What Will Happen If We Can Blocked The Word God And Allah On Y/a

Jews do you guys have any special sayings?

Yep, we've got a lot, to the point of being incomprehensible to outsiders (see http://www.bangitout.com/articles/viewar... , for example). Here are some of them:

B'ezrat Hashem or Im Yirtza Hashem- it's the equivalent of your Inshaalah. Literally, "With God's help" and "If God wills it".

Baruch Hashem- Thank God

Refuah Shelaimah- Complete recovery

Mazel Tov- Congratulations

Chas V'Shalom- God forbid (also Chas V'Chalila)

Bli/Kain Ayin Hara- No evil eye (like your Mashaallah)

Lo Aleinu- May this not happen to us (literally, "Not upon us")

L'Havdil- Literally, "to separate". Used when comparing two things that are so different, it's practically sacrilegious to have them in the same sentence.

Yasher Koach- Good job, congratulations

Z"TzaL- Said/written after the name of a great person who died. An acronym for "the memory of the righteous is a blessing"

Shlita- Probably an acronym for something else. Said after the name of a living righteous person.
