10. I think it is pronounced Kurva
http://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/kurva


Check out the first Albanian definition for what I mean.
I don't know how they spell it in yiddish but it's the same word in a few languages.

13. The old joke: what's the Yiddish phrase for "Fuck you"?
"Trust me"...(said with that Brooklyn inflection)

As dick Gregor once said on Carson years ago when he told a joke about black people: "I can tell that joke" (with emphasis on the "I")
