Oy vey!

Great fun, my boy! πŸ˜„

Disappointing

Really a short list. Unclear where definitions are from, and not completely accurate. Great idea. Fell short of expectations.

Not all Jewish apps are created alike

Crashes when opening every time. Oye Vey!

Rigged to Demand More Money

App keeps asking if I want to purchase, wants to charge to American Express Card. App will not function until/unless I agree to additional charge and provide AmEx number.

Yiddish Slang Dictionary

I am reading that some Yiddish speakers are dissing the program.
But for me, whose Yiddish exposure ended with my grandma some 50 years ago, it has been great fun.

Very Disappointing

The app only features a few words, many of which the general public already knows. I can't believe I just paid a dollar to learn what a bagel is.

Yiddish

Good fun but could be more comprehensive

Fun but needs work

Lack of pronunciation is a major gap. Parts of speech is standard in a dictionary but missing here. Nice idea but needs work.

paltry

A half-assed app if there ever was one. The "dictionary" only has a handful of words, a pretty paltry offering indeed when you consider the richness and variation of Yiddish/Yiddish slang. Don't be a schlemiel like yours truly and fork over a buck for this app.

Disappointing

I wish this app had phonetic spelling or audio for each word. How can we learn the pronunciation otherwise?
