Apart from Hebrew, which language did Amichai also write in?

  • Yiddish

  • German

  • Italian

  • English

Answer

In addition to Hebrew, Amichai also wrote in Yiddish. He was born in Germany to a Yiddish-speaking family, and his early poems were written in that language. He later began to write in Hebrew, but he continued to use Yiddish in his later years. His Yiddish poems are often more personal and intimate than his Hebrew poems, and they deal with themes such as love, loss, and death.
