Capot, Kaputt, kaput.
The English word Kaput originated with a French card game. Players used “capot” for both big winners and big losers. German speakers adopted it, respelling as kaputt, and used it only for losers. When English borrowed the word from German, they started using kaput for things that were broken, useless, or destroyed.

#LessonOfTheDay
Today begins the Hebrew month of Av (אב)—a time of deep remembrance and resilience.
Though we mourn the destruction of the Temples on the 9th of Av, this month reminds us of our power to transform sorrow into strength.
“Av” means father—a hint that even in grief, we are held and guided.
Hebrew embraces life’s depth. Through learning it, we honor the past and build a hopeful future.
חודש אב טוב — May this Av be a good month
