We are from the same town in Latvia . I grew up with the daughter in the same town. She still lives in Ludza. She sends a lot of pictures through social media. The town changed dramatically thanks to the European Union support. It's so sweet to hear them talk Yiddish!
Thank for sharing this. I am not Jewish but I would love to follow the conversation. My stepfather was Jewish and his mother was from Russia and came to NY at 14 with a family who were her parents friends. She was one of my favorite people in the world.
My great-grandfather and great grandmother were from Riga. Ben and Ray Solomon. They came to America in the early 1900's. They had half a dozen children who all spoke litvish Yiddish. My Zayde and Bubbe spoke it around us kids. It is wonderful to hear it spoken again after all these years! The older woman and my Zayde look very similar. Mishpoche?
Thank you, at least I can understand your Litvish Yiddish, what I hear mostly makes me feel like I lost most of it, so you proved me wrong, I really remember my first day of school and I couldn't understand of word of English
oy, this gladdens my heart. sounds like my grandparents generation from the shtetel Tulchin, halfway between Minsk and Smolensk and the otherf from Bilystock...i think its a similar accent...much closer to this than Yivo Yiddish
Tulchin is in Podolia (South Central Ukriane) and the dialect is very differen "tate, trink oys a gloz vaser" sonds there as "tote, trink uys a gluz voser".
Mother and daughter speak authentic Litvish (Northeastern) Yiddish and it's a delight to listen to them. The interviewer's Yiddish doesn't have that authentic quality.

Had family from Lithuania. Understood one word! Still great to hear.

I'm a goy. I mostly couldn't understand anything. Some "unds" and "mits". But WOW such a musical way of speaking she has!
this is perfect Litvish, I enjoyed

wish that there was a translation since I never learned to speak Yiddish.
Basically all the words are in the Galician dialect, and where is Litvak?
A Litvak is a Jewish person from Lithuania
Excellent 👍👍✡️🕎💗
