Word For The Day, Wednesday, 2/12/03
2/12/03

Posted on 02/12/2003 12:33:25 AM PST by Bella_Bru

In order that we might all raise the level of discourse and expand our language abilities, here is the daily post of “word for the day”. Rules: Everyone must leave a post using the “word of the day”; in a sentence. The sentence must, in some way, relate to the news of the day. The Review threads are linked for your edification. ;-) Practice makes perfect.....post on....


Teacher's note:

On Monday, I gave this word as an alternate for some students. It's all in good fun, but you do know that I get irked sometimes.

kvetch\KVECH\, intransitive verb:
kvetch, noun

To complain habitually.

noun:
1. A complaint.
2. A habitual complainer.

Etymology: Kvetch comes from Yiddish kvetshn, "to squeeze, to complain," from Middle High German quetzen, quetschen, "to squeeze."

Good Morning Class. Welcome to School!

patience, skill, and care are the best tools of the trade. And a good ear to detect those minute changes in pitch that signify er certain inpending events, or crescendos.

The French and the Germans are kvetches
Nasty, despicable wretches
When the war loot is divvied
They'll expect to be privvied
Like a dog, getting treats when he fetches
