rabbi

Almost always used in conjunction with a Jewish holy man. Word originally simply meant teacher.

Although it is usually used with Judaism, the word is not Hebrew, it is Greek.

We need to have little Josh circumsized, call the rabbi.

rabbi

1) A trusted teacher/advisor/leader of a Jewish community. Most often, they are true intellects that do have good advice and insightful philosophies of the world.

2) The Arabic word for the season of Spring. Actually pronounced rabb-ee with a glottal stop at the end.

If a teacher's or doctor's advice doesn't seem to fill you with certainty, consult a rabbi.

Shamm Iniseem aw Eed al-rabbi', the Spring festival of Egypt, falls on the same day as the Christian Orthodox Easter every year.

Rabby

the act of looking like a ratchet, messy, just plain gross. For example when someone gets drunk and starts acting trashy, or in many cases where a girl never cleans herself up and is always looking nasty

Oh my gosh, why does she come to school looking so rabby?
