@Gadolhadofi: How can you speak that way about Yiddish? Yiddish is the language used by holy Yidden and tzaddikim for a thousand years!
This is the language that they used for divrei Torah, shiurim, chizzuk, etc.
Most of the Rishonim and Acharonim that we learn learned the gemara with זאגט די גמרא, פרעגט די גמרא etc.
The very name of this language shows on its Jewishness.
In general, we see that from the 70 languages, there are certain languages which were uplifted by the fact that they were used for Torah and considered holy (e.g. Aramaic, Greek, etc.)
