And for the record I was being extreme about my Yichus. I have family trees for both sides going back to when everyone was frum a few generations ago. The pre-war German Jews tried to be just like the Goyim. Even after the war, my relatives spoke German (never Yiddish). My dad’s side was the gefilte fish eating Yiddish speaking Yidden (who were actually Sephardic).
