@hipsterelectron ah das skviertel? jaaa
@hipsterelectron @owoce "SoKo Vier-Viertel-Takt" could be German party-police for sure...
@promovicz @hipsterelectron ok ur gonna have to walk me through this one
@hipsterelectron also did u know that pokemon have localized names in German
https://www.pokewiki.de/Schiggy
@owoce @hipsterelectron i thought they do that for every language???
back in elementary school you HAD TO know both the German and the English names for 700+ pokemons in order to be one of the cool kids
@hipsterelectron i think the "schi" part is from "schildkröte" (turtle). not sure about the "iggy"
localized names are a bit of a pain but it is kinda cute to see all the word games re-worked in a different language
@owoce they work so hard!!!!!!
