Well, Olde English is close to German, which is the origin of Yiddish, but it will not help you with Ivrit, LOL.

I meant maybe I have no talent learning spoken languages and should confine myself to learning textual languages, of which Old English is an example.
Maybe learning to read Beowulf in Old English would be like learning to read the Hebrew Bible, and easier than learning to speak and aurally understand any spoken language.
