Next up in my popular "Tea and Wordlady" series:
Canada's
Word Lady
presents
Hebrew and Yiddish:
Alive and Well and Living in English
An entertaining talk about how
Hebrew
and Yiddish words have enriched English
for over 1200
years and continue to do so.
From messiah to maven, sabbath to
schnook,
English wouldn't be the same
without its Jewish heritage.
Full
afternoon tea (sandwiches, mini-quiche, scones, cream, and jam, fruit
and petits fours, pot of tea) including tax and tip, and
illustrated talk by Katherine
Barber
