Yiddish is the Jewish language hence the name. The only reason so many people dont speak it is because people (no offense avi k) people like you are suggeting against. well of coarse it wont spread. and also yiddish is not even close to dying. Many chassidim and yeshivish litvaks still speak it in there homes today. Yidden stopped speaking hebrew because it wasnt b’chavodik to use it for ovdei chol. Therefor they made yiddish. Maybe yiddish speakers shrunk significantley that doesnt mean we cant learn it and bring it back.
