I am a Chinese boy from slabotka (a town in Poland) and dont drive me crazy, and i dont mean maybe.

hehehe, i love Bud Jamison's expressions while Larry is speaking

The great Bud Jamison

The China reference is "Ikh bin a China boychik" (I'm a Chinese kid.) Later, he uses the unrelated word "chaynik" (tshaynik), as in "hak mir nisht keyn tshaynik", which means "don't bang on a teakettle for me" (i.e. don't hassle me). It would be funny if he used the "tshaynik" expression because it sounds so similar to "China".

Not all Jews speak Yiddish. Only those who come from eastern Europe do. Sephardic Jews, from southern Europe and North Africa, speak Ladino. Families of Jews from the Middle East speak a Judaic-Arabic. Today, all have mostly been replaced by modern Hebrew. I remember once getting into an argument with someone over the Marx Brothers. That person insisted the Marx Brothers would have spoken Yiddish. I said no because their mother was from Germany and their father from France. German and French Jews did not speak Yiddish, at least not before WWII. After WWII, some Hasidic families did relocate there, and they speak Yiddish, but before WWII? No.

@@theintrovertedaspie9095 I am Jewish and both my parents were born in Germany. Neither they nor my grandparents spoke Yiddish. My childhood was spent among German Jewish immigrants, and not one spoke Yiddish. Yes, Yiddish is a combination of German and Hebrew, with a bit of Russian, Romanian, Hungarian, and other Eastern European languages thrown in (depending on where the speaker is from), but German Jews did not speak it. While German Jews are considered Ashkenazic, their minhagim (customs and traditions) can be quite different than eastern European Jews. Eastern European Jews normally do not wear a tallis before marriage, while German Jews do. For a Shabbos and Yom Tov meal, eastern European Jews wash their hands before blessing and eating bread. German Jews wash their hands before taking and blessing the wine. Don't assume that whatever is true for eastern European Ashkenazim is true for German Ashkenazim, because often it is not.

From my understanding, this is an idiomatic expression having nothing to do with China, but chaynik refers to a teakettle. And the phrase would have been used like knocking about like an empty teakettle.

@@dkim2011 Chaynik can mean both a teakettle and a teapot. It comes from the word "chay" - tea (in Russian). Thus, a chaynik is a tea utensil, regardless of material it's made of.

He first said he’s a “boychik from China”. The phrase he used with Tchaynik literally translates to “don’t bang on a teakettle”. My father was quite fond of that idiom. It basically means stop being annoying. It’s usually used when someone is making a lot of noise for no reason other than to be annoying (picture a hyperactive child running around the house banging a tea kettle with a spoon repeatedly). The joke being that China and Tchaynik sound alike.

@scottdenbina8843

"Chaynik" (Russian orthography, чайник), is also the actual Russian word for a teakettle. This is no surprise since Yiddish is, for the most part, an admixture of some Hebrew words, some Russian words, and a whole lot of German words, with Hebrew endings, written with Hebrew characters. It was the language of the street in Israel up until the 1970s, but has been almost entirely supplanted by the proper Hebrew language. The only remaining regularly-printed Yiddish newspaper is in New York City. Yiddish is a dying language, and I guess that's a good thing for reasons I won't go into here, but along with it goes the rich literary tradition of the Eastern European Ashkenaz culture that is now no more than a fading ghost of its former glory, and that is sad.
