5.0 out of 5 stars
One of the best-conceived language books I've seen., March 19, 1997
By A Customer
This review is from: Yiddish: An Introduction to the Language, Literature and Culture : A Textbook for Beginners (Paperback)
Ms. Zucker obviously spent a great deal of time designing this book. It is a very multifaceted text, with careful explanation of grammar, interesting readings and exercises, and even songs in every lesson. I have rarely seen such a beautifully conceived language book

5.0 out of 5 stars
You can learn Yiddish very quickly with this text!, April 28, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: Yiddish: An Introduction to the Language, Literature and Culture : A Textbook for Beginners (Paperback)
As a first-year student at Binghamton University (SUNY), I have been taking Yiddish for two semesters, and plan on continuting in the Fall. Mrs. Zucker's textbook has helped my classmates and I master basic Yiddish in this very short time period. I can read, write, and translate a lot of Yiddish thanks to her book. It is easy to follow and presented with simple and easy-to-understand concepts that seem to come naturally. The songs, stories, and folklore included in the book make it a pleasure to read and learn from. I would recommed this book to anybody!
