===Languages=== Most Hasidim speak the language of their countries of residence but use [[Galician Yiddish]] among themselves to remain distinct and preserve tradition. Thus, children are still learning Yiddish today, and the language, despite predictions to the contrary, has not died. Yiddish newspapers are still published, and Yiddish fiction is written, primarily aimed at women. Even media in Yiddish is produced both within the Hasidic community and outside it for both educational and entertainment purposes, such as [[Unorthodox (miniseries)|''Unorthodox'']] and ''[[Shtisel]]'' on [[Netflix]] as well as support from the Swedish government for Yiddish as one of the [[official minority languages of Sweden]]. Some Hasidic groups, such as Satmar and Toldot Aharon, actively oppose the everyday use of Hebrew, which they consider a holy tongue. The use of Hebrew for anything other than prayer and study is, according to them, profane, and so, Yiddish is the vernacular and common tongue for most Hasidim around the world.{{Citation needed|date=December 2024}}
