What is a Yeshiva?

A yeshiva is a Jewish school.

So, the joke part is that her English vocabulary (see: relations) is too deeply influenced by how we learn to translate words in Hebrew to English. In Yeshiva, they'd never translate "had sex" as "had sex" but "had relations."

But she said it jokingly. :)
