Yid
The word Yid (; (イディッシュ語:ייִד)) is a slang Jewish ethnonym of Yiddish origin. Its usage may be controversial in modern English language. It is not usually considered offensive when pronounced (rhyming with ''deed''), the way Yiddish speakers say it, though some may deem the word offensive nonetheless. When pronounced (rhyming with ''did''), some have perceived it as pejorative — and has been used as a derogatory epithet by antisemites along with, and as an alternative to, the English word 'Jew'.〔(Kim Pearson's ''Rhetoric of Race'' ) by Eric Wolarsky. The College of New Jersey.〕
Supporters of the English football club Tottenham Hotspur F.C. adopted the nickname "Yid" (or "Yiddo") and often identify as "Yid Army" - as a direct response to opposition fans originally using the word against them as a form of taunting and abuse. "Yid" is used as a badge of pride by the supporters of Tottenham Hotspur F.C., both those who are Jewish and non-Jewish. Such usage is controversial, and in 2013 has been addressed by the UK Society for Black Lawyers (an equality lobby group), as well as the British Prime Minister.〔(“David Cameron: Yid is not hate speech when it’s Spurs" ) from Jewish Chronicle. Jewish Chronicle.〕
==Etymology==
The term ''Yid'' has its origins in the Middle High German word ''ドイツ語:Jüde'' (the contemporary German word is ''ドイツ語:Jude'').
Leo Rosten provides the following etymology:
From the German: Jude: 'Jew.' And 'Jude' is a truncated form of Yehuda, which was the name given to the Jewish Commonwealth in the period of the Second Temple. That name, in turn, was derived from the name of one of Jacob's sons, Yehuda (Judah, in English), whose descendants constituted one of the tribes of Israel and who settled in that portion of Canaan from Jerusalem south to Kadesh-Barnea (50 miles south of Beersheba) and from Jericho westwards to the Mediterranean.〔Leo Rosten: ''The Joys of Yiddish'', 1968. Cited in (Kim Pearson's ''Rhetoric of Race'' ) by Eric Wolarsky. The College of New Jersey.〕
