your four questions are out of order!

Dan,
Very perceptive! There are different customs regarding the order of the four questions. This article reflects Chabad custom. The placement of the "dipping" question first -- although it isn't a Biblically mandated practice -- demonstrates the premium we place on perpetuating Jewish traditions.

I love that you've shared the 4 Questions in other languages ... it's important that everyone know the questions (and of course the answer) in more than just English & Hebrew.
Love to see/hear it in even more.
A Zissen Pesach to all.

The English version is in the wrong order

I have been searching the 'net for the four questions, in Yiddish. Of course it is all over the internet, but in the Hebrew alphabet, which didn't help me. I wanted the ma nishtana too, but that was easy to find. But you have given me just what I needed, all four questions in English, Hebrew and Yiddish.
...When we were young, my Zayde had me memorize the ma nishtana and my younger sister, the feer kashas. Memory being what it is, as adults I have been able only to recite Question #1 in Hebrew and my sister, Question #1 in Yiddish. One of the actual children reads the English.
Thanks to this wonderful website, this year we will have all 4 questions in all 3 languages.
