Rabbi Yossi Turk: Bienvenidos Welcome. Un minuto , ya lo atiendo. I'll be with you in a moment...

Archie: Hi, I wanted to know, if I don't have Matzah for Pesach Sheni [Ed. note: Second Passover], can I buy some or do I need to have leftover from Pesach?

Rabbi Yossi Turk: It's a custom to eat some Matzah on this day, but you can buy some if you don't have any leftover from Pesach. And you don't need much. One matzah is enough.

Archie: Okay. So it doesn't hafta be from Pesach... Thanx.

Archie: Do u HAVE to eat matzah?

Rabbi Yossi Turk: No, it's a custom.

Archie: Okay, good.

Archie: Thank u very much!!!

Rabbi Yossi Turk: But it’s a good custom...

Archie: ;)
