The original title when I was posting that is, "Yiddish for the Goyim." But they have changed it to, "Yiddish Theater for the Anglophones." (The original title is still there if you Google it) I guess some people were offended by being called oxen? Is Anglophone worse?

Is that what “goyim” means? Oy Vey, I’ve been called a helluva lot worse than that.

My good wife and I grew up in a time where we were exposed to Yiddish words and phrases by the old movies and TV shows. Uuuh, well, they were new then. strangely enough she has recently discovered that the Mennonites have a lot of the same or similar words and phrases.
