  6. in those days, the whol eyeshiva functioned in Hebrew and English. Shiur was in Hebrew. (That is why I speak Hebrew so well, except for ym accent).
    Yiddish only came to the yeshiva much later.

  8. thanks to the internet we can now prolong the life of a dying (thank g-d) language. while in mitzrayim we were saved b/c of "lo shinom lishonum, malbushum, u'shaimosum", somehow in Europe -ONLY!!!- we lost lashon hakodesh and came up with a cholent language that became the "mama lashon".
