From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia.
A Schnorrer or shnorrer (SHNORer, n.) is a Yiddish term meaning beggar or sponger.
The term is not considered a slur or insult, rather it is often used as a compliment amoung jews.
The Anglish usage denotes a sly chisler who will get money out of you anyway he can.
Groucho Marx, in his movies, often assumed the role of a shnorrer.
