“I don’t think there’s any excuse for soaking poorly like that”
what was your excuse for this “You wanna keep Ashkenaz Havara” ?
“What does Shalos Seudos even mean? Three meals . But you’re trying to say Third Meal. Never understood that.”
Ask and you shall receive?
There is a classic vort I believe attributed to the Minchas Elazar, that by eating the third meal, you get schar for all three, hence “shalosh Seudos”. how so? Eating a Friday night mea, isnt necessarily done lekavod Shabbos, we eat supper every day. similarly the second meal, we eat lunch every day. However a third meal, especially on a short afternoon, THAT is unusual, most of u s dont sit down to wash have a meal 3 hours after lunch. by doing so we get credit for all three meals, as this shows out eating is (and was) lekavod Shabbos .
Seriously though, the question is a bit silly. expressions dont always “make sense” my kid asks “why do you say take a bath, where do you take it?” Language often has quirks that arent “logical” per se
rational
do you have an example where יתד operates in the masculine?
