The Oxford School of Rare Jewish Languages

From Judeo-Greek to Karaim, Oxford courses on 12 rare Jewish languages aim to keep heritages alive (Michelle Krasovitski, JTA).
The Oxford School of Rare Jewish Languages in the UK has launched its inaugural semester of courses in 12 Jewish languages, belonging to the Aramaic, Arabic and Turkic language families. They range in number of speakers, from millions to none.

The courses, which began this week, run for an hour a week online and are free for all students.
