Etymology

The word 'nosh' originates from Yiddish, derived from the term 'nashn,' meaning to nibble or snack. This term made its way into colloquial English, particularly in the United States, where it gained popularity in the 20th century. Yiddish was widely spoken among Eastern European Jews, and their cultural influence has contributed many words to American English. 'Nosh' conveys a sense of casualness and comfort associated with eating, reflecting social gatherings and informal dining situations. Its usage has evolved, but it still retains its connotation of light, enjoyable eating.
