The interesting thing is that the weird 'else' keyword actually was invented by German speakers: https://github.com/e-n-f/if-then-else/blob/master/if-then-else

- eru 2y agoVery interesting write-up at your link! The early English alternatives were even longer than the common German suggestions we have here. Btw, 'sonstwenn' seems really silly. 'ansonsten' or just 'sonst' might be more idiomatic. Hmm, the actual code uses 'anderenfalls', which also works, but is a bit longer than 'sonst'.
