In lieu of our regulat Shabbat morning service, we will be coming (virtually) to Toronto to hear our own Martin Di Maggio speak at Oraynu Congregation for Humanistic Judaism.
Saturday, August, 3, 2024 – 10 am Eastern time
JEWISH LANGUAGES ACROSS THE WORLD with Martin Di Maggio, Ph.D.
Did you know that there are numerous Jewish languages and not just Hebrew and Yiddish?
Join us as Martin Di Maggio (zooming in from London, England) teaches us about Jewish languages across the world. Dr. Di Maggio is both an endangered-language linguist and a leader within Humanistic Judaism. His presentation will explore different Jewish languages, where they are spoken, and some unique features of each. Musical samples from different Jewish languages will also be included.
