KOL HASHONEH HALACHOT BECHOL YOM MUVTACH LO SHEH'HOO BEN HA'OLAM HABA

For the Ilui Neshama of Avraham ben Ester ZT’L. Lehavdeel For the Refua Shlema of Chai Yaakov ben Margalit shlit’a.

Translated from Yalkut Yosef Kitzur Shulchan Aruch:

1. One is prohibited from speaking words of hol, words of the weekday, meaning to speak about events to do that are prohibited on Shabbat, such as "tomorrow I will do...", "tomorrow I will drive to..." "...write a letter to..." "...buy this type of merchandise for that store at..." or "the best architect for our new kitchen we need to begin building this week is..." If one only says this out loud to himself it does not make it permissible, so too if he/she speaks to others about the Shabbat-prohibited behavior that have nothing to do with what was discussed. 

2. This even stands for idle conversation that has no sense of production or that does not results in any form of productivity or output. The conversations on things that do not have to do with work or business at all should be dwindled down on Shabbat as well. And even a couple words of notoriety/shame or levity/lightmindedness are prohibited even on a regular weekday.

3. It is suggested and correct for whoever has a bit of closeness to his/her heart to Shabbat Kodesh not to speak during that time but words of Torah and related subjects. Everyday of the week we say: there will be like this and like that, but on Shabbat the Creation was over and speech was complete as well. We need to rest from the speech of the weekday as well, just like Hashem rested from everything weekday related.

SHABBAT SHALOM!
