RE: yinglish

[Joan D. Levin <jdlevin...>]

Yes, Grine Kuzine also has that  "milinery storkeh" and like Ikh bin a
border by mein weib has "job" rendered as "dhzab" -- and then Border
also has "rum" etc. etc.  And then in "Mein Tayer Jeckele, shickt mir a
"chekele!"  And plenty more in  Paul Zim's CD o  A Yiddish Delight in
the newer songs "Chikn" and "Shabbos bei der tisch"   So mamy English
words "Yiddishized" here.    My question  is to what extent do these
words these become part of the language entire, treated just as
borrowings from other languages come to us in the Yiddish we learn?
