Abstract:
ABSTRACT : Yiddish constitutes an original example among European languages. A continuous grammatical reflection was developed from the Renaissance up to the present day. The grammarians were confronted with an essential theoretical question : Yiddish being a fusion language, which model could be used to describe it ? Until the XTXth Century, the notion of mixed or hybrid language dominates. Since the begining of the XXth century, the first general grammars have been developed, under the influence of comparative philology and dialectology, particularly in Poland, Russia and the USA. Yiddish, both an Indo-european and Semitic language, poses specific problem for the sciences of language.
