I am quite ignorant about this, but was wondering when someone says Yiddish is that the same then as Hebrew or no?

Happy to have the question! Yiddish and Hebrew are different languages, but use the same aleph-bet. Yiddish is a European/Germanic language, though it has many Hebrew words. (Torah is in ancient Hebrew.) Yiddish is sometimes also just called "Jewish."
