A clip from the movie “Everytime We Say Goodbye.” Starring Tom Hanks and an all Israeli cast including legend Gila Almagor. Ladino is the language the Jews spoke before their expulsion from Spain in 1492.
Ladino is the Spanish language spoken in the late-15th century, and preserved by Jews with some influence of the countries they've been in (Turkey, Greece, etc.)
I am originally from Central America, I was able to understand the entire conversation in Ladino. In Central America our dialect never evolved, it sounds very close to Ladino or Spanish from the 16 century.
Soy de Monterrey Mexico, soy de ascendencia Sefardi y entiendo perfectamente el Ladino, no lo hablo muy bien pero me doy a entender, muchas personas del Noroeste de Mexico sobre todo de Nuevo Leon, descienden de Judios expulsados de España. EN TExas tambien hay muchas personas que descienden de esas familias que fundaron Nuevo Leon, Texas, Coahuila, Durango y Tamaulipas.
La gente "española" que colonizo el sur de Texas y el norte de Mexico eran de ascendencia sefardim. I am from the Rio Grande Valley, born in Monterrey Mexico. I also have Sephardic Jewish blood. This is why you can understand this Ladino, because TexMex is actually based in Ladino Spanish. I wish more people understood that in South Texas we don't speak "pocho" or "wrong" Spanish. We actually speak a mixture of Ladino and English.
En 1642 llego el Capitán de la Corona Español, Don Martín de Turrubiartes con su esposa y hijo, Mari Joanes Zepareiche, Juan, a lo que se llama Cerrritos SLP, México hoy. Llegaron hablando Ladino Español con las familias Sefardíes que los acompañaron. Hoy este idioma está casi desaparecido en ciertas partes del mundo. Esperemos que esto no sea así.
Not true they spoke ladino in spain well before the expulsion. It's actually why it was created. A language among the community that only members spoke. Exactly like yiddish in germany . Also created same way. My parents are from the Communitate de rit Spaniol Bucharest Sephardic Jews from Romania and we spoke ladino before coming into Romania from Spain. All the books that were preserved in my community were in ladino written in spain and some parts Constantinople. Today istanbul.
Cristina Marsillach habla un español fluido, de España algo viejo, aunque pronuncia la g como c. La otra mujer no lo habla como una nativa, puede ser como una italiana o una norteamericana o una alemana o una brasilera, un castellano en aprendizaje, entrecortado y duro.
Here is a longer RU-vid video of the first scene of "Every Time We Say Goodbye" (1986), the first time David (Tom Hanks) meets Sarah (Cristina Marsillach). ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-SjrcwXrVkcE.html
@@cacalover4253 The hard "d", the hard "g" and the sh /ʃ/ sound are also used in Portuguese. The Spanish /θ/ sound in oroza (=happy) should have been /z/ as in French, English and Ladino.
@@donc7349 Yeah. I may have misinterpreted the comment. At first i thought he was saying that it sounded "closer'" to Portuguese than to Spanish. But what he was actually saying is that Ladino has sounds which Spanish doesn't have anymore which make it sound a little more similar to Portuguese when compared to Modern Spanish. Still, it sounds nothing like Portuguese either way, lol. It still sounds exactly like Spanish specially the Latin American variant, so idk why you guys are doing the comparison to begin with. Also, the Ladino "d" isn't pronounced "hard" at all. The only big phonetical differences between Ladino and Modern Spanish are the palatal "J", "Ge", "Gi", which Modern Spanish aspirates now. And the "Sh" sound, which was present in Spanish until the late 1700s but ended up being aspirated too, lol.
@@cacalover4253 Ladino has hard and soft d. You are right, the Ladino in the movie sounds somewhat similar to Andalusian or American Spanish. You can clearly hear the hard d in the video with Esther on youtube: "Ladino- Esther Levi"
It is kinda. It's a mixture of Hebrew and Spanish. The language is called Ladino. Tipicly for spanish Jews. While Ashkenazi Jews are speaking Yiddish a mixture of German and Hebrew.
Not broken at all, perhaps archaic. Spanish changed much more than Ladino since 1492. Still, it is quite impressive how intelligible it is to the modern Spanish speaker.
