“Do, en Ĥazario nur la ĥano kaj parto de la nobelaro estis judoj kaj judismanoj; estas nekredeble ke de ili devenas ĉiuj aŝkenazoj.”

“Pleje longe kaj kontentige li laboris ĉe juda familio. Aŝkenazoj. Antikvaĵistoj.”

His longest and most satisfying job was with a Jewish family. Ashkenazim. Antiquaries.
