Russian criminal slang is full of Yiddish words: ksiva, frajer etc.
- chewz 6y agoThese particular words and more are still used in Polish - ksywa, frajer - not just in slang. However they drop out of use nowadays...
- aakkaarr 6y agoReminds me about the Czech song "szukam cię Miłoszu z Warszawy" where the pal is called "frajer" too, so Czech people use it too
- andrewshadura 6y agoIn Czech and Slovak frajer/frajerka are normally used to mean boyfriend/girlfriend (unlike e.g. in Russian).
