shileguu - ctjacobs - 09-20-2021

I had an account at news.individual.net. I lapsed it and it does not exist any more so I feel I can talk now freely about the password I got there. That password was shileguu. I believe that is hebrew for send it. Sounds appropiate since it allowed me to send posts. Just a coincidence? Someone joking?

It looks to be an imperative form for the verb, send. Shilchu.  It just means, Send.  

שלג Sheleg is a noun for snow, the root form of what you've written with the G,  and I don't think that would make sense in the verb form.

This definition of course is up for correction by those more familiar with Hebrew.

I think you mean שִׁלְחוּ šiləḥû ("shilchú"). This means "send!" as a command to more than one person. To add "it" to the command, it would be שִׁלְח֫וּהוּ šiləḥû́hû ("shilchúhu"), assuming that the "it" was masculine.

It's not a g but a ch sound (as in the German name Bach).
