Am i the only one annoyed that her chest is blurred out for Internet reasons, I presume? Are boos bad now too?

Edit: hah, it's her hair. I may need glasses

Why did you censor the word β€˜boobs’ by removing a letter?

You expect him to look at anything other than her boobs to figure that out? He's horny now! He doesn't have time to look at non-boob things like hair, or any other part of the image!

Funny as a german.

https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wallah_(arabisch)

Very common slang word that was introduced by arabic speakers and is now used by german youths of all background.

There is no english wikipedia for this but it translates to "by god" and is used to swear truthfulness.

Same here in Norway. Many say "wallah, jeg lover"

So basically "wallah, I promise"

This is almost entirely unrelated but I just love how Bodo Wartke can sing his Liebeslied in "Turkish German" (and unbelievable dozens of other languages).

Interesting that Spanish already has "Ojala" which means "hopefully" but also originated from arabic "Inshallah" which is more or less "if God wills it"/"I hope God allows to happen"

Is it lowkey if you make a public post about it?

[–] barooboodoo@lemmy.zip 4 points 13 hours ago (1 children)

The way younger people use lowkey is more analogous to "kind of" if that makes sense.

I prefer this version to "viola". I've seen it a few times and I always find it a bit funny if not unfortunate.

It's the simple past of violer (violate) at the 3sp, which can be used for the word rape. It's basically saying "violated" without he/she in front of it.

It’s also a stringed instrument, which always gives me a chuckle when I see that mistake

[–] Lumidaub@feddit.org 12 points 1 day ago

It's also a humble string instrument.
