Dear readers,

We’re extremely pleased to announce that the Jewish-language columnist Philologos has joined Mosaic. His columns, which delve into the many mysteries of Hebrew, Yiddish, and English—and occasionally Arabic, Circassian, Aramaic, and the various European tongues—have delighted, educated, and occasionally provoked readers at his previous home, the Jewish Daily Forward, for over two decades. We feel confident you will find them a welcome addition to Mosaic.

Starting this month, Philologos’ columns will appear biweekly, at the middle and end of each month. Questions or comments for his consideration should be directed to philologos@mosaicmagazine.com. 

With many thanks and all good wishes, 

The Editors
Mosaic
