tuches
Where you sit
Tuches is a Yiddish-derived word for the buttocks, used affectionately or humorously in American English.
It appears in various spellings including tuchis, tush, and tokhes.
The word often carries a warmer, less clinical tone than alternatives like buttocks or behind: Get your tuches off the couch and help me.
It's especially common in Jewish American households and communities but has spread into broader informal usage.
