I know. I am aware. I am not that serious about being embarrassed about Hebrew alphabet. Was a bit of inside joke. I took a class in my synagogue mainly because of my own kid making fun of me at services having to read English transcription.

My pronunciation in Hebrew is good. Pronunciation isn’t an issue. My issue was with reading. Those aren’t the same things. I just had hard time with the alphabet. It required practice. I read, write and speak and am proficient in 3 different languages that use three different alphabets. So I assume how hard would that be to learn the 4th! I’ve learned English in my 30s. Guess reading Hebrew was a different story. I don’t give up!

Yiddish is on endangered languages list. Yes there is one. So that’s a reality
