Translation.
I was referring to Yiddish whereas many members understand it. Many times certain words are understood better in Yiddish than in English.

I think a word here or there is fine, but if it's on the main forum the conversation should be in English. It's like having a full conversation with other people standing around feeling very left out. It's quite rude, in my opinion.

To clarify my point, I was actually asking about writing in Yiddish in the chassidishe velt. I figured I'll get my answer if I ask it in a more general way. But I see I opened a can of worms.
I'm assuming everyone in the chassidishe velt understands Yiddish. Would that be rude too if I post in Yiddish in the chassidishe velt?

I'd ask the question in that forum.
