Probably
(mander.xyz)
This is straight comedic gold. I like to imagine some elderly stenographer refused to retire and this is a common occurrence... or it's some 3rd rock from the sun aliens first day.
Clearly someone who used to make custom cakes
Definitely the latter. I have a pet theory that 3rd rock is based on true events. Only an alien would be named, and physically manifested as, French Stewart.
Sandi Mann sounds like a fun woman
In German this literally translates to something like "cute sand man". Because in German you can just add an " I" at the end of any noun to make it sound cute and small. So "Sandi" can be thought of as a kind of diminutive of the noun "Sand", similar to "Bauchi" from "Bauch" which is stomach. The correct dimunitve of "Bauch" would be "Bäuchlein" but this refers more to the perceived size of the object.
That sounds really wrong. Is that a southern thing?
Yea it's definitely a dialect thing but a rather common one. I don't know where it is spoken most tho...
I mean it only works with nouns that are not ending on vowels and also not every noun works good.
But I heard this from people all over Germany. Mostly in a mocking way, like someone was eating too much and complaining about stomach pain:
"Oh, tut dir der Bauchi weh?"
Other commonly used examples I can think of:
- Lurch - Lurchi (amphibian)
- Frisch - Froschi (frog)
- Hund - Hundi (dog)
- Mutter/Vater/Oma/Opa - Mutti/Vati/Omi/Opi (mom, dad, grandma, grandpa)
I've only ever really heard it for a handful of very specific nouns, like Maus -> Mausi as an affectionate nickname
I just updated my answer with more examples but I think you are right with the nickname thing
Like 'y' in English. Dog, doggy. Sam, Sammy.
Cat, catty would like a word ;)
There are no innocent cats, that is the reason why there are no catties
By this reasoning the Saudi roysl family are chibi Sauds?
What about handi?
At first I thought that was part of the transcription too and my brain was trying to make some sense of it. And for some reason threw at me:
San..Di…Ma…s High School football rules!
Peanut Butter is one word.
That's what you get for being indecisive!
Probably
Should be a sleep therapist.
This is so on form for UCLAN.
You can't fool me Sandi! This is an experiment! Oh god this is probably a result category isn't it? My second father figure always said don't become a statistic!
runs off and falls into the flower arrangement
Almost went there myself
Nice try Flint Marko
And I thought this was going to be a joke about her putting the audience to sleep.
Itches and scratches and gets everywhere
I don't get it
"Probably" isn't supposed to be on the card
Oh right I missed that lol
They're affiliated with two universities. Their card can only list one affiliation. When the organizer asked which university to list, they said "probably University X". Most people would have simply put "University X", but since the person said "probably" the organizer decided to be literal and also put "probably".
sandi maaaan badu Du du du duuuu, sandi maaaaaan
