Unlike other applications this dreidel actually spins around!The dreidel is usually played in chanukah. Each side of the dreidel bears a letter of the Hebrew alphabet: ? (Nun), ? (Gimel), ? (Hei), ? (Shin), acronym for “?? ???? ??? ??” (Nes Gadol Haya Sham – “a great miracle happened there”). During chanukah jewish people play with the dreidel. The Yiddish word “dreydl” comes from the word “dreyen” (“to turn”). The code (based on a Yiddish version of the game) is as follows:Nun – nisht – “nothing” – nothing happens and the next player spinsGimel – gants – “all” – the player takes the entire potHey – halb – “half” – the player takes half of the pot, rounding up if there is an odd numberShin – shtel ayn – “put in” – the player puts one marker in the pot.
