O Shlemiel
"Card games with Yiddish".
This game comes with a double deck of standard cards with several extras: In the lower left, a letter A-Z; upper right, a number 1-52; and in the center, a Yiddish word or phrase, with its English translation. There are also 2 jokers with no letter or number but including Yiddish phrases. The decks are designed to play any normal card games, but also the word games, math games, and combination games described in the 24-page rules booklet, which also has a brief history of Yiddish.
