Their language, Old English, which derived from Ingvaeonic West Germanic dialects


Yiddish (ייִדיש yidish or אידיש idish, literally "Jewish") is a High German language

Just LIke the Greek and Hebrew (Jewish) alphabets, both may have a common distant Yiayia (in the Levant area) but Yiddish is definitely not a dalect of what you might term Anglo Saxon since it did not originiate in the Low German Areas the Angles and Saxons are said to have come from and originated long after (according to some theories) Anglo Saxon had diverged into Old English. though the latest evidence tends to suggest a Germanic language was probably in use in Eastern Britain before the Romans Arrived, let alone before the perecived Anglo Saxon invasion , and which for eaxmple could account for the Scottish Language (NOT GAELIC) which is a Germanic Language related to but not English, prevelent in the Southern parts of Scotland.

Anywhere here is another Iconic British Yiayia
