Re: [Cz-L] Chonte

Sylvya,
 This thread started as a research of words of Ukrainean origin
  used in Yiddish. The origin of Chonte is still a puzzle.
  Any other allusions are incidental.

hello all - I'm with Hedwig in finding amazing such a protracted
conversation on how to label a woman of ill repute - got me wondering what
would be the name for a man of that ilk?

best wishes
Sylvia
