Sanaani Hebrew language

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Sana'ani Hebrew language is the variety of Yemenite Hebrew formerly spoken liturgically by the Jewish community in and around Sana'a, Yemen. Large numbers of Yemenite Jews brought the language with them when they fled to the State of Israel following a number of anti-Israel riots which culminated in violence against the Jews.
