...never knew how to spell "guzpe!" Thanks!And you still don't. The word basically means "gall" in Hebrew, and it has come into widespread use in English through Yiddish (where it also acquired the extra meaning of "attitude" and the stress on the first syllable. In spoken Hebrew the stress is on the second one). The more common spelling would be Chutzpah.
HAHAHA - I guess it's like everything else here - you have to be able to sort the wheat from the chaff... 😉
