Oy Vey! Such bad mazel you are having. You tripped, banged your shnoz and fell on your tuchus. Then, oy vey is mir, you lost your vocab notebook the day before the big test! But don't worry, don't kvetch, your whole mishpachais here to help you, and they have plenty of unique, Yiddish words that'll help you ace that test like a MAVEN!
So quietly sit like the MENTSH that you are,
You're a YIDDISHKEIT MAVEN--
Collect your gold star!
When a boy loses the notebook of interesting words he collected for school, his extended family supplies a long list of Yiddish words to replace them. Includes pronunciations and definitions.
Ages 4-7.
