Israel has nothing to do with it. Jewish boys and girls have been learning Hebrew for millenia, because it is the language of the Torah, halakha (works of Jewish law) and commentaries. Even the Talmud, which is in a mixture of Aramaic and Hebrew, cannot be understood without a thorough knowledge of Hebrew. No matter what country they lived in, the great majority of authors of Torah-works wrote in Hebrew.
