Trifecta Week 106: Tush
This week we wanted to do something to mark the Jewish holiday of Hanukkah, and we foolishly thought that would be easy. There are so many amazing Yiddish words that found their way into the English language, and we thought it would be great to highlight one. To find one with a third definition, however, was not so easy. We thought all was lost until we stumbled upon this gem.
tush
1. a long pointed tooth; especially : a horse’s canine2. an interjection used to express disdain or reproach3. buttocks (slang)
Happy Hanukkah to our Jewish friends. Now let’s all write our tushes off.Remember:

We were on a tour of St. Peter’s Basilica in Vatican City. Leon, the tour director, was pointing out the interesting places, when we came upon the scene below.
Without missing a beat he said:
“Au contraire mon frefe, if your derriere could use a little cush, no need to pout, the word is out. It’s the fat lady’s Tush.”
