Just switch to German, I know it's die Geschirrspülmaschine

[-] Diplomjodler3@lemmy.world 30 points 1 week ago

Das ist die Waschmaschine! Setzen, sechs!

[-] ladicius@lemmy.world 19 points 1 week ago

Die, Bart, die! Herrgott nochmal!

[-] ShaggySnacks@lemmy.myserv.one 5 points 1 week ago

Did you just say The, Bart, The?

[-] Redredme@lemmy.world 3 points 1 week ago

Rustig, rustig. Het is nog geen augustus en we zijn nog niet in Zeeland.

Not knowing any German I can't tell the difference between this being correct or your putting down "the water sloshing noise machine" with a German accent.

(but for those curious scrollers it’s dishes sink machine)

[-] example@reddthat.com 9 points 1 week ago

it's more of a dishes washing machine.

while Spüle is sink, Geschirr spülen is washing dishes. spül is not a noun in this case.

Germans: German is such a beautiful language!

German:

[-] SpaceNoodle@lemmy.world 21 points 1 week ago

It's beautiful in its precision and how it constantly clears your throat

Grachtengordel.

[-] CaptainBlagbird@lemmy.world 4 points 1 week ago

Or Swiss German. Chuchichäschtli.

[-] pedz@lemmy.ca 5 points 1 week ago

Ok then. What's the gender of Nutella?

[-] SpaceNoodle@lemmy.world 2 points 1 week ago

That wasn't covered in German class

[-] KSPAtlas@sopuli.xyz 1 points 1 week ago

Clearly it's dieras Nutella

That's right it's das Kleidungumnassengerät

[-] SpaceNoodle@lemmy.world 1 points 1 week ago

It's a machine that washes, close enough

[-] pumpkinseedoil@mander.xyz 3 points 1 week ago

At least in my part of Austria it's usually „der Geschirrspüler“

[-] SpaceNoodle@lemmy.world 1 points 1 week ago

Well yeah that's a different word

[-] pumpkinseedoil@mander.xyz 1 points 1 week ago

Yes, I didn't mean to imply that the other word wasn't correct, just pointed it out because it means the exact same thing can be either male or female depending on which word you use.
