Vincent: And you know what they call a... a... a Noob in Paris?
Jules: They don't call him a Noob?
Vincent: No man, they got a different language. They wouldn't know what the gently caress a Noob is.
Jules: Then what do they call them?
Vincent: They call 'em un debutant.
Jules: [savoring the language] A debutant. And how do they say "teh"?
VINCENT becomes visibly agitated and shoots JULES in the head.

The German masculine article "der" becomes "Erd" which means Earth as in "Erdapfel" meaning "potato" but literally meaning "earthapple." Only in bavaria or austria though I forget which one.

You can also misspell "der" as "dre." I bet you all forgot about that.

When I moved to Germany, I didn't immediately understand the word "nene." It wasn't in any dictionary, and Germans used it constantly in text messages.
