3) [line 13] HA'CHOLEV - one who milks an animal
4) [line 14] HA'MECHABETZ - one who curdles milk [(O.F. matons) masses/curds] (RASHI); alt., one who separates the curds from the whey (the watery part of the milk which is left after the curds have formed and separated) [(O.F. jonchieres) a reed utensil used in preparing cheese] (RASHI Shabbos 95a)

10) [line 3] EIN DAM MEVATEL DAM (MIN B'MINO EINO BATEL)
(a) When a forbidden object is mixed with a permitted object, the mixture becomes prohibited if most of the mixture is Isur, but is permitted if most of the mixture is Heter because of "Bitul b'Rov."
(b) The above applies when unidentical substances are mixed together. However, when a liquid mixes with an identical liquid, the Tana'im argue as to the status of the mixture. According to Rabanan, the Isur can still be nullified by a majority of Heter. According to Rebbi Yehudah, though, even a miniscule amount of Isur prohibits the mixture, since the Isur is not nullified at all. (When two identical *dry* substances become mixed together, all agree that the majority in the mixture determines the mixture's Halachic status.)
(c) Similarly, if the blood of Kodshim that must be cast on the Mizbe'ach mixes with blood that is unfit to be cast on the Mizbe'ach (e.g. Dam ha'Tamtzis), the Rabanan of Rebbi Yehudah rule that we follow the Rov (majority). If most of the mixture is Dam ha'Tamtzis, it is not fit for Zerikah. According to Rebbi Yehudah, we do not follow the Rov, and even if there is a miniscule amount of blood that is fit for Zerikah, Zerikah may be performed.
