    yamaka

    I think you mean Yarmulke?

    Actually, according to Wikipedia that’s an accepted spelling, but I’ve never ever seen it spelled that way before, and the source for that spelling is “jewish.shop”, so I don’t know.

      Oh! I never realized. Maybe the spelling I used comes from people hearing it and having no idea how to spell it and eventually it became “accepted”.
