Universally known Hebrew/Yiddish loan-words
“Universally known” means general English, not Orthodox Jewish English: a newspaper reader who is not Jewish would still recognize the word.

Not universal
These are still Latin in the glossary, but they are Jewish English, not general loan-words: shul, bentch, daven, milchigs, fleishigs, Shabbos, Chumash, Gemora, posuk, korban, parsha, tallis, tefillin, tzitzis, brocho, minyan, chumrahs, gebrokts, and most other yeshivish/liturgical lemmas.
Not in this book
English also has Yiddish loans that do not appear in the questions: chutzpah, bagel, mensch, schlep, klutz, nosh, kvetch, spiel, yarmulke, challah, lox, kibitz, maven, and similar.

Only the first table belongs in Latin because they are English. Everything else that is still Latin is a name, a holiday label kept Latin on purpose, or Jewish English—not a general loan-word.
