    German question

    I know there is at least one German speaker on these boards, so I ask this...

    Other than being a really funky Guano Apes tune, does the term "Dödel Up" translate as anything in English?

    As always, thanks in advance

    Dö-del [n]1. very informal for penis 2. insulting term for males.

    Both forms aren't used very often.

    You're welcome.

    Agreed, some of their songs are pretty good.

    So what's German for "lesbians"?
    Anyhoo, just some random thoughts...

    How cool is that, that we have natural speakers of so many differnt languages on our boards

    Thanks Ergi, for covering that question, I sort of ducked it
