Si uno dice: "Una ofrenda", "Una ofrenda quemada", "Una ofrenda de comida", "Una ofrenda por el pecado", "Una ofrenda de agradecimiento", "Una ofrenda de paz" (será) lo que como de ti, está prohibido (comer de él). [Todas estas ofrendas son obligatorias (y una ofrenda de agradecimiento también es como obligatoria, porque "Cuatro deben dar gracias, etc.") de modo que (si no se nos informa de otra manera) podríamos pensar que esto no es llamado "jurar con respecto a lo que se jura".] R. Yehudah lo permite. [Dado que lo dice sin un "chaf" ("Como una ofrenda por el pecado, etc."), es como jurar por la vida del ofrenda y por la vida de la ofrenda quemada, para que ni el voto ni el juramento se obtengan. La primera parte de la Mishná nos informa que la primera tanna difiere con R. Yehudah incluso con respecto a "Jerusalén" si la menciona sin un chaf , sosteniéndolo como un voto. Y la segunda parte nos informa que R. Yehudah difiere con la primera tanna incluso con respecto a "ofrenda", "holocausto" y "ofrenda de comida, etc." cuando los menciona sin una irritación, sosteniéndolos para que no sean votos.] "La ofrenda", "Como la ofrenda", "Una ofrenda" que no comeré de ti—Está prohibido. [A pesar de que todo esto ya se mencionó, "La ofrenda" es necesaria; porque podríamos pensar que él pretende así "Por la vida de la ofrenda" (es decir, un juramento), En cuanto a nuestro aprendizaje (2: 2): "'La ofrenda que no como de ti'— está permitido ", en ese caso dice:" Esta ofrenda ", que connota" Por la vida de la ofrenda "]" Lekorban que no como de ti ", R. Meir lo prohíbe. [Porque se interpreta como "Lekorban yeheh" ("Sea como una ofrenda"), por lo que no comeré de ti. La halajá no está de acuerdo con R. Meir.] Si alguien le dice a su vecino: "konam mi boca que habla contigo "," mi mano que hace contigo "," mi pie que camina contigo ", está prohibido. [Aunque los votos no" toman "algo intangible, y el habla es intangible, aún cuando dice: "Konam, mi boca que habla contigo", él impide que la boca hable, y la boca es tangible. Del mismo modo, deja que mis manos no puedan hacerlo, y mis pies caminen, y cosas así.]
Bartenura on Mishnah Nedarim
האומר קרבן עולה מנחה חטאת תודה ושלמים – all of hese are obligatory sacrifices, and the thanksgiving-offering also is similar to an obligation, for four require givng thanks, but you might think I would say that this one takes a vow in something that is the legitimate subject of a vow.

English Explanation of Mishnah Nedarim
Introduction
The first three sections of this mishnah teach that instead of stating “korban” a person can name different types of sacrifices and his vow will still be effective.
The final section of the mishnah teaches that a person can make parts of his body forbidden to other people.

Bartenura on Mishnah Nedarim
ורבי יהודה מתיר – because they were said without the "כ"/KAF they are compared to someone who took an oath regarding the life of the burnt offering, and thee isn’t here either a vow nor an oath. But the first clause [of the Mishnah] teaches us that the first Tanna/teacher disputes that of Rabbi Yehuda, even regarding Jerusalem if he mentioned it without the "כ"/KAF and stated that it is a vow. But the concluding clause [of the Mishnah] comes to inform us that Rabbi Yehuda disputes that [opinion] of the first Tanna/Teacher, even with a sacrifice of a burnt-offering, etc., when he mentioned them without a "כ" /KAF – for it is not a vow.

English Explanation of Mishnah Nedarim
If one says “A korban”, “A wholly burnt-offering”, “A meal-offering”, “A sin-offering”, “A thanksgiving-offering”, “A peace-offering, should be that which I eat from you” he is bound [by his vow]. Rabbi Judah permitted [him]. In this section, instead of just stating “korban”, the person vowing names other types of sacrifices. The mishnah teaches that these are equally effective in forming vows. Rabbi Judah holds that since he didn’t say “like a …”, the vow is not valid.

קרבן הקרבו כקרבן שאוכל לך אסור (May what I eat of yours be the Korban” “like the Korban,” [By] a Korban [do I vow] be what I eat with you, he is bound) – even though we we heard all of them already, “the KORBAN” is required for it, for you might I would say that he says, “By the life of the KORBAN.” But surely it is taught in the Mishnah further on in Chapter 2 [Mishnah 2], “Korban” be what I eat with you,” he is not bound, there it is speaking of a KORBAN/sacrifice, which implies the life of the Korban.

[If he says] “The korban”, “like a korban”, “korban”, should be that which I eat from you he is bound [by his vow]. All of these ways of phrasing a vow are also valid.

Bartenura on Mishnah Nedarim
לקרבן אל אוכל לך רבי מאיר אוסר (for a KORBAN shall be what I eat with you) – that it is made like saying, “it shall be like a sacrifice,” therefore, I will not eat with you. But the Halakha is not according to Rabbi Meir.

English Explanation of Mishnah Nedarim
If he says, “That which I shall not eat of yours should be a korban”, Rabbi Meir forbids [him]. In this case the person adds an additional negative to his statement. Instead of saying “that which I eat from you should be a korban”, he says “that which I shall not eat…”. Hence we might have interpreted the vow to meant that that which he doesn’t eat should be a korban, but that which he does eat should be permissible. Nevertheless Rabbi Meir rules that it is a valid vow, for the statement could also be interpreted to mean, “Your food is a korban to me, therefore I shall not eat from yours.”

Bartenura on Mishnah Nedarim
קונם פי מדבר עמך – but even though that the vows do not take effect on a matter lacking substance, and speech has no substance in it, nevertheless, when he says, “KONAM be my mouth with speaks to you,” he prohibits his mouth from speaking, and his mouth spoke something that has substance. And similarly, “my hands be forbidden from their actions,” and/or “my feet from their walking,” and all similar things to this.

English Explanation of Mishnah Nedarim
If one says to his fellow, “Konam be my mouth which speaks with you”, “My hands which work for you” [or] “My feet which walk with you,’ he is forbidden. In these cases instead of stating that a certain object shall be prohibited, the person states that a certain part of his body shall not do something for his friend. Now usually one cannot make a prohibitive vow on an action. Prohibitive vows are only effective on things and not on intangibles. However, a person can make a prohibitive vow on a part of his body, since parts of bodies are things. For instance one can say “Konam be my mouth to you”, but not “Konam be my speech to you”; mouths have substance but speech does not.
