Yiddish is not Hebrew. To those who call it a mama lashon, it’s not different than any other language which people grew up with but no longer reside where it is spoken. Whether it be Arabic, Farsi, Russian etc. Unfortunately, the reality is that Yiddish speakers tend to mispronounce Hebrew words in prayer quote often.
