“assuming “a few” is 3 years thats over 150 sheilahs assuming once a week?”
I didn’t say I remember every sheilah, and I didn’t say that I was going to write all those that I remember.
“I think its someone who is still new. Which is of course a great to recognize lack of knoledge and ask when appropriate even if it is daily!”
No, the new people don’t know enough to know what to ask. As one or more of the posters already wrote (don’t remember who), sometimes, the people who know more have more questions.
I think that at least one of my friends recently commented that they were impressed that I even realized that something was a sheilah, since they wouldn’t have even known enough to know that.
However, you may have hit the nail on the head with this comment: “Which is of course a great to recognize lack of knoledge and ask when appropriate even if it is daily!” If people aren’t asking at least weekly, it may be because they don’t want to acknowledge their lack of knowledge.
The fact is that many halachic issues come up every day, so unless one is very familiar with halacha, they will have shailahs every day or nearly every day.
And from what I’ve seen, most people aren’t that familiar with halacha (to know all the halachos that come up daily). The women certainly aren’t (which is who I mainly talk to), but many of the men I know seem not to be either.
Most women that I know have not even learned all of the halachos in the Mishna Berura (including myself), and there are halachos there that come up every day or every week.
Hilchos Brachos come up every day, and most people that I know have not learned hilchos brachos. Hilchos Shabbos come up every week, and most people I know have not learned all of the halachos of Shabbos that come up on a regular basis.
Also, even if someone has learned hilchos Shabbos thoroughly, there are still many sheilahs that can come up. I have learned Hilchos Borer, but knowing hilchos borer does not mean that you will necessarily know if a particular situation is borer or not, since the halachos themselves are a bit vague (since the precise definition of borer is not clear).
I find that almost every Shabbos, a halachic sheilah comes up that no one is sure of the answer to (including the avreichim and Yeshiva Bochurim present).
