Wszystkie [łodygi owoców], które służą jako uchwyty do jedzenia, te, które są uważane za powiązane ze względu na [bycie dotkniętym] przez Pochodzenie nieczystości, są [również] uważane za powiązane w odniesieniu do tevul yom [tego, który zanurzył się tego dnia w mykwie , ale kto musi czekać do zapadnięcia nocy, aby stać się w pełni czysty, i do tego czasu jest nieczystością drugiego stopnia]. Pożywienie, które zostało pokrojone, ale jest przymocowane małą częścią, rabin Meir mówi: jeśli ktoś trzyma większą część, a mniejsza część z nią wyjdzie, jest przez to do niej podobna [tj. I jest uważana za związaną z nią ze względu na nieczystość] . Rabin Jehuda powiada: jeśli ktoś trzyma mniejszą część, a większa część ją wymyśla, jest przez to podobny. Rabin Nechemia mówi: [ta zasada ma zastosowanie] w odniesieniu do czystej części [tj. Jeśli ktoś trzyma część, która nie została dotknięta przez tevul yom , wszystko, co się z nią stanie, jest uważane za związane]. A Mędrcy mówią: [ta zasada ma zastosowanie] odnośnie części nieczystej. A jeśli chodzi o wszystkie inne pokarmy, te zwykle trzymane przez liść powinny być trzymane przez liść, a [te zwykle trzymane] za łodygę powinny być trzymane za łodygę [a jeśli pokarm nie spada, uważa się, że jest połączony].
Bartenura on Mishnah Tevul Yom
כל ידות האוכלים (all [stalks serving as] handles for produce) – the stalks that the food is hung/suspended on them, when they want to suspend them, and a person holds it when he wants to eat the fruit/produce.

English Explanation of Mishnah Tevul Yom
Handles to food, which count as connectives when touched by a "father of uncleanness," also count as connectives when touched by a tevul yom. The mishnah refers here to food that is picked up by using a "handle," a piece of the food. We will explain this more when we learn Tractate Oktzin 1:3. If this part is touched by a "father of uncleanness" the entire piece of food is defiled. Similarly, if the food was touched by a tevul yom, the entire thing is defiled.

שהם חיבור באב הטומאה (and it is deemed connected by a primary source of ritual uncleanness) – that if the primary source of ritual uncleanness/defilement touched the fruit/produce itself.

English Explanation of Mishnah Tevul Yom
If a food was divided into two yet a small part was still attached: Rabbi Meir says: if one takes hold of the larger part and the smaller part is pulled away with it, behold it is like it. Rabbi Judah says: if one takes hold of the smaller part and the greater is also pulled away with it, then behold it is like it. The mishnah now begins to discuss pieces of food that have been broken into two, and yet are still slightly connected. The question is if one touches part of the disconnected piece, is the entire thing defiled? Rabbi Meir says that for the two parts to be connected all that must occur is that the smaller part would be picked up with the larger part. This would mean that it would be quite to consider the two parts connected. Rabbi Judah rules more leniently. Unless the larger part can be lifted with the smaller part, then the two are not considered connected.

English Explanation of Mishnah Tevul Yom
Rabbi Nehemiah says: [this refers] to the case of the clean portion. But the sages say: [it refers] to the unclean portion. Rabbi Nehemiah and the sages say that it doesn't matter which part is large or small, what matters is which part was pure and which part was impure. According to Rabbi Nehemiah, we examine the part not touched by the tevul yom. If a person picks up the pure part and the impure part that was touched by the tevul yom comes up with it, it is considered connected. . According to the sages, we examine the part that was touched by the tevul yom. If when one picks up the impure part the pure part comes up with it, then it too is impure.

שנפרס (that is broken off/divided) – the language of a piece/half. But there are those who have the reading שנפרם/that it is torn open/exposed. It is the language of (Leviticus 21;10): “or rend his vestments.”

English Explanation of Mishnah Tevul Yom
In the case of all other foods, those usually held by the leaf should be taken by the leaf, and those usually held by the stalk should be taken by the stalk. For other types of food, such as vegetables and fruit, the test is performed by holding the part usually held. If the vegetable/fruit is usually held by the leaf then if he picks it up by the leaf and the vegetable/fruit is lifted up as well, then it is all connected. The same is true if the fruit is usually held by the stalk.
אם אוחז בגדול – the large piece, and the small piece goes up with it and is not broken off from everything.
