"Maybe baby" definitely needs to be a thing.

[–] [email protected] 18 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (1 children)

It actually is, at least in Germany you can buy pregnany tests of a brand called "Maybe-baby".

Does it also rhyme in German?

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 year ago

These aren't actually German words. It's just an anglicism for a proper noun. So yes, it does rhyme in German, but only because it's pronounced the English way.

bites tongue

I GOTTA BE 'WELL ACTUALLY GUY'. I can't help it.

A defib would actually be the Hearty Less Retardy.

Edit: And if that offends you, sorry. But it's literally accurate.

Instead of pedant maybe we can say (and I don't actually mean this as an insult)... picky pricky?

Uno, dos, meow, meow, tres, cuatro!

Pretty little kitty chased a thing she saw.

Had a pouch of catnip and a feather boa

Furry purry, furry purry.

To non-Americans they’re already “roundabouts”, which is close enough already really

I knew I couldn't be the only one who noticed the type face.

[–] [email protected] 15 points 1 year ago (1 children)

This is actually a common pattern in urdu, though not for names.

Like "chai" means tea so :

  • "chai shai" = tea and related stuff
  • "khana wana" = food and related stuff
  • "paisay waisay" = money and related stuff

etc.

I will be calling bumble bees fuzzy buzzys from now on. Thanks!

[–] [email protected] 13 points 1 year ago

I'm actually ok with all of them.

Although a group of hippos is a 'bloat', hippos don't float. Surely a floatie bloatie is a life vest!

[–] [email protected] 11 points 1 year ago

What I took away from this is that we urgently need to find the person in question and let them name everything. Alternatively the person who came up with the names in the post.

It comes from WWII soldier slang, so it's more like if US soldiers named everything.

Seeing this meme always remind me that they decided to translate "walkie talkie" in French to "talkie walkie"... I mean... Why?
