Colin Powell speaks more Yiddish than I do, my grandma was a German Jew, she spoke a dialect of German from Austria-Hungary and a little bit of Yiddish. Wish I had learned more of both. Instead I lived in El Paso for 10 years and learned a lot of Spanish. It helps that I learned it, because once in a while I get someone who speaks no English at work.

@@francisallen4882 You have a small but relevant linguistic confusion, what the Amish speak (as do the Mennonites) is not Old High German but Old Low German (Plattduytsch or Nederduytsch aka Dietsch or Diets) which was the root of all netherlandish dialects today and yes it is indeed related to the german lower rhine medieval dialects that mostly influenced yiddish

@MrLaizard now you confused "Platt"(-deutsch/deitsch) and "Plattdüütsch". The latter is the self-descriptory term for Old Low German (Niederdeutsch). In contrast the former can stand for any German dialect of any Old High or Low German origin. Niederdeutsch (Old Low German) is only spoken only in the northern parts of Germany north of the Benrath line. All German languages south of that line belong to the Old High German language (not to be confused with modern High German!). A large group of Mennonites emigrated from the Palatinate (Pfalz) to Pennsylvania and their language Pennsylvania Dutch (or Deitsch) is of old Western Middle German origin which is part of the Old High German languages and far from Old Low German or even the modern Dutch language! The origin of the Amish is even further south of the Palatinate in Elsaß (Alsace) and Switzerland, where Old Upper German languages were spoken, which are also counted to the Old High German languages. So @Francis Allen is 100% right when he calls *his* language Old High German!

I worked as a mechanic off and on through my college days and for some time after I graduated. The shop where I worked had changed hands and I knew it was time to go. My boss, who I loved like a second father, came to me and said "well, since you are going you had better show me some of the ins and outs of the systems you are working on." I thought this was strange. He knew so much more than I did but we sat and talked mechanics for a while. Then he said "I have trained seven mechanics. You are the last. Wherever you go from here make me proud." He is gone now but not a day goes by that I do not think of that man. I hope he would proud of what I have acomplished.

I always thought a schlepper had a somewhat negative connotation.

I think it’s both a verb and a noun. I heard the word schlep a lot. The word schlepper was rarely used, but when it was it wasn’t a flattering description. Maybe it’s an east coast, west coast thing?

Were I to die in a catastrophic event like global thermonuclear war along with everybody else., I'd have the consolation of knowing that I lived during the best period of human existence. I've outlived everyone I loved and who loved me. Given that there is nothing noble about our species its loss will go unnoticed and unlamented by any intelligent species if there is one that discovers our ecistence. BTW I have no religion, no belief in god or the devil, or heaven or hell and having had one near death experience about 30 years ago it taught me I'm not afraid of death.

Kali - African boy from Wa-hima tribe, Staś's servant who quickly becomes his friend. He faithfully serves his master and helps him to get going through the dangers of Africa. Kali became popular when a Polish colloquial saying about double standard was coined around the so-called Kali's morality: If somebody takes Kali's cow, it's a bad deed. If Kali takes somebody's cow, it's a good deed. n Desert and Wilderness (Polish: W pustyni i w puszczy) is a popular young adult novel by Polish author and Nobel Prize-winning novelist Henryk Sienkiewicz, written in 1911. It is the author's only novel written for children/teenagers. In Desert and Wilderness tells the story of two young friends, Staś Tarkowski (14 years old) and Nel Rawlison (8 years old), kidnapped by rebels during Mahdi's rebellion in Sudan. It was adapted for film twice, in 1973 and in 2001.

My time up north, where my family originated, bonding over Gilbert Gottfried and learning about Judaism from my Jewish friends in college, I began to use the term "schmuck" and "oy vey", while my Gentile working class Chicago family had already been using Yiddish slang my entire life to a mild degree. But it was when I looked at our immigration records from Lithuania that I realized my friends' calling me the "honorary Jew" may be a lot more than just "honorary"... considering all the places I believe we could have come from were 95% Jewish when we left in the late 1800s. Looking at pictures of my late 'Lithuanian' great-grandma, who I look very much like, we definitely were NOT tall blond Lithuanians. Much more Jewish looking!

The true tragedy in most peoples lives is that they are far better than they imagine themselves to be and, as a result, end up being much less than they might be.

Gimme a break. Powell is a bagman. He lies and picks up payments and runs errands for the deep state and always has. Look up his involvement in the My Lai Massacre. Colin Powell is one of the generals that is always ready to drive tanks over the citizens. Fuck him.

@@paulparoma Diminutive means small. A diminutive person is short and small. A diminutive word is a "cute" version of a word or name: for example, "duckling" is a diminutive of "duck" and Billy is a diminutive form of the name William.

@@listerchen778 it's not necessarily endearing or cute, . It's a grammatical form that some languages have to make something smaller. A very well known example is the Spanish suffix "'-ito", as in "perro" (dog)/"perrito" (little dog). In Yiddish the diminutive form is typically "-el", as in "hays" (house), "hayzl" (little house). It is often used as an edearing form but sometimes it can denote disdain or simply just that something is small.
