'''Ballmer Ăn Yidiș''' ('' 'n Yidiș oy Balmur'' or '' 'm Balmuriș'') originates from the Eastern US city of Ballmer (from בּאַלא מאָר Bală Mur 'Big Village', Ḷbāḷdimōra in Palkhan; same location and same local pronunciation /boəlmər/ as our Baltimore). It's the most common Ăn Yidiș dialect in the Philadelphia area and in wider PA, though it is not a written language unlike Standard Ăn Yidiș, and speakers are bilingual in English and written Bohemian Hasidic Ăn Yidiș. (The Bohemian Hasidic dialect spoken in NYC Jewish enclaves is closer to the written standard grammar-wise.)

It's the most common Ăn Yidiș dialect in the Philadelphia area and in wider PA, it's highly innovative compared to other dialects of Ăn Yidiș.


Ballmer Ăn Yidiș sounds a bit like a Satmar Yiddish accent in Ăn Yidiș. Unlike Standard Ăn Yidiș it lacks "umlaut" of Proto-ĂnY *a before slender consonants, hence MIr ''baile'' > ''bală'' as opposed to Standard ĂnY ''belă''. It has lost gender and mutations, but h- is added to vowel initial plural nouns and adjectives.
