Following the analogy of cha'bIp and cha'Do, I get "parpar," the Hebrew word
for "butterfly."
In the past MO has "indicated" that the English word for "avian" might be
more appropriate when talking about Depmey in the chal/muD than "bird."
While I have no further evidence of what a cha'par is or isn't, I throw this
idea onto our listserv.
