@Jnei -- Zaide gave me some when I was very young and he always conducted the Seder in it. I get an odd thrill out of knowing it's still alive.

@David_Cooper Yidische is far more common - but my bubbeh always used Eydish for the language and Yidische for the culture for some reason, so I do too!
I speak 5 of them..does that count?..English, Swedish, German, Norwegian and Danish..I'd love to add Italian and Latin..
