English por favor?
I don’t even understand what it is you’re asking for…
The Wolf
He mentioned something about google Yiddish to English translate in another thread (a book for a yid). I don’t think he’s actually using it, but he’s definitely having fun… Just hope he’s not ZK.
From another post by this person I saw that he is using Yiddish Translate from Google, so I don’t think English is something he can write on his own.
I think he’s asking for something like Cliff Notes on the book The Gordian Knot by Yair Weinstock.
I don’t believe such a thing exists, but if you, by chance, happen to read Hebrew and just can’t manage the English version, the book is titled
??? ?????
??? ?. ????
out of curiosity..how come the English book is from Yair Weinstok and Hebrew is from ?. ???? This guy seems tohave more aliases than joseph
Yair Weinstock is the name he writes under for English books and ?. ???? is the one he writes under for Hebrew books.
You only know how to speak Yiddish !!! Sick what were your parents thinking when they raised u?
Hello aHeiligeYid,
I checked on spark notes’ and Cliffs Notes’ websites and could not find a summary at either site for that book. I hope you will be able to come across something helpful somewhere though!
M2, I honestly don’t know what you need to say that for and I don’t think it’s appropriate, not only on this thread, but in the CR overall. Is it any of your business?
Oh, I see — I am sorry to say that I do not have them. I hope you are able to round some up though 🙂
There is a summary at the Amazon website (the summary is free, they will gladly sell you the book). It might be harder to find the Hebrew original in the USA.
Cliff notes or Spark notes only exist for “classics” that have been adopted as required reading in a large number of schools, not new popular literature. If the book is widely read in a generation of so, you’ll find published summaries. The only secondary sources for current popular novels are book reviews.
If you combine the title, the author’s names (he uses a pseudonym), and the words “book review” you’ll find reviews about the book.
If you check the Library of Congress catalogs (catalog.loc.gov), and look under “authorities” you’ll find records for most of his works and “name authority” records explaining his use of various pseduonyms for this English, Hebrew and Yiddish works.
You know, aHeiligeYid, I should have asked that the subtitle read “loves cats and dogs” … I am as over the moon about the dogs as I am the cats, and I look forward to the day that I can live somewhere where I may have both 🙂 I hope that akuperma’s lead helps you find what you’re looking for!
