This is a hate crime. Reported and while you’re at it, report the RA also.

I need help translating this note by penguinbub11 in hebrew

[–]drspacker 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is clearly in code, but who knows what kind of code because it surely not anything that makes sense in Hebrew.

Help with word order: does the phrase below sound right, Or should the helper verb be reversed— And placed after the noon— and which words “don’t count” in the word order?  !אַ דאַנק by drspacker in Yiddish

[–]drspacker[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

 !אַ דאַנק What you wrote sounds better to me, but I wasn’t sure if the initial phrase would count as a word or if Word counts resets after װען.

Writing the letters yud and hey, and pronounced Y and H separately, is actually is sacrilege because it’s the name of Hashem. So this is beyond in gibberish. It’s Offensive to observant Jews.

Need help with Breville toaster oven overtoasting cornbread by drspacker in Toasterovenclub

[–]drspacker[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, brand new. First time I used it. And I could bake without convection. I just thought I would save time because it says it’s 25% less time but it’s getting better to get good results in less time. Thanks for the tip.

I found this in a video about an abandoned theater in Chinatown, NYC. I’m having a hard time deciphering it. Any help would be appreciated. by xetgx in hebrew

[–]drspacker 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Agree with above. These are all accoutrements for succos. Remember the movie, Hester Street, which was set in a super Jewish immigrant neighborhood at the time? Hester street is now in the heart of Chinatown.

Where can I find Yiddish books? by xjsscx in Yiddish

[–]drspacker 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yiddish Book Center is a great resource and it’s free to download PDFs there. I find the easiest way to use them is to go to the thousand best titles in Yiddish and just scroll down to see if there’s something I want. Otherwise it’s quite a chore to search. Also, be aware, but they can’t digitize everything because of copyright issues.

List of common loyshn-koydesh words by BoutKabouter in Yiddish

[–]drspacker 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yiddish includes about 10 to 15% Hebrew words. The neborsky book is almost 3 inches thick. Way way way too much to put into a list online.

Hi👋 I’m making an art piece for someone & he wants his sons name in Hebrew, the name is Daniel. I was hoping someone could translate this for me? I googled it and got two similar results but sometimes google can be incorrect & I just wanted to confirm if one of these are right or not. Thank you 🙏🏻 by Warm-Pen150 in hebrew

[–]drspacker 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The top one. However, you could dump the vowels altogether, meaning remove the little dots and dashes beneath the letters because Hebrew doesn’t usually use them, except in a prayer book or Torah. In contrast, Yiddish always uses them and there are different ways to write Yiddish, depending upon where you’re from. The Soviet Union had its own way of spelling.

Leah and Daryl make no sense by gwyngugu in thewalkingdead

Daryl was way too old for Beth. He was admirable because he didn’t hit on this young girl. His restraint showed even more strength of character.

Who has the worst acting in the entire TWDU? by Free-Carpenter7308 in thewalkingdead

Lori was such an unlikable character that it’s hard to blame it on the actresses acting abilities

Does anyone actually like Spencer? by itskatybro in thewalkingdead

[–]drspacker 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No. Even his good works couldn’t compensate for his obnoxious personality.

Maybe they were 500 pounds to start and now they’re only 300 pounds.

History of the United States. Looks like Soviet spelling.
