This is a great review, but "Chochky" meant nothing to me. Changing your headline to hopefully give it better play. And how did I miss that swag?
Danny, thanks for the great input. I’ll work on that in the future :)
My family always spelled it tchotchkes :)
Yeah, I think the spelling is "tchotchkes". It’s Yiddish for "trinket": http://www.google.com/search?q=define%3Atchotchke
Actually - there are multiple, variant spellings, but I think "tchotchke" is the dominant one.
Actually when I researched the spelling...the popular spellings I came up with were Chochky and Chotsky.
Thanks for the links to the spelling, I stand corrected.
There isn’t really a right and wrong, because the word is being transliterated from a different alphabet. And then there’s the pronunciation. Yiddish has a lot of regional differences, from Germany to Russia, Poland, Lithuania, etc. and that’s also apparently affected by how removed the speaker is from a native speaker -- people I know whose families have been in the US longer than mine has pronounce things much more American than we do -- a lot less swallowed syllables, back of the throat ch and r sounds, that sort of thing. But it’s a very cool language.
