I was a bit annoyed with that interview bc the interviewer did not tell each one of us that she was interviewing the other and asking us the same questions.

We made each other look a little silly at times...

Where did u find the YU Beacon?

I'm not sure. I think I saw it posted on Facebook.

"By" also means "next to" in standard English . . . [Wink]

(And I'm wondering why my Google Alert didn't catch that article. Thanks for the link, Lisa.)

I just now watched the Candlelight video. I'm assuming that's Hebrew in the lyrics--may I ask what the translation is?

(oh, and it was FANTASTIC, by the way. [Big Grin] )

Nayce gah-dole haya shahm means "a great miracle happened there". Ahl hah-neeseem is the name of a prayer that gets added to our daily prayers and grace after meals during Hanukkah. And Mah-oze tzoor is the Hebrew song sometimes called Rock of Ages in English, which is traditionally sung on Hanukkah.

Sorry, I'll reiterate, there's *a* "standard English?"
