Yiddish words - a reply
2007-12-08 18:53:00 Gzuckier posted a comment on Digg to my Top 10 Words that Sound Yiddish (But Aren't) with a link to a great article.Some poor geezer got his knickers in a twist over the use of the word Kaffufle in an article, which led to an anti-Israel/ antisemitic diatribe.What does "Israelization of American culture" mean? Since when do they speak Yiddish in Israel? (Of course 'Israelization' is not in the dictionary, but is synonymous with Judeification. Classic antisemitism!)Anyway, the last laugh was left for the editor (see below).Thank you for that wonderful comment. Here is the article from Concord Monitor A language kafufflePeter Davis, LaconiaLetter to the editor For the MonitorNovember 14. 2007 12:45AM What is a "kafuffle"? It's not in the dictionary. Is it just another proofreading error? Or is it a further example of your acquiescence to the Israelization of American culture by attempting to pass obscure Yiddish words into the mainstream of the American language?It's bad enough ...

Want To Speak A Little Yiddish?
2007-09-24 02:03:00 The great thing about language is that it is organic, fluid, and ever evolving and there is no one language that is not touched by another language. The other great thing is you can't learn a new language without learning about the culture of the people who speak it and learning equates to understanding and appreciation. Think about it. Anyway, in the interest of spelling the Yiddish saying Oy Veh (Oi, Vai! - Dear me! Expression of dismay or hurt) I perused the internet and came upon this wonderful Yiddish Dictionary. I share it here for those of you who would like to learn an expression to toss around here and there. Just click the title above to go directly to the websiteSuggestions and additions to Yiddish dictionary can be sent to the authorMichael D. Feinwho can be contacted by e-mail. e-mail goes to: yiddishkeit@pass.tobe sure to put "Yiddishkeit" in the subject line.

The Yiddish Policeman's Union by Michael Chabon
2007-08-07 19:25:00 I finished The Yiddish Policemen's Union: A Novel last night. I loved this book. I really love Chabon's descriptions of the characters and settings. Here is an example: Rabbi Heskel Shpilman is a deformed mountain, a giant ruined dessert, a cartoon house with the windows shut and the sink left running. A little kid lumped him together, a mob of kids, blind orphans who never laid eyes on a man.

Cherries in Yiddish and Other Languages
2007-07-01 06:20:00 Left to right Montrmorency Cherries (pie cherries), Bing cherries, Ranier Cherries, and Morello cherries I picked up two kinds of sweet cherries and two kinds of sour cherries at the market on Friday. Since this post is in English, I could have written that I got four kinds of cherries, but in Yiddish, sweet cherries (karshn ?????? ) and sour cherries (vaynshl ?????? ) have different names and are considered two entirely different ingredients. Botanically, they are two different species. Sweet cherries are prunus avium and sour cherries are prunus cerasus. It is nice and cool now, and I will get around to baking something, but so far, I am just nibbling them on their own. Montrmorency Cherries are face-scrunchingly sour, but kapow, they come with an amazingly bright, lollypop-cherry finish that makes you want the next one even more. Many cherry websites will tell you that sour cherries need to be cooked, and are too sour to eat out of hand, but you may find you get used to t...
