I'm honestly surprised the author went with "nose."
Note to all: I don't participate in the forums here unless something much more important than TV Tropes content is at stake.

There was a back-and-forth about this on the YKTTW page. I ultimately went with "Nose" because a.) the trope also covers offensive/malicious depictions of Jews and "schnoz" was seen as a bit too comedic, and b.) "schnoz" is a Yiddish word, and the trope covers other Semitic groups like Arabs.

Maybe we could rename this Sizable Semitic Schnoz. Because "schnoz" is Yiddish and also for the alliteration.
