Hey there! I have a mainly scholarly knowledge of Yiddish and try to add the flavour of the dialects where I can to balance out the standardisation. I speak Varshever Yiddish specifically (Poylish shebePoylin!) but I feel all dialect speakers (i.e. 99% of Yiddish speakers) can appreciate that when we look up a word with vov-yud, it's frustrating that we don't know how to pronounce it. That and the many exceptions to regular rules like recent NHG and Slavic loans. Still getting to grips with how Wiktionary works, so appreciate all the help I can get!
