Yiddish Slang Dictionary
The next time you're at a party and
someone calls you a shlemiel (oaf)
when you spill your soda, whip out
the Yiddish Slang Dictionary on your
smartphone for an appropriate retort.
Thanks to this app, Yiddish experts
and neophytes alike can parse the
language's rich rhetorical epithets. The
dictionary includes common words
shlep (haul), mentsh (a good person)
along with more obscure bon mots
such as tummler (entertainer) and
shmutter (apparel).
The Amazing Jewish
Fact-A-Day Calendar
Can you name the play into which
Shakespeare slipped some Hebrew?
What do you know about the Talmud's
seemingly prophetic stance on air-
planes? This app informs users about
important historical events that
occurred on that date, fascinating
religious practices and famous figures.
Learn about everything from Louis
Armstrong's early job working for a
Jewish family to historic disagree-
ments between Hillel and Shammai.
Going Paprikash
Before World War II, as many as
250,000 Jews lived in Budapest, fill-
ing the Hungarian capital's 125
synagogues. When they weren't pray-
ing, they were cooking up a treasure
trove of culinary treats, such as rakott
krumpli (potato casserole), paprikas
csirke (chicken paprikas) and gom-
boc (dumplings). Those longing for
a taste of Hungary's Jewish heritage
can download this app, which features
120 kosher Hungarian recipes and the
tales of how they came to be.

Thumb twiddlers on subways and in
office meetings can now brush up on
their Jewish symbols while passing the
time: A new version of the logic game
Sudoku, usually played with numbers,
features images such as the shofar, the
Star of David and Hebrew letters. Just
make sure to follow the cardinal rule
of the game: no more than one meno-
rah in each three-by-three box. II
