Imma Jew

My first lesson in being a Jew. From an Indian 26 year old man in a strange house in Madison Wisconsin. His name, Mohamed.

shabbat- free dinner on Fridays, These happen at the jewish palaces called Halliel
Oy Vey- this means, "woooah",
Schiska- Seinfeid says its a Jewish temptress. She tempts non jews or Jews on the fence. It's a negative phrase, like, "Man, that girls a schiska."
Schmutz- weird crappy thing you can't get off your jacket. "You got some schmutz there, you better wipe if off before you go inside for Shabbat."
Bat mitzba- When a jew girl becomes a jew lady.
Challah- gooooood jewish bread
hannakah- opposite of Christmas
yarmulke- jew hat



One step closer to understanding my roots.
