The book claims that Yiddish was created when Judaized Sorbs first
relexified their language to High German between the 9th-12th
centuries; by the 15th century, the descendants of the Judaized
Khazars also relexified their Kiev-Polessian (northern Ukrainian
and southern Belarusian) speech to Yiddish and German, Yiddish thus
uses a mixed West-East Slavic grammar and suggests that converted
Khazars were a major component in the Ashkenazic ethnogenesis.
