May 17, 2016 1:14 am at 1:14 am #1151934 MammeleParticipant Context is really needed here. May 17, 2016 1:24 am at 1:24 am #1151935 JosephParticipant Stand; put; chair (different pronunciation). Unless you’re referring to a shteller, a position. Or you mean a tzu shtel… May 17, 2016 1:39 am at 1:39 am #1151936 zahavasdadParticipant I think he means Shtetl. A small village in Eastern Europe May 17, 2016 1:42 am at 1:42 am #1151937 JosephParticipant Shtetl has officially become an English word as well. May 17, 2016 1:49 am at 1:49 am #1151938 ShiiMember No like to “Shtel hock” May 17, 2016 1:58 am at 1:58 am #1151939 feivelParticipant I think he means shtel. Google probably thinks he means shtetl though. May 17, 2016 2:11 am at 2:11 am #1151940 MammeleParticipant To place/set. Now what does hock mean here? May 17, 2016 9:21 pm at 9:21 pm #1151941 Zev7Member Closest English word i can think of is ‘Deliver’. May 17, 2016 9:25 pm at 9:25 pm #1151942 Zev7Member “Chaim Zev said he is going to Shtell the Cholent” He will deliver/pull through with the cholent for the party. May 17, 2016 9:28 pm at 9:28 pm #1151943 Zev7Member Someone can call across the table, “Moshe, can you Shtell the Sprite please?” which would lead one to think that the word can mean ‘pass’. But in that context it is really being used to say the same thing with a stronger lashon.
