A Taste of Judeo-Baghdadi Arabic: Proverbs, Folklore, Expressions

Hosted By: My Jewish Learning

Dr. Assaf Bar Moshe joins My Jewish Learning to explore Judeo-Baghdadi Arabic, the language spoken by Iraq’s millennia-old Jewish community. What do common expressions tell us about the daily lives of Jews living in Baghdad? What can folklore and word choice tell us about community values, Jewish Baghdadi history and life, and relationships with non-Jewish neighbors? Find out with us.

You can view a recording of Dr. Bar Moshe’s last class with My Jewish Learning here. Thursday’s session will contain exciting new information about Baghdadi Jewish sayings and daily life.
