What Are We Up To? Week of 12/20/20

  • We’ve finished Anatolia/Syria/Balkans; Persia/Bukhara/Dagestan; and Yemen
  • We’re currently working on Kurdistan/Iraq (126/194) and Morocco (1/300)
  • We’re revising our Hebrew key and transliterations overall, switching from ey and ay to ei and ai
  • We’re revising our Hebrew transliterations vis-a-vis Persian and Bukharian communities
  • After we finish Idelsohn’s thesaurus, we plan to move on to transliterating, transcribing, and cataloguing files from piyut.co.il so that non-Hebrew speakers and readers can find music
  • Elsewhere, we have been cataloguing Sefaradi and Mizrahi academic writing, recipes, and oral histories
