Yep- Yiddish for Troubles and Aggravation
12:50 pm

I just have the 6 though
12:51 pm

add an o in the middle - both words have no meaning

It might be a relative- does the 7 start like the 6?
12:51 pm

they do, but in Yiddish.
12:52 pm

Yep, both included. cig, they do have meaning, but incorporated into English like Yenta.

I suppose Enable is compensating for allowing racial slurs?
12:53 pm
clg47

I checked another alternative spelling. Most common usage replaces o's with u
12:53 pm

so the meaning gave me great ts.

It is very related to German and Hebrew. A mishmash, which s also a Yiddish word.
12:58 pm
Kaplan the Magne

Penquis, is she a troll?

I grew up in NY, so had a smattering of NY Yiddish (i.e. words that are in common parlance in NY). When I started learning German in school, I was highly amused to discover that Schmuck means jewellry in German.

There are people who trigger me, but I don't attack them. Sometimes I am talkative, sometimes not

Any words I learned while working came from the Sephardic background. So Spanish, Greek mixed with Hebrew.

hello friends. Could I have a nudge for the lone o, please? Just canNOT see it
12:59 pm

schmuck means the same thing as putz
1:00 pm

wow -- didn't know mishmash was yiddish -- have heard it all my life and I had never met a Jewish person until we moved to Montreal when I was in my late 20's
1:00 pm
Kaplan the Magne

Ladino. I have strong Sephardic roots.
1:00 pm
mattygroves

I know. But in German it just means...jewellry. That tickled me.

i suspect you are just being kind, but thank you
1:02 pm
Kaplan the Magne

That's why you weren't aware of "sewing down" as a slur---I had to realize it was lack of familiarity. I have a friend from OK who had never met a Jewish person before me either.
1:02 pm
penquis

nope....it's true....it's kind of squirrelly... ;o)
1:03 pm

I think the thing to do is to build relationships. Sometimes people don't know what words mean to others.

cybernan are you familiar with Miramichi?
1:04 pm
cybernan

no - isn't it a region somewhere in PQ?
1:05 pm
Kaplan the Magne

Yeah, it looks like fairyland from the photos. I know someone there. It's in the PEI cluster. Almost no covid.
1:06 pm
cybernan

so it's on PEI then?
1:07 pm
Kaplan the Magne

No, but near I think
1:08 pm
Kaplan the Magne

The climate is apparently the same as Boston, but it's much prettier.
1:08 pm
clg47

ok I was in Spain and was asked a question. I thought the woman was asking me if I wanted a man. I declined and found a different place to stay the next day. Years later at work the oldest person with the spanish/greek background asked me if I had hunger. Boy those word are close. I wish I could I am so sorry to the darling little spanish lady that rented me a room.
1:08 pm
cybernan

Just looked it up -- it's in NB -- just across the bay from PEI
1:09 pm
Kaplan the Magne

Oh. I am teaching myself Spanish and am at a more advanced level than I had been. I use several apps and drill myself on different vocabulary words every night. Estoy agobiada.
1:09 pm
cybernan

but yes -- the maritime provinces have been limiting travel since March and have considerably fewer cases as a result. One must also keep in mind that the population is much smaller also. For example the population of PEI is about the same as the town I live in (150,000)
1:10 pm
Kaplan the Magne

I don't think I cam use my Spanish in Canada. Hambriento is hungry. Hombre is man. Hombro is shoulder.

NS is a beautiful province -- we visited for the first time in fall of 1919 -- loved it in spite of the hurricane :)
1:11 pm

Me too, and Montreal. I've never been there and it's in driving distance. Then I remember--pandemic.

hopefully once vaccines are widely distributed, our borders will be open again. That is assuming, of course, that 75% of the population is vaccinated.

Trump is very much to blame for the current pandemic situation, but so are the people who won't wear masks, who are going home or getting together with others this week because it is Thanksgiving -- all are contrubting to the spread. And we are too, tor not telling these people to their face s to get with the program .
1:47 pm
hokie carla

oh well, finished with the help of the list and a wordfinder. you all enjoy your doom and gloom fest.

i'm staying home alone nan.. we're spiking here in California..
1:49 pm

so are we, ru -- not as badly as the states or even other provinces but the numbers are going up. We celebrated our thanksgiving with our family on zoom -- everyone in their own homes.
1:49 pm

my neighbors however are continuing to have lots of people over and backyard parties.

1:57 pm
cybernan

It's easy to feel gloomy when the skies are grey and you haven't visited face to face with any of your friends for a month and the highlights of your week are facetime with the kids. If it makes you feel better about yourself, just think of those who have no home, no food, no heat and nowhere to go.

Thing is, people don't need to be all alone. There are distanced ways to get together. Ru and Origami had one recently.
2:19 pm
MollyL

And families can get together for the holidays. Just in a responsible way.
2:20 pm
cybernan

molly - we are locked down by provincial order. No visiting even with distancing unless it is outdoors - and then only in passing. Also it is only about 37F out right now.
2:21 pm
clg47

Yes cybernan. I have a roof, a garden, heat and medical. Of course you also have medical thanks to Tommy Douglas. I walk with friends. 3 friends have had their husbands die recently so once in a while we chat about the tidal ebb & flows of emotions. I had friends over after the election and we sat out side bundled up and drank champagne.
2:21 pm
MollyL

Really Nan? From what you have said, I thought Canda was doing stellar with COVID and it was only the evil US that still had bad numbers.
2:23 pm
cybernan

we are molly - and that is the reason why -- our governments have kept control. But after the curve flattened during the summer months, things started to open up and now the numbers are rising, so we have another shut down.
2:24 pm
clg47

MollyL you need some news options. New Zealand and Australia are doing stellar. Africa is doing better than the US. Cybernan are you in balmy BC at 37F?
2:25 pm
cybernan

we have a mild micro-climate here, but it is still chilly. The surrounding mounaings are covered in snow, so when the wind blows, it gets cold.
2:26 pm
MollyL

News options? I was going on what Nan has said here, not the news.
2:27 pm
clg47

I live on an island in the Puget Sound area. I see the snow in the mountains and the wind can blow. It's great.
2:31 pm
cybernan

there is bad and there is terrible, molly. Our province has a population of about 5 million. During the summer we were averaging about 30 new cases per day, over the last month that has risen to 500 new cases perday so the provincial health authority decided it was time to knock that down again.
2:34 pm
rururocks

maybe you guys should try golfing nan.. it seems to be working for Trump :D
2:34 pm
cybernan

In the southern interior, where I live, we were getting now new cases in the summer with no one hospitalized, now we have around 25 new cases daily and there are 34 people in hospital -- those stats cover a population of 750,000
2:34 pm

*no new cases during the summer

Hey, has anyone in the US decided to follow the suggestion of having Thanksgiving in July (or some other time when there is maybe a bit more to celebrate, e.g. a vaccine)?
5:37 pm
Book Doctor Gwen

some kind of party when this pandemic is over -- yes -- probably not going to call it thanksgiving though
5:38 pm
Gillie

I think the idea was to avoid having a big celebration now that could make things worse.
5:39 pm
Gillie

I know many people can't imagine skipping Thanksgiving, but maybe postponing is a bit more palatable.
5:40 pm
Book Doctor Gwen

getting close to other people and eating with them is about the best way to spread this bug
5:40 pm

Yes, unfortunately
5:42 pm
Book Doctor Gwen

further, we still don't have a good, accurate test for this bug
5:43 pm
Gillie

We've already had our Thanksgiving, but things are now getting steadily worse in Alberta, and the provincial government is obviously reluctant to try another big lock-down, even though we're getting close to filling the space that was allocated for COVID in the hospitals.
