shibboleth
shibboleth In English usage, a test word or opinion which gives away one's party or nationality; hence also a doctrine once regarded as essential but generally abandoned as old-fashioned. The word in Hebrew was the password demanded by
Gileadite soldiers (Judg. 12: 6) to pick out the
Ephraimite enemies who were physically unable to sound the initial consonant.
