Camera-track recording made in Warsaw on 18 June 2018, one of three consecutive files of a long session. Kerler talks in Yiddish with a Polish-speaking woman who translated Yiddish material into Polish and who sang in a Jewish choir. The conversation covers her translation work, the state of Yiddish in Poland, the choir, a book by Yosl Birshtein that Kerler recommends, and her school experience after returning to Poland in 1946.
The woman discusses her translation work for the Polish public. She says the translations were not published in Yiddish, and that they are now available on discs and the internet. She explains why the work matters for Poland, and Kerler assures her it is important and praises her Yiddish.
She says she worked with Ringelblum for about ten to twelve years. They discuss younger Yiddish speakers in Poland, whom Kerler taught, and the difference between their Yiddish and hers. Kerler remarks on natural, homely speech as against an official register.
She talks about the Jewish choir, which sang in Yiddish, Hebrew and Ladino. She explains that in her youth people sang popular Yiddish songs and that only a few choir members were truly Jewish. Kerler mentions a Polish song, and she offers to send recordings and asks where Kerler lives.
Kerler offers to send her books, and she says she is looking for an interesting book to translate into Polish. They discuss Mendele (?) and a book she read in France. Kerler recommends Yosl Birshtein, from Biala Podlaska, and his story collection, whose first story is about a prince's coat. They talk about how to get it online and exchange addresses.
Largely unclear exchange, with a few remarks about writing, the choir name (apparently Tslil (?)) and the lack of Yiddish writers. Kerler says he did not give her some books because she is interested in the war. She says she wrote in Polish, and a Russian phrase is heard.
Kerler asks about her return to Poland in 1946. She recalls that she was about eight when she began school and went to a Polish school in Gora (?), where she knew no Polish. She asked her father to send her to a normal school, and her first day at school went badly. She was alone, and the teacher sent her away, so she ran out crying. Some Polish phrases appear.
