I just updated my answer with more examples but I think you are right with the nickname thing

I mean it only works with nouns that are not ending on vowels and also not every noun works good. But I heard this from people all over Germany. Mostly in a mocking way, like someone was eating too much and complaining about stomach pain:
"Oh, tut dir der Bauchi weh?"

Other commonly used examples I can think of:

  • Lurch - Lurchi (amphibian)
  • Frisch - Froschi (frog)
  • Hund - Hundi (dog)
  • Mutter/Vater/Oma/Opa - Mutti/Vati/Omi/Opi (mom, dad, grandma, grandpa)

In German this literally translates to something like "cute sand man". Because in German you can just add an " I" at the end of any noun to make it sound cute and small. So "Sandi" can be thought of as a kind of diminutive of the noun "Sand", similar to "Bauchi" from "Bauch" which is stomach. The correct dimunitve of "Bauch" would be "Bäuchlein" but this refers more to the perceived size of the object.

Is alloromantic the opposite of aromantic? I tried to understand this by reading online definitions but am not sure at all.

 

Hi guys, I want to give something back (in terms of money) to FOSS projects/devs/teams. There are lots of options like LibrePay, direct donation via PayPal, Crypto and so on.

So here is my question: is there anything you would recommend? I think I want something like this:

  • Low transaction costs
  • Payment works from inside the EU (European Union)
  • Donating to a certain project or a "pool" of projects

But I am also open to any further ideas and discussion :)
