    It's already in the dictionary. That's where you got your answer.

    Shtickler. I actually use shmutz quite often. I grew up hearing it. This post was edited by Element 99 at March 31, 2024 7:57 AM MDT

    I do, too.  It's such an expressive word as are many Yiddish expressions.

    Chalant be anxious and overreact. 

    I felt like if there is a nonchalant then has to be a chalant.
