Czernowitzers would have said: "Hochstapler"! "Nur die Madam Polack!"

Mimi
Translation:
Czernowitzers would have said:
"Hochstapler!" (impostor, pretender) "Nur die Madam Polack" (only the madam
Polack, a fictitious newly
rich woman)
And: "Zewus daff men duss"? "Vel'n zey oich shluffen in der taradaika"?
( what does one need this for? Are they going to sleep in this vehicle?)
