Since this category currently contains both Hebrew and Yiddish words, I propose that its name be changed to reflect that fact.

I think that it is best to keep only Yiddish words here, removing Hebrew words which are used when speaking Yiddish.

Shouldn't the title depend on the purpose of the category? If it's for people who are trying to look up a Yiddish word or phrase (i.e., any word or phrase understood by a person who speaks only Yiddish), then the title is accurate, regardless of the origin of the word. Of what value is a list of Yiddish words and phrases that excludes words that come from or are used in other languages (e.g. Yiddish words used in English)?
