khavershaft
Language: English
Part of speech: noun
Etymology: Borrowed from Yiddish חבֿרשאַפֿט (khavershaft).
Senses: examples: text: However, self-assertion in an increasingly anti-Semitic climate was possible only through the strong internal coherence of the Bundist meshpokhe (family), which comprised a complex community of Jews from all walks of life – a community characterized by strong convictions and solidarity. The meshpokhedikeyt was apparently a trade mark of the Bund for contemporaries, too. However, meshpokhedikeyt and khavershaft (comradeship) did not mean that there were no conflicts. As in any proper family, there were repeated ‘family fights’ within the Bund – top–down between the party leadership and the party base, and horizontally between the moderate party majority, the Eynser, and the boisterous left wing, the Tsveyer. Nevertheless, internal conflicts were conducted in the context of a highly developed political culture of reflection and controversy, probably unprecedented in the history of political parties in the twentieth century.
ref: 2016, Dieter Gosewinkel, Dieter Rucht, Gertrud Pickhan, chapter 5, in Transnational Struggles for Recognition: New Perspectives on Civil Society since the 20th Century, page 164:
text: Finally, khavershaft highlighted internal networks of trust and solidarity that were important underpinnings of communities, especially for Bundist immigrants.

Horn OK Please
Language: English
Part of speech: phrase
Etymology: The exact bracketing of the phrase is unclear (see 2014 quotation).
Senses: examples: text: ‘Awaaz Do’ […] is another way of expressing the single most phrase painted on the backs of lorries, ‘Horn OK please’
At first I thought I got the gist: please horn, OK? For the enormous trucks that rarely made use of their rear-view mirrors, it was essential to let them know of your desire to pass. However, I did find myself pondering, especially after several hours of chevron hypnosis, that there may be more than one way of viewing this curious assemblage of words. Was ‘horn’ a command or simple noun in this case? How to interpret the combination of the collaborative ‘OK’ with the supplicatory ‘please’? The more I thought about it, the less sense the phrase made and the more the three words appeared to have accidentally collided with one another to make a vaguely baffling bumper sticker.

text: [D]isplaying the phrase "Horn OK Please" is a gross violation of Section 134 (1) of the Maharashtra Motor Vehicle Rules, which deals with signages to be used on the rear and sides of vehicles.
