Someone who isnt quite good enough, or hasnt properly achieved being a full blown jew, but is infact Jew - ish.
What you did there, that was a little bit jewish.
When your name is Joey and you're jewish.
Dan: Hey Joey.
Joey: It's Jewy, damn you!
An endearing reference to Jewish cultural or religious practices.
But “Jewy” suggests something in between. To be labeled “Jewy” means you don’t just identify as a “cultural Jew,” but that you affirm that identity in consistent and meaningful ways. A Jewy Jew may belong to a synagogue, but might get together once a month with a havura for potluck. A Jewy Jew may count himself as a good progressive, and remain attached to Israel, often strongly. A Jewy Jew plays in a rock and roll band, but not on Friday nights.
“Jewish” is static — it describes an accident of birth or upbringing. “Jewy” is dynamic — it assumes affirmative Jewish choices, or an unmistakable quality that impels others to recognize your Jewishness.
