chut (as in cheder, NOT chulent) is not yiddish. fudim/fudem/fodim is. (depending on pronouncation).

Do keel (cool) and mol (mall) exist in Yiddish?


keel קיל for cool is yiddish. mol (for mall) is not

though 'times' as in 'how many times', is mool/ mohl depending on pronouncation.

How do you use keel? like cool, or for temperature?

Found this thread in the archives and thought I would bump it.
Seems like it was okay in 2012.
I don't recognize most posters. Maybe they left after the tech kinus in 2012.
(according to the date this is when it stops.)

Some of the Grammar is hilarious.

This should be a fun thread. I think even among yiddish speakers there is a massive difference in the words we use in yiddish, and how we say things, depending on where we come from. Thanks 'safe at last'!
