How to Talk Jewish by Jackie Mason
Jackie Mason has built his Tony Award-winning career out of the culture and language of Jewish people, so who better to instruct the unindoctrinated in the joys of Yiddish? How to Talk Jewish, a guide to 100 Yiddish words, phrases, and expressions, includes pronunciations, definitions, and examples of usage, along with Jackie's incomparable wit. Is your blind date haimish? Uh oh. A zhlub, worse. A doctor? The naches are almost inexpressible! Jackie Mason brings all the vivacity, spunk, and chutzpah of Yiddish to the tongues of the less fortunate. Don't be a meshugenner, buy it already!
Jackie Mason, like the rest of his family's male relatives, studied to become a rabbi. He chose the stage over the film and is now a star on Broadway, network, and cable television, winning honors wherever he goes. He has appeared in films such as The World According to Me and Jackie Mason Brand New, and is the author of Jackie Oy!, his autobiography.
