surfer: please rephrase so that my brain can comprehend
i know, sy. that’s what my point was. AL2 is NOT ashkenAz.
areivem ze”lo”ze–this is my pronuncation-respecting my ashkenazi roots.
The truth is that we are all getting farmisht here. there was a time when Poilisher would never marry a Hungarian and for an Ashkenazi to marry a Sefardi was unheard. Very happily, these prejudices are gradually leaving us….
All of us have something to contribute- the litvishe their learning, the chassdim their “lebedikheit’, the sefardim, their piety, the yekkers, their “cuisine”. oops, that cannot be true, so the yekkers their “yashrus” and the sabras their courage !
rabbi- i don’t see the diff between ur pronunciation & mine
areivim,
yup american as apple pie. straight back to the mayflower.
areivimzehlazeh: your right about me!!! my fathers side is israeli actually & my mom’s all american so i’m a mix of both tho!!!
lol my bad. ok you’re still 100% syrian – i can tell them a mile away :}
Brooklyn19- Please pardon my ignorance. I didn’t know there was a difference between Ashkenaz and Ashkenoz. I’ve got no Sephardi blood in me except for some Sephardi friends… if that counts 🙂 I like all Jews no matter their descent.
Areivim- american? cmon you could do better..
I actually am ashkenaz though most people think otherwise because of my dark looks..
beacon – plenty of sephardic jews are light skinned – even blonde and blue. typical stereotype.
sephardic
those are stolen genes, young lady, stolen genes.
nothing stolen about it…..my granfather has no ashkenaz heritage what so ever and he is fair skinned and has blue eyes…. does that mean beacons parents are theives as well?
brooklyn, I didn’t say otherwise..
no kidding?! lol that’s like writing “tawil”
brooklyn is also part sephardi.
AL2 – they’re pronounced differently. if you knew the dialects you’d be able to read the diff :}
hey im syrian
joseph – that’s strange. i always thought my grandparents lived through the holocaust… maybe i’m confusing it with the yom kippur war…
brooklyn19: you speak sfardi avarah because of the school you teach in?????
Tawil means Tall in Arabic- Wow there are so many syrians. You are taking over the CR. My husbands grandparents were from Syria.
Sephardic + Ashkenaz.
I’m Sephardic.
kibbehNtehine: welcome to the coffee room!!! head to the new member thread so the coffee room board members could give ya a proper welcome!!!
brooklyn – I’m talking about the other side of the family.
the Hungarian side? oh right…
No brook, your paternal side.
Joseph, are you Hungarian? My Grandmother was from Debrecin. Maybe we are related??!!
that was the paternal side! i mean, the first one was!
Mazal, maybe! Family from Budapest and Nirithazer.
brook, I’m talking about the other one.
If you originate from Hungary and your not a direct descendant of the Chasam Sofer- I want tour autograph!!!
My maternal side is Yekke. My father’s side is a mutt! Romanian, Hungarian, Polish and Czechoslovakian. Truth be told though, the borders changed so frequently that they all might have lived in the same city LOL.
ames- chillzich. or how would you say it in ur language? i don’t think anyone was slighted on this thread, we’re all cool. you are who you are- be proud of it
Charlie- the Mayflower was from England. you revealing sumfin here?
Joseph- you scream hungarian
beacon- tell you the truth, i was very undecided bout you. Guess ur hungarian or yekkish (i don’t think ur polish)
squeak- WHAT ARE YOU? i’ll tell you: you’re a complete enigma. I can’t figure out your age range, where you live, or what ur origin is. good undercover work. you employed by the mossad?
oh i know- squeak works for the Obama administration. sent to get the inside scoop on the jewish world. what better place than the CR??
ames- lebanese huh??
Dad’s side is israeli mom’s=american!
areivim, squeak is in his 50’s.
areivim, every time you post about me I get a warm and fuzzy feeling inside!!!!!!!!!
that’s the hungarian side!
wrong again, areivim..you’ll never figure me out
that does it. squeak in his 50’s- i need time to digest this one (and need to re-evaluate how to correspond with a 50 yr old)
beacon ur killin me
areivim, every time you post about me I get a warm and fuzzy feeling inside!!!!!!!!!
