Likkutei Sichos Dictionary

This is a placement site for Yiddish words used in Likkutei Sichos.

There already exists a handy reference work by Zalman Goldstein containing virtually every Yiddish word found among the may volumes of Likutei Sichos. These entries have been translated into Hebrew and English. Arranged in columns, alphabetically by the Yiddish words. Only the translations that fit the text are included. There are a series of tables in the appendix to enable the reader to decipher abbreviations and track the roots and sources of the words. The tables also highlight any words composed of both Yiddish and Hebrew along with their various suffixes.

 

As an aide to users this is a list of words and translations that have been added by our contributors.
