Annie Kaufman on translating Avreml Broide

Proste Yiddish - Simple Yiddish

Episode 5 // Season 6

אַן אינטערװיו מיט אַניע קױפֿמענטשען

I had a great time talking to Annie Kaufman all about her new translation of Ben Gold’s book Avreml Broide. Annie speaks clearly and slowly so although this is an interview episode it’s not as hard as some of them - give it a go and remember you can slow it down if needed.
