It was like a secret language, because only they could understand what they were saying True story. After my Dad got back from Korea, he used the GI Bill to go to watchmaking school. His first job out of school was in a jewelry store. True to the stereotype, the owner was Jewish. His friends would come over and they would hang around in back, talking. In Yiddish, because what goyim understands Yiddish? Now my Dad was born into a German-Czech community in the Bryan/College Station area. German language newspaper and all. My grandmother didn't learn English until she was an adult. Do you know that Yiddish is derived from German? One day he couldn't take it any more and answered when one of them asked a question. Sudden silence. They stopped hanging around in the back.
