When asking my bobby or her "cronies" how they are doing they'd say "nimer arger, imer besser"

The phrase I heard a lot was “noch nimer arger”. It means it should never be worse.
( Nimer is really two words, ni mehr.)

My in laws family speaks the real deal yiddish and they used words I never heard of. When mentioned here it started bringing back memories of way back when I got married. Words like-
Yinga tzveebel
Gedeensta tzeebel
Groilik
Showderlach( sils favorite word)
Eech shoyn zee
And many more. Keep em coming

These are just regular Yiddish words/ phrases.

But with all due respect, the grammar is off on one LOL

(The last one)

Eta, I I do say scallions, not יונגע צוויבל. But גרויליג, שוידערלעך & געדינסטע צוויבל are just regular everyday words. Ok, גרויליג is a pretty strong word, so no, I don’t have a need to say it every day LOL

and hopefully nothing שוידערלעך happens daily, because that would just be terrible.

Groilig is an everyday word for me. Wonder what that says about me.

I agree with you that is gadeensta. For the person who said it means maid, yeah it's spelled the same way.

Also how would you say the verb, for example you have to deenst the onion?

I don't understand who doesn't say these phrases? It wouldn't make me think I do or do not know anyone since everyone speaks like that.

Lubvaitcher Yiddish we use brillin not gleizer.
If you say gleizer we’d think your talking about (glass) cups.

Fablundjent/farleerin.
