wow!!!

“So I think he made a language to mock LK. That’s why he decided to put the Sefardi pronunciation to it -to make fun of it (LK)”

Now we know that Jews should use the ashkenazi pronunication for Ivrit, must tell that to all my jerusalemite family. Forget Jerusalem the city of David and look forward to Vilna, Riga, Warsaw, Kiev, where yiddish was embraced and spoken so beautifully. Of course Yiddish is spoken by many Jews and quite right too, it is part of my heritage too, but I can sense a prejudice towards those whose kith and Kin do not hail from the lands of mama loshen.

Even that most extreme anti-zionist creature, the repugnant Meir Hirsh so recently featured on YWN praising our enemies spoke Ivrit with the correct modern Sefardi pronuciation. He actually spoke beautiful Ivrit but of course the content was grotesque and nauseating, well at least for some of us.
