Yiddish uses Hebrew while English uses Latin. Because the two do not share an alphabet, translated output cannot be sounded out from the original spelling — copy the result directly rather than trying to transcribe it. Yiddish reads right-to-left while English reads left-to-right, so the direction of the text flips during translation.
Both Yiddish and English belong to the Indo-European language family. Related languages tend to share vocabulary roots and comparable sentence structure, which generally makes machine translation between them more reliable — though false friends, words that look alike but mean different things, are also more common between relatives.
Yiddish: Approximately 600,000-1.5 million speakers worldwide, primarily in Orthodox Jewish communities in Israel, US, and elsewhere. English: Approximately 1.5 billion people speak English to varying degrees of proficiency, with around 360 million native speakers.
