MODERATORS
 

I was just thinking about this, when I'm facing an issue, the first thing I do is go to a search engine and usually there's a Reddit post. But I don't want to ask there. And the only way we're going to build up the info for folks to find us and come here is for us to just start asking here. On the Fediverse. We need to build up that mountain of knowledge that Reddit has and will always have. So we should be championing ANYONE asking questions here. Even if we think it's obvious and we think you can just Google it. There was a time where you literally couldn't just Google it. That was built over time. We need to build that here. So start asking your questions here! Find the answers and then post your answer to your own question. Or let someone do it for you. We need to build the knowledge here to be found. It's not just about people looking for alternatives. We need our knowledge to be more valuable than their knowledge.

What's the right translation for "pepper" in German? And red pepper, green pepper and so on? I found several words that seem to mean pepper, but not sure if any is better than the others.

Pepper is Pfeffer, red pepper is roter Pfeffer, green pepper is grüner Pfeffer und so weiter. Ich hoffe ich konnte ihnen helfen. Einen schönen Tag noch.

Pepper can also translate to Paprika though when talking about plants. A pepper plant is a paprika in German. Spicy peppers are chillies.
