This isn’t hard to understand. “Burgher” is a perfectly legitimate translation of “Bürger” as in “bürgerlicher Mittagstisch”, “Der Bürger duldet nichts Unverständliches im Haus”. “Citizen” is a perfectly legitimate translation of “Bürger” when it comes to “Bürgeramt” or “Weltbürger”.
- auggierose 9mo agoWell, Bürger means citizen, and bürgerlich means middle-class. Indeed, not hard to understand.
- rubberpoliceman 9mo agoExcellent. Now do “bürgerliches Gesetzbuch”.

- auggierose 9mo agoLaw that applies only to the middle-class. Duh.
- eru 9mo agoPlease tell me you are trolling? https://de.wiktionary.org/wiki/B%C3%BCrger https://de.wiktionary.org/wiki/B%C3%BCrger says: Bedeutungen: [1a] Einwohner einer Gemeinde [1b] Angehöriger eines Staates [2] Angehöriger der Mittelschicht, des Bürgertums
