Yiddish

Word of the day: Altacaca

An alatacaca is a Yiddish word that usually refers to an old grumpy yet concerned Jewish man who sprays spit everywhere when he speaks.

I watched Whoopi Goldberg on Bravo this morning.
I forgot how funny she is.

Really. She was pretty funny.
She talked about her life when she was young and how society has changed from then to now-to me, that is hilarious.


I have watched Clueless twice in three days.
Weirdly, I like it.
Don't judge.

how is that pronounced? cause thats one of the most amazing words i've ever read with one of the most amazing definitions attached to it and i want to be able to utilize it correctly if the opportunity presents itself.

my only other question:
it USUALLY refers to that? what does it refer to when it DOESNT refer to that?
