Summary

A one-minute camera-track file from the session with Józef Hen in Warsaw, dated 12 June 2017, and one of seven consecutive files. It is mostly Russian, and a few lines show a conversation about proverbs; the transcript is too thin to say more.

Stretches

00:00–01:02

Short stretch mostly in Russian that appears to deal with proverbs and sayings. A remark about a surname is mixed in, and a Yiddish-sounding word for 'proverbs' is repeated by the informant and two other voices. One speaker says he learned a lot from someone and thanks him. Very little is intelligible, so the exchange is only partly clear.

Notes on the transcript

The recognizer classes this file as non-Yiddish (Russian). The Yiddish lines are largely noise, and the Russian lines are fragmentary. The file starts mid-conversation.
