<p><div dir="ltr">So Yiddish is similar to Persian in comparison to Arabic? Arabic is semitic but Persian Indo-European, so they don't have to do anything with eachother as languages, but a lot of Arabic words are used in Persian and the alphabets are similar, but Persian added symbols for sounds which weren't used in Arabic.<div>
<br></div><div>Exactly the same with Yiddish and Hebrew? Hebrew is just as Arabic semitic and Yiddish is Indo-European, as it belongs to the Germanic branch of languages. Yiddish is written with the Hebrew alphabet, but some symbols are added for sounds which weren't present in Hebrew, while Yiddish has words from Hebrew.</div>

No, Yiddish is an Indo-European language, and considered as a Germanic<br clear="none">
language by most scholars (some considers it as Slavic, but most only<br clear="none">
