I just asked a buddy of mine what he thinks an “Arschlöscher” is without context. His answer was a bidet. It fits too perfectly.

Now I will always call bidets ass extinguishers! So thanks for extending my vocabulary.

The keyword is digital signage display/television.

I don’t think that’s how it works. Most compound words are nouns not verbs.

Also ass is “Arsch” not “Arse”. You could say Arschlöscher, but if I heard this without context I would think of something that deletes asses.

If I would need to construct a noun that describes a bum bum that extinguishes fires I would say it should be “Löscharsch” maybe even “Feuerlöscharsch”.

These are real words in the sense that German speaker should immediately understand them but you will not find them in a dictionary. That’s what makes German different from many languages. We can make up understandable compound words on the fly.

When I was in school many notebooks came with a loose sheet to absorb the ink from our fountain pens. These are called “Löschpapier” (extinguishing paper).

A common joke was, to say you should toss the “Löschpapier” into a fire to extinguish it.

I tried it once. It burned quite well unfortunately.

I’ve seen long compound words in children’s book recently. Could be real.

Some kids get hyper fixated on cool stuff like firefighters, cars, dinosaurs,… and love learning new words in that topic even or especially if they are complicated.

Sometimes those little brains can do a lot more than many give them credit for.

The mail is pissing-water?

Well those are words descendent from Latin and Greek.

If baveria wasn’t one of the worst NIMBY hell holes in the (known by me) world.

Ehh no. Germany never had that much nuclear in its energy mix. At most it was 10-15%. Compare that to France with their around 30-40% nuclear energy in the mix.

Yea, there are 13 more

If you don’t find resource planning on an enterprise level erotic then I don’t know what’s wrong with me

Yea Microsoft doesn’t do interstates well I’ve heard

I was struggling to understand that for a long time too. It seems like it’s a mix of being told that just saying no is not polite and an aversion to conflict. Especially when stating needs.

Some parents actively discourage their children to state their needs clearly and concisely from a very very young age.

You realize that many of his novels are about how these laws fail?

Can you prove this? Or link a proof?

Then put 23456789 at the start. Doesn’t contain 22 then but all digits in base 10.

And you can strongman this by first using the string 23456789 at the start. It does contain all base 10 digits but not 22.

That’s mathematics. It do be like that sometimes. Counterexamples can be stupid but still valid.

It’s on you to prove your claims.
