	Hebrew phonology - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Hebrew phonology must take into account that the Hebrew language has been used primarily for liturgical purposes for most of the past two millennia.
		Currently, the only community of Hebrew-speakers which expresses this in speech are Yemenite Jews, whose Hebrew is much-influenced by Arabic phonetics (or rather not influenced by Yiddish and other European languages); however the emphasis led to several types of phonetic change that still exist.
		Although modern Hebrew pronunciation does not differentiate between the two, the latter is historically weaker due to its being a semi-vowel (/w/).

	vol4.217
		(Is there such a pastry in Polish or other Slavic language?) You can imagine that Yiddish phonology nativized it to _rogl_, reinterpretted this to be a diminutive to which the further imminutive may apply, and created _rogele_.
		I am not an adherent of the theory that Yiddish came into existence as a crypto-language invented by secretive Jews only so the non-Jews wouldn't be able to understand their dealings.
		Expressions which are used among groups to exclude outsiders can be found in any language, I don't think that the emergence of Yiddish can be sufficiently explained that way.

	Language Change
		language change - the structural evolution of a language over time; some languages die out (i.e., Manx, Tocharian) and other languages emerge as a consequence of cumulative changes in phonology, morphology, syntax, and semantics; here are two sources of language change:
		Third or fourth generation Jews know phrases and words in Yiddish, but cannot speak Yiddish.
		language maintenance - The continued use by a speech community of its traditional language despite the presence of another, usually socially dominant language.

	vol01.134
		As for the daled becoming a tes (or rather, if the original Hebrew pronounciation hadn't been corrupted, a tuv -- phonologically the real english th-sound) -- or its converse -- it is a very well-known phenomenon in phonology: cf 'ten' in English vs 'dix' in French, whatever the original indo-european might have been.
		Moreover, here in Alsace (the real birth-place of Yiddish!) as in many other German speaking provinces in Europe, one hears frequently "mispronounciation" of 'd' which becomes 't' (but _not_ vice-versa!).

	The Difference in Dialect (from language) -- Britannica Student Encyclopedia
		The word comes from the Ancient Greek dialektos “discourse, language, dialect,” which is derived from dialegesthai “to discourse, talk.” A dialect may be distinguished from other dialects of the same language by features of any part of the linguistic structure—the phonology, morphology, or syntax.
		Present and earlier forms of German, English, Dutch-Flemish, Afrikaans, Yiddish, Frisian, Danish, Norwegian, Swedish, Icelandic, and Faeroese belong to the family of languages called Germanic.
		Other Rhaetian dialects are Engadine, spoken in Switzerland in the Inn River valley; Ladin, spoken in the Alto Adige and Dolomites regions of northern Italy; and Friulian, spoken north of...

		The intention to eliminate the salient features of Ashkenazic Hebrew was not merely an attempt to dissociate the new Hebrew culture from Yiddish and Eastern European Jewish life.
		The distinct functional roles of orthography and phonology in the knowledge of Hebrew were thus merged into one.
		Traditionally, however, the study of Hebrew sound change has been described not in terms of changes in the rules of a grammar or the features of phonemic segments, but in terms of the different pronunciations assigned by different traditions to the orthographic symbols of written Hebrew.

	Spelling reform - free-definition
		While English spelling was relatively systematic during the Middle English period, the shift to modern English involved undergoing a Great Vowel Shift and many other changes in phonology.
		This criticism is corroborated by the experience of some peoples of the former Soviet Union whose language was switched from the Latin alphabet to the Cyrillic alphabet, notably Moldovans and (Yiddish-speaking) Jews.
		Proposed spelling reforms range from modest attempts to eliminate particular irregularities (such as Cut Spelling) to attempts to introduce a full phonemic orthography, like the Shavian alphabet or the Latinization of Turkish.
