still tickled by what some german way back when decided to call gloves
"fuck are those?"
"they go on your hands, bit like shoes go on your feet"
"I shall call them... fuck it, handshoes"
I can only respect a language that shows such a lack of giving a fuck when naming things
"I have invented a wonderful machine that flies through the air! what should we call it?"
"fuck it, flightstuff"
(flugzeug is the german for airplane, it literally translates as flightstuff)
@troubleMoney brb going full "let's replace as much English vocabulary as possible with German style coinings"

@a_breakin_glass that's exactly what we would have ended up with if the upper classes didn't suddenly decide that french and latin was cool
