Probably, this Zimt is cinnamon, Ohrli is swiss German dialect for ear.
- jo-m 3y agoÖhrli actually. It maddens me to no end that they pick words which contain umlauts and then leave them out.
- kopadudl 3y agoOn the one hand it makes it easier for non-umlaut people and it makes their names unique, when googling for zopfli und brotli it pointed me to the github repos very quick.
- b3orn 3y agoÖhrli is actually the swiss german diminutive of Ohr (ear). Swiss german uses -li a lot for diminutives, whereas standard german uses -chen or -lein, the vowel of them stem is turned into an umlaut Ohr -> Öhrli/Öhrchen/Öhrlein.
