 Should be mutually intelligible with our Modern Hebrew speakers, though it may sound a bit flowery. In Cualand it's called "French Hebrew" (or עברית צרפתית ''ivrith tsårfåsith'' which may also refer to the traditional Tsarfati reading of Hebrew) and is sometimes made fun of.
-The standard variety today is an artificial compromise accent between Irta Yevani Hebrew and Tsarfati Hebrew, with an Ăn Yidiș-influenced accent and grammar; it does not merge patach and qamatz gadol unlike Irta Yevani Hebrew. Formal Hebrew is less of an Ăn Yidiș relex, and recent spoken Hebrew's more of an English relex and is becoming closer to [[Verse:Irta/Cualand#Cualand Hebrew|Cualand Hebrew]] or our Israeli Hebrew.
