OK, that's what it means in Yiddish/English (well, it's a little more specific than that). I inferred from Philip's message that Henrik had a different (presumably German) meaning in mind. I know that Yiddish got a lot of vocabulary from German but the words don't always mean the same thing even when they have the same form.. -- Mark J. Reed <markjreed@...>
