Tangential, and probably not RS, but interesting[edit]

A Long-Forgotten Jewish Remedy for the Coronavirus Outbreak: "In the last century there was a particularly Jewish response to a life-threatening epidemic. It was known in Yiddish as the Shvartze Chassaneh, the Black Wedding, and took place in response to the terrible waves of cholera, typhus, and influenza that ravaged the Jews of Eastern Europe, Israel, and North America."

Black[edit]

@User:Beemer69 The AP style guide recommendation is to capitalize the word "Black" when referring to people. Lower case when referring to the color. Bohemian Baltimore (talk) 22:04, 7 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Schvartze[edit]

Schvartze in Yiddish simply means "black". It is not derogatory. It is correct Yiddish for the color black. 99.62.114.51 (talk) 05:55, 18 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

The N-word has the same etymology as schvartze. If you could be honest with yourself, I think you would agree that the latter is no less derogatory than the former. To underscore this point, what could possibly be wrong with Hymie, if its etymology comes from "life", or Zhyd, which simply means "Jew"? StonyBrook _babble 17:33, 18 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
