Summary
A short camera-track file (about one minute) from a Warsaw session of 16 June 2018, with no name in the index. A woman answers Kerler's questions about her non-religious upbringing and what she remembers of Jewish holidays; she speaks Polish and Yiddish. The file begins and ends mid-conversation.
Stretches
00:00–01:05
The woman says in Polish that she comes from a non-religious home and has not often heard about the holidays; she was once phoned about approaching holidays. Her father is mentioned as a member of an association whose name is unclear. Kerler asks whether Jewish holidays were taught at school, and about Purim and Passover. She begins to answer and mentions Purim in her class, and the Yiddish is partly garbled.
The informant asks what the word (garbled) means, a holiday word; Kerler answers that it is a kind of fever — meaning of a word she heard in connection with a holiday (garbled, apparently a Hebrew-component word)
