a 'ghetto' with reference to a person is a person from a ghetto!
So if the ghetto is Jewish, a Jew from that ghetto is a ghetto-Jew.
Are u in Canada?
So, as abuse, you can refer to
any person as a ghetto-whatever (Jew, black, etc). He/she can be referred to as 'freaking ghetto' in that the word is truncated (shortened), as with a word like calling someone a 'div' instead of a 'divvy' (a stupid fool).
*I must warn you that all of this is highly offensive. If you were to say this to someone you did not know, a fight would probably start!!!*quote:
kike - retarded Jew-monkey
Monkey? There is reference to a monkey...kike is in fact 'Yiddish'; the language of eastern European Jews. During the huge immigration of Jews into the US in the 30s, a lot did not know how to read or write. So the immigration officers learnt a Yiddish word: kike - meaning circle, as these immigrants could not sign their name, were told to draw a 'kike', a circle. So it became the main abuse for an illiterate Jew in the US.
