[edit] Translation

The following discussion was added to the article on 5 August 2007 by User:76.197.207.162:

Actually, the root of the word teiglach is teig, meaning dough. "Lach" is the Yiddish suffix that indicates plural. So, a plateful of these confections is a plate of "teiglach," while a single one is a "teigle." The same holds true for the more commonly known dessert called "ruglach" (often mispronounced in the U.S. as roogalla). A single one of these horn-shaped pastries is called a "ruggle"; "ruglach" is the plural form of the word.

I don't know which is correct, so I moved this here and added the dubious tag. --Mrwojo 05:20, 8 October 2007 (UTC)
