You're not addressing my question: is kaput cultural appropriation by your definition?

(Anonymous) 2014-06-22 04:00 am (UTC)(link)
I would personally not use the word. I don't come from a background where are a lot of Ashkenazi Jewish people. (I grew up in a suburb in the Midwest where the largest minorities were Latino and Hmong people.) It would be unnatural and, yes, appropriative for it to be a part of my lexicon. When it enters into a regional vocabulary by way of immigrants who disseminate parts of their ethnic background into the culture they immigrate to, which is how most Yiddish vocabulary entered the American English lexicon (very different from middle-class white kids deciding to use the words because they have a hard-on for a culture they have no stake in), that's more acceptable.

Welp, better stop speaking then because you seem to have no fucking idea on how many English words come from other cultures.

Oh my god you're a fucking idiot and have no idea about how language works.
