Bechod

What is Bechod?


1.

Wonderful Welsh word meaning 'shame' or 'pity' — used (more's the pity) only in Welsh English as a way of expressing moderate poignancy, compassion, or empathy for an ironic or pathos-laden situation. Or even just as an indicator of cuteness.

"Bechod on him: he bought her a very expensive ring and a day later she left with his best friend."

"What a lovely kitten! Bechod!"

A better example of the sheer potency of the word might be:

"Bechod! Our one-legged, 102-year-old neighbour mowed our lawn whilst we were away on holiday in the Bahamas!"

See shame, pity, bless, sympathy, empathy, aww, pathos, welsh, wales
