Congratulations, dear Winner, from Germany! Your story is amazing. Now I only wish that your knowledge may be crowned by the gift of a big plate packed with the most delicious knaidels you ever tasted!

often eat here knaidels but we do not bother much about spelling the word, not in Yiddish or English, anyway. Most important is their delicious taste especially with chicken soup. Congrats for winning the nationals ! It's a hell of an achievement. Now, you will have to focus on conquering physics, as well.

For the last few years, Americans of Indian origin have been winning a lot of the spelling bees. We are proud of you Arvind. M-A-Z-A-L T-O-V!!!

Does anyone eat only one? I've never used the singular 'knaidel'. I must admit I have taught many Anglo-Indian boys but I can't spell any Indian words, although I can spell a few German words.
