Best Answer

Nebbish is an American word, not a Hebrew or Yiddish one. They pronounce it that way because of the difficulty in enunciating the "kh" sound. The original word is "nebbikh", a Yiddish word meaning "pitiable"; originating in the Hebrew "navokh" which means confused. I don't think the Yiddish colloquialism has a female counterpart.
