Originally posted by RRHIs it only me who finds the term 'yid' offensive?
An Eastern European Jew. The term is often interpreted as offensive, which is a major misconception. The word Yiddish is not offensive, so neither is Yid. The word Yid is used to differentiate between an Eastern European, Yiddish-speaking Jew and an Israeli, Hebrew-speaking Jew.
So it would seem. Not the only thing you are swimming against the tide on though.Last edited by shaunbhoy; 12 April 2007, 14:33.“The period of the disintegration of the European Union has begun. And the first vessel to have departed is Britain”Comment

Originally posted by RRHIs it only me who finds the term 'yid' offensive?Science isn't about why, it's about why not. You ask: why is so much of our science dangerous? I say: why not marry safe science if you love it so much. In fact, why not invent a special safety door that won't hit you in the butt on the way out, because you are fired. - Cave JohnsonComment

Originally posted by sasguruNot quite SB. That's like saying Paki is just short for Pakistani. It could be but the history of its usage makes it more than that. I'd like to see you use the word Yid in Israel...
As gingerjedi says, many a Spurs fan happily refers to themselves as a Yid. Don't know why RRH is getting all bent out of shape, unless one of the chips has fallen off his shoulder.“The period of the disintegration of the European Union has begun.
