“and by the way, just because the Chasam Sofer says that a language should altered, doesn’t make that language a mitzva. or kadosh. according to that is just makes it muttar.
You make a good point, Moish.”
All the people who are touting Yiddish as a holy tongue, were brought up from infancy with that mindset. Had they been brought up as frum Jews in a home where Yiddish was not regarded as such, but only spoken among the bubbehs and Zaydehs of two generations ago as their CONVERSATIONAL language, they would not feel the same way as they so adamantly do. Everything is about what you are conditioned to do. If you were to be taught all your life that only Hebrew should be spoken in a Jewish home, you would think that, too. The only language apart from Hebrew that has intrinsic kedusha is the Aramaic that is the language of the Gemarah, (and maybe Greek, for a short time period).
Otherwise ANY language in which Torah is learned, could make that same claim, and that is ridiculous in the extreme. You can call an apple an orange all day, but at the end of the day it is still an apple. It might be a really terrific apple, well worth eating, and enjoying, but it will never be an orange, no matter how much you love apples.
