		"Shnorrer" is not a misspelling of "Karl Schnorrer".
		Shnorrer is an entry entirely devoted to a definition of a word (let's ignore "slang" here).
		Bartleby (http://www.bartleby.com/61/40/S0354050.html) lists shnorrer as "Slang Variant of schnorrer." Merriam-Webster (http://www.merriam-webster.com/cgi-bin/dictionary?book=Dictionaryandva=shnorrer) says "The word you've entered isn't in the dictionary," and suggests schnorrer.

	Schnorrer - Biocrawler (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-09)
		A schnorrer, also spelled shnorrer, is a Yiddish term meaning beggar or sponger.
		For instance, Azriel Hildesheimer, known for his travels around Europe to spread his rabbinical wisdom to the poor, and for his refusal to accept payment for his services, was sometimes referred to as the "international shnorrer" for his reliance on the local community to house and feed him wherever he went.
		The comedian Jackie Mason often pokes fun of the stereotype of Jews as shnorrers.

	Personal Letter — July 2003
		Instead of formulating — together with the Arab enemy — plans for the expulsion of Jews from Eretz Israel, the wicked PLO Authority and the other terrorist organizations must be eliminated, and Israeli sovereignty imposed on all of Judea, Samaria, and Gaza.
		Shnorrer is a Yiddish word that means “scrounger” or even “parasite” today, but in the past the shnorrer had a more noble function similar to that of the troubadour.
		And so I go out as a shnorrer to preach the important news that the end is coming (and I often perform on the piano and recorder).

	Charlotte Observer \| 12/02/2006 \| Should shopper wear a yarmulke? (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-09)
		What's most lamentable about your scheme is not its hypocrisy -- although there is that -- but its deceit: You would present yourself to be what you are not, someone who regularly wears a yarmulke, an object of religious significance.
		What's more, in ethics, intent counts, and yours is simply to cadge a discount, to be what genuine yarmulke-wearers might describe as, if not a ganef, certainly a shnorrer.
		As far as tactics go, I'm skeptical that a discount for the Orthodox is on offer.

		Once he heard that a wealthy man was on business in town and went to the man's hotel suite to ask him for a donation.
		The tycoon was arrogant and assumed that the Rav was a poor shnorrer, and after a few moments drove him out of his room.
		As soon as the speech ended, the man pushed his way toward the podium and in a tearful voice tried to attract the Rabbi's attention.

	THEATER: 'TATTERDEMALION,' A MUSICAL - New York Times
		This is the third incarnation of Judd Woldin's musical version of the Israel Zangwill novella, ''The King of Shnorrers.'' The word ''shnorrer'' is Yiddish for a panhandler, but that does not do justice to the title figure, Da Costa.
		Given the derivative feeling of plot, tunes and lyrics, all the more credit to the chorus for making ''Tatterdemalion'' seem at least sporadically so fresh.
		East End Shnorrer TATTERDEMALION, book, music and lyrics by Judd Woldin; directed by Eric Krebs; sets by Ed Wittstein; costumes by Patricia Adshead; lighting by Whitney Quesenbery; music supervision and arrangements, Peter Howard; musical staging, Mary Jane Houdina; musical direction, Edward G. Robinson; script editor, Amy Seidman; production stage manager, Patricia Flynn.

		Alas, we do not have the time to explore the nuances of each one, but read them aloud and you will sense their essence.
		A loser can be called a pisher, a yold, a shmutte, a shmendrek, a shmugegge, a schlumper, a shnorrer, a paskudnik, nudnik or no-goodnik.
		Another variant of loser is the schlepper, someone who drags his heels so often, he would need an entire shoe shop to fulfil his needs.

		He is told that the Baron's daughter had been married that week and that the wedding had been particularly costly and there were no funds left for charitable purposes.
		The shnorrer, reacting with a combination of understanding and protest, says: "I certainly don't mind the Baron marrying his daughter, but not with my money!"
		It was not always easy for Jews to earn a living when there were so many discriminatory laws limiting their activities; they were not to own land or to engage in many trades, which were regulated by professional guilds that accepted only Christian members.

	Israel Should Not Give or Receive
		Israel should not take money from the United States, fundamental Christian Zionists or the United Nations and yes… if we would take and not give, we would indeed be a bunch of hypocrites!
		aking money from the USA has given 5,000,000 Israelis a "shnorrer" mentality and has made us falsely believe that without that assistance Israel cannot exist.
		This financial aid has made America our "sugar daddy" and has created arrogant American politicians who feel they control the strings of a puppet called Israel.

		None of this, however, impressed Goldberg, who threw up his hands and cried: "Because things are rough for you, I have to suffer?"
		He's that Jewish archetype known as the shnorrer, a chutzpadik sort who actually feels entitled to a share of his donor's money.
		Goldberg is doing Rothstein a favor by giving him the opportunity to perform the mitzvah of tzedakah, or charitable giving.

		My own computer, though I got it wholesale from a good Jewish trader - Stanley Kalms, in fact – is thoroughly goyish and doesn’t know a word of Yiddish, nor any Hebew for that matter.
		Thus I only have to press the ‘spell’ key, and expressions like booba, zeida, yenta, shadchan, mechutan, shnorrer, and shlemiel are instantly changed to boob, zebra, yen, shallow, machismo, scorner and shnitzel.
		Shortly before Rosh Hashanah last year I wrote the following to a friend:
