Product description

Review

""A monumental achievement based on a life-time of labor by Dr. Mordkhe Schaechter, the greatest Yiddish lexicographer inmodern times, and edited by his closest students. This dictionary will be indispensible to those who study, speak and write Yiddish. Never again will mockers and scoffers be able to say there is no word for that in Yiddish ."" --David E. Fishman, Professor of History, Jewish Theological Seminary of America"

"This dictionary, twice as large as the best Yiddish dictionary we currently have in English, represents a major milestone in the history of Yiddish lexicography --the culmination of Mordkhe Schaechter's lifetime devotion to collecting and coining Yiddish words." Leyzer Burko, Forward"
