Ubiquitin and Lechaim, the Germans say the same things about Swiss German. and the Bavarians claim that they speak a different language than the Prussians.

AY, the Shela haKadosh brought down in Margoliot haYam says about “tot” and “fot” being from other languages (Sanhedrin 4b) that some words were lost from Lashon haKodesh and preserved in other languages. In any case, Israelis will readily tell you that these words are not Hebrew and even supply the official Hebrew word.
