jew-dar

A term for the phantom sense that one may have to identify (fellow) practitioners of the Jewish faith.

My jew-dar was totally going off all throughout the "Harry Potter" film. I knew Daniel Radcliffe was Jewish just by seeing him.

jewdar

An insanely useful way of detecting the presence of another Jew in the near vicinity mainly by looks or auditory sample. You are one lucky bastard if you posess this and are not in fact a Jew yourself.

jewdar

The innate ability to detect Jewishness in another person. Like a sixth sense.

"Yo check out the guy with the pigtails and yammulke. Jewdar off the charts."
"Oh you mean Jedediah over there? No, he's Presbyterian, obviously, bitch."

Some guy: "Shalom baby, 'jew' lookin' mighty fine tonight."
Girl: "What!!?!? I'm not Jewish, motherfucker. I'm Hindu. Nice jewdar."
Some guy: "Oh, sorry, I didn't see that red dot on your head. And that kimono or whatever it is. Oh yeah, and I guess you do look sort of Indian too. So, how 'bout you take me back to the reservation with you? You can be Pocahontas and I'll be the John Smith. Then we can bang."
