Jews were the first people to be called a “diaspora”

Posted on August 13, 2020August 14, 2020 by חבֿרטע רבֿקה

The word “diaspora” was originally coined for the scattering of Jews from Eretz Yisroel, and later extended to any other group of people living away from some point of origin. Now we have a strong tendency for certain leftists to act like this original diaspora was a myth or a lie.

Totally-Not-Antisemitic Pseudolinguistics, Part 1: Modern Hebrew

Posted on June 26, 2020August 14, 2020 by חבֿרטע רבֿקה

It is a view commonly held among amateur linguists, among whom I count myself, that Modern Hebrew is a constructed language “invented” by Eliezer Ben-Yehuda.
