The author first discusses the fundamental relationship, in Hebrew
writing systems, between script and sound, in particular the
investigation of this relationship in texts of the past. In the
first major section, an exhaustive description of three texts from
around 1600 serves as a fixation point for a presentation, based on
some 70 texts, of the development of the writing and sound systems
from the oldest texts to the demise of written West Yiddish in
Germany around 1800. Main subject of the second major section is
the gradual distancing of the German component of West Yiddish from
all varieties of German. A comparison of the phonetic system with
the other linguistic levels shows that West Yiddish achieved its
independence from German most readily at the semantic level, more
slowly in phonology. In the final chapter the author tries to
organize all observed graphic and phonic speech changes according
to a few pragmatically intelligible categories.
