Joseph , I am sure I’m not the first one to tell it to you, you live in a different world than all of us. While I agree to some extent, to the concept of teaching in the very same mesorah we have been thought for the past hundreds of years, but to say Yiddish is “international” you are obviously living 40 yrs ago, nowadays even in Israel and Jerusalem, only a hand full of people speak Yiddish. Try getting around with Yiddish in Bnei Brak, or even most Haredi neighborhoods in Jerusalem. Yiddish is unfortunately a dying language, that only some Chasidim are speaking.
