re: #411 SanFranciscoZionist
I guess it doesn’t make much sense if there’s only one person on the line.
But still.
My mother once talked on the phone to a guy from the Houston BJE, who told her that he just wanted to ‘wish a shayna tovah to y’all’.
For the non-Jews in the area, that’s ‘happy New Year’, and it’s pronounced ‘shah-nah tovah’, unless you’re from Houston.
