I am Christian but raised in an area that is about 1/3 Jewish. It is very common t hear Yiddish spoken. Wonderful language — so expressive.
Ir’s really something combined with a Spanish accent. We had a client who was originally from Peru- a really delightful man, but spoke with such a heavy accent, it was a challenge sometimes, to understand him. When we’d be working out the design & prices for his fixtures, Roberto would be smiling & nodding and we would be smiling & nodding. About half the time, we’d have NO idea what, exactly, he said, but it rarely took more than 2 samples, if that, to get the fixture he wanted.
He was our favorite client & one of our best. We adored him.
