Maybe as long as harlot?
- 082349872349872 2y agofrom en.wikipedia: The name "Huliaipole" (lit. 'walk-about field') reflected the nature of the area where it was founded, which had frequently played host to fairs for a long time before the settlement's foundation. Nu, even english folk songs detail the sorts of activities people get up to at fairs... Yeah, harlot arguably fits very well; its original sense having been "vagabond". I first encountered black, white, and red in a schoolyard joke: Q. What's black, white, and red all over — and can't fit through doorways? A. A nun with a spear through her head and I guess the civil war would be the next black[0], white[1], and red but currently I prefer the chorus: Девушки бывают разные Чёрные, белые, красные.

(pity about the burning of the Jolly Roger flag in Huliaipole, even if Makhno said that one was a fake flag) [1] the b/w portion, at least, seems to cover Wrangel's retreat from Sevastopol: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i_gm5P7R_fQ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i_gm5P7R_fQ
- gradschoolfail 2y agoRegarding uh the dearth of prison slang in your part of teutonia: i’d blame autarky (no underclass?) & repression (see https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kiberer#Trivia https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kiberer#Trivia) Jenisch & Rotwelsch, any trace? we had this convo earlier? Gold the precious colour of liberalism? (& of commerce and markets?) should work very well for the kray (UA/RU) (Surely it would come after red in any hierarchy) Return to usual programming soon :)
- 082349872349872 2y agono trace of Jenisch in my sociolect, and almost no Rotwelsch, with the exceptions of: Bock haben, der Bulle (both in my active vocabulary) and die Musch (only know through cabaret songs: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xD2i8Ix9Md8 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xD2i8Ix9Md8 ) see also https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polari https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polari , https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mattenenglisch https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mattenenglisch EDIT: come to think of it, I often see Roma in their encampments, but I'm pretty sure they pass through with even less interaction than the tourists (and both they and we prefer it that way).
