2. I say sheets or linen. When I wash the linen, I am referring to anything that can be bought in Bed, Bath, and Beyond.
3. I dont sleep with a duvet cover or a top sheet. I also dont call my blanket a quilt. I call it a bed spread, comforter, or just say blanket.
4. I have a dog and many frum people in my community have dogs. I also have pocket pets, and if DH wasn't allergic, we'd have a cat also.
The things that you are mentioning have nothing to do with being frum. They are all geographical things. Like I say "pop" for soft drinks and I pronounce "Yeshiva" like "ye-SHI-va". Not "Ye-SHEEE-va". oh, and I say "kish-kee", not "kish-KA". |
Do you also say chall-ee instead of chall-ah? Idk why but that drives me crazy. I think it's a regional (maybe Boston?) thing too though.

All I can say is that I am so glad those are your questions about our world!

I've posted before that when I say "frum" that's what I mean. Others use the word differently to mean all of Orthodoxy.
