商品簡介
Welcome to Fractured Yiddish Fables, a whimsical journey into the heart of the Old Country, where clever tales and colorful characters offer playful origins for the beloved words and expressions that have made Yiddish a language of warmth, wit, and wisdom.
In these pages, you'll discover how a kvetching chicken led to the birth of the word "kvetch," why a particularly nosy goat earned the honor of inspiring "schmooze," and how a thrifty tailor's mishap gave us the term "chutzpah." Each story blends humor, heart, and a dash of mischief to reimagine the roots of familiar phrases with a distinctly heimish (homey) twist.
These fables are filled with bubbes who know best, schlemiels who can't help but trip over their own shoes, and village gatherings where even the simplest bagel has a story to tell. With every tale, you'll be transported to a world where imagination meets tradition-and where a good laugh is always served with a side of schmaltz.
So pour yourself a cup of tea, grab a rugelach (or two), and prepare to delight in stories as hamish as a Shabbos dinner with family. May these fractured fables bring a smile to your face and a bit of nachas to your soul, just as much as I enjoyed bringing them to life.
