Sigi_BC84 Posted April 19, 2006 Report Share Posted April 19, 2006 In German: Pik Coeur Karo TreffIn more common games the same suits are named:Pik Herz, Karo, KreuzI guess one should pick the second option (♠Pik, ♥Herz, ♦Karo, ♣Kreuz) which are the "official" names. If the request is specifically about Bridge, go for the first option.(This was just for clarification, not nitpicking ;-).--Sigi Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Elianna Posted April 20, 2006 Report Share Posted April 20, 2006 In hebrew ♠pic (not a hebrew word)♥Lev ♦Yahalom ♣Tiltan I seem to remember a different word for spades, but don't remember what (my hebrew isn't that great). Something like "alleh". I'm not sure, though. But I had never heard the word "pic". I totally believe you, that people use it, but my grandparents were sticklers for not substituting non-hebrew words, so I know that they used something else, if only I could remember what it is. :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
