Feif Un, a slight quibble. the Ibn Ezra adds Aramiac and Arabic as Leshonos Hakodesh due to their Semitic origins. The Maharal says Aramaic is holier than Hebrew. But German isn’t holy, even if written in Hebrew letters. the mishna brurah says one can daven in any language if he understands that language, but it’s better to Davenb in Loshon Hakodesh. Not a word about Yiddish, except (iirc) to call it lashon ashkenaz!
