Most of these words don't have a 1 word equivalent in English but the full range of meaning can be easily captured with a short definition. Yiddish has good examples where words actually do not translate easily. EG, schmendrick and schmuck both translate as "a fool", but have distinct shades of meaning that aren't trivially explained. "Nu" is an interjection that has several specific meanings that require long examples to explain, EG: https://forward.com/culture/12736/just-say-nu-01335/ https://forward.com/culture/12736/just-say-nu-01335/ If you like that kind of stuff I highly recommend The Joys Of Yiddish https://www.amazon.com/Joys-Yiddish-Leo-Rosten-1968-06-23/dp/B01NH0D7HA/ https://www.amazon.com/Joys-Yiddish-Leo-Rosten-1968-06-23/dp...
