joepilsudski: In Hebrew, the word 'goyim' simply means 'nation'...however, the Rabbis taught that 'goyim' actually meant 'non-Jewish' nation...'Shegetz' means 'dity goy', and one derivative is 'shiksa' which means 'unclean goy female', or prostitute.
The Jewish termins we've borrowed are all about criminal slang. That's aforesaid "shiksa" which we put as "chiksa" for sluts, "fraer" for "goy male", "pacan" (for boy... "potz" means "dick") etc. When I read the dictionary of "Russian" criminal jargon I understand almost nothing.
