No, it doesn't. "Taharas hamishpacha" means "purity of the family." "Mishpachas" is a combining form (I think that the grammarians call it "construct). Standing alone, I don't think that there is such a thing as a "mishpakas."

This is probably the point that usuario was making.

What was all that drama about anyways? Because I put an "s" at the end of the word hamishpaka? I think that drama was personal, not about linguistics. Oh well, you can't please everybody.

You really want to rehash all your phonetic mis-spellings in the Yeshivish you used years ago? It was basically Yiddish/Hebrew Ebonics and there were two of us re-typing what you typed into understandable words.
