Charda”l is rashai Taivos for CHAReidi DAti Le’mi – meaning seriously religious nationalistic Israeli.
btw… To me, yeshivish means a big stress on frum APPEARANCES, i.e. the white shirt, black pants, black hat and (usually) tzitzis out.
The “yeshivish” person may OR may NOT be actually more serious about their actual observance than a non-yeshivish person. I don’t think one should ever judge actual frumkeit or ehrlichkeit(i.e. seriousness about their Yiddishkeit) by appearances.
