There's Biblical Hebrew, Aramaic, most of us know some Yiddish and some have spoken Ladino, but what are Jews speaking now?

British Jewish teenagers have invented their own unique slang for everyday life. It's a mixture of English, Yiddish and modern Hebrew. Here are the top five ‘Jewish words' that we use every day.

1) Frummer: A description of someone who is religious.

Example: If you are out with your mates, and someone shows up in black with a top hat, you might say, “I didn't know you turned frummer.”

This year I was fortunate enough to be one of the 6,000 Brits that spent Passover in Israel. Along with my family, I arrived at Ben Gurion Airport tired and excited the day before the seder, ready to experience the highs and lows of celebrating a familiar holiday in a not-so-familiar country. My family just bought a small apartment in the seaside town of Netanya, north of Tel Aviv, so that's where I was based for my holiday.

It's Motzei Shabbat, Saturday night in a house in Finchley, North London and a group of 14-year-old girls are primping. Between straightening hair and applying makeup, choosing outfits and deciding on jewellery, these girls are texting, using msn and calling their friends to arrange what to do that night. Hurriedly they argue; “Go to the cinema?” “Stay in?” “Go to Hampstead?” “Go to Solly's?” The scene is similar in many Jewish homes in North London.

Ever wonder what it's like to be Jewish on the other side of the Atlantic? I'll start by saying that we don't have our own European Jewish teen magazine like JVibe, but there's definitely more to it than that. Let me introduce myself.

My name is Josh, I'm 18 and I live in London, England. I am in my last year of high school where I am studying English Literature, History and Geography. I spend my spare time with my friends, playing double bass, reading, and going to gigs and museums in London.
