Did Duolingo teach you what "Hurensohn" means?

[–] CNC@lemmy.sdf.org 22 points 1 year ago (1 children)

If not duolingo, then certainly this year's r/Place helped!

Yes. For everyone who missed it, "Hurensohn" ist the German word for CEO.

Just call your boss a Hurensohn tomorrow to impress them.

No, it was more for the joke but I was able to figure out roughly what it was before actually googling it to check which was nice.

THIS is how Duolingo will get my money. That's some value-add right there.

But the quebecois stuff just sounds religious. Weeeird. (I kid, I kid. I once had a sergeant mutter 'sacre bleu' to me, and I almost chuckled realizing it was an actual curse, which is the only way the day could have been made worse)
