商品簡介
All the color, vibrancy, and humor of Yiddish is captured in this timeless treasury of over 100 folk sayings in both English and Yiddish. From the profound (A meowing cat can't catch mice/A katz vos m'yavket ken kain meiz nit chapen) to the sublime (Man thinks and God laughs/A mentsh tracht un Got lacht) to the simply practical (When you look to the heights, hold on to your hat/Az du kukst oif hoichen zachen halt tsu dos hitl), Yiddish Wisdom collects the best the Old Country has to offer from an enduring wealth of proverbs, folk sayings, and phrases.
Whether you speak Yiddish or just enjoy the unique insight of those who do, Yiddish Wisdom will delight you with its wit, warmth, and thoughtfulness. Chagall-like illustrations by Kristina Swarner complete this entertaining collection - the perfect icebreaker for social gatherings, mah-jongg games, and coffee klatches, or a charming gift for any happy occasion. Your grandmother would be proud.
