    Does anyone know what the literal translation of the word “frum” is? It’s opposite, “frei”, literally means “free”.

    I always assumed the literal translation was “religious”. Though I despite labels whether “frum”, “Orthodox”, “religious”, “Chareidi”, and all else.

    The exact translation is “pious”.

    *typo above: “despite” should have read “despise”.
