серьёзный (Употребляется в сочетании "gehocte tsuris". Sometimes tsuris requires an adjective for more oomph: In an article in the National Review in 1987, D. Keith Mann said, "If I were an American mother, I'd worry more about drugs in my children's schools and drunk driving and AIDS and a million other problems, gehocte tsuris." Leo Rosten spells this phrase gehokteh tsuris, defining it as "chopped-up," although he complains, "Why troubles are worsened when chopped up, like chicken liver, I do not know, but the phrase certainly sounds authoritative."
