There's a passage in this novel describing a predatory Jewish pawnbroker called Gedalye who the Ukrainian peasants hate and they curse him by saying:
“A shob na tebe Gedalye napav!..”
Any idea what it means? Thanks 🙏🏻

I've been learning how to read Yiddish for a couple of years and I would like to be able to write properly as well but I find it difficult. With reading I practice by going through a book, translating it, and looking up words I don't know in a dictionary. Any tips for how to develop a similar routine with writing?

I just read the two volumes that have been translated into English and I love them. The art, humor and characters are great. Is there any chance that Fantagraphics will translate any more volumes?
