What is the yiddish term for friend?

The most common Yiddish word for "friend" is "חבר" (khaver).

However, there are other words used depending on the context and the closeness of the relationship:

* "פֿרײַנד" (fraind): This is a more formal term, often used for acquaintances or friends you don't know very well.

* "קאָמוּן" (komun): This word means "companion" and is used for close friends.

* "בּאַל־חבר" (bal-khaver): This literally means "dance companion" and is used for a close friend with whom you share a lot of fun.

The best choice of word depends on the specific situation and the speaker's relationship with the person they are referring to.
