Reply To: Where's The Mentchlichkyt?!

nfgo3; I don’t want to hurt anyone’s feelings, but as you state in the beginning of the post that you are not fluent (That’s understating it a little.) in Yiddish. Now to your Critique (of the Original Poster.) “Mentschlicht/heit” is not a word used in Yiddish. Possibly. Not in German, either. In German (Who’s interested?!) it’s “Mentschlichheit”. But we are speaking (and critiqueing) Yiddish. Furthermore, the word, when spelled correctly, is Gender Neutral. (I hope you don’t need an explanation of that term.). “Chutzpah”, in its original form meant Rudensess. It was later expanded to mean “Unmitigated gall”, Courage. I will not critique a dental surgeon, for example. Because I have no familiarity with that line of work.
