Yiddish and Hebrew are often thought to be closely related languages because of their shared script, and because they are both connected with the Jewish people. But the truth is that Yiddish and Hebrew and basically unrelated to each other. Hebrew is a Semitic language, most closely related with Arabic, while Yiddish is a Germanic language most closely related to German.
