You’re in a thread complaining about a software using a German name for it’s German meaning. Your example for a ‘good German name’ is an English word that has German origins.

Uber is a loan word. Doesn’t matter how your perceive it, that doesn’t make it a more German. So is iceberg.

You’re in a thread complaining about a software using a German name for it’s German meaning (Flohmarkt means flea market). Your example for a ‘good German name’ is an English word that has German origins. Don’t you see how those are different?

‘uber’ is an English word with a German ethnology. ‘über’ is a German word. That’s like saying iceberg is German. u and ü are different letters. They are pronounced differently and change the meaning of words (e.g. ‘Schuppe’ means scale, ‘Schüppe’ means shovel)

über? which you’d spell ueber, if you can’t type ü

Like eBay, Facebook, Twitter, Amazon?

Which is also reasonably close to the German pronunciation (which is something like Flo-marked to an English speaker)

Uber isn’t a German word tho?

There’s a typo in the title

Now I want F-Druid to be a thing
