Why when Germans are speaking English they'll speak English entirely correctly and not use any German but when it comes to fries/chips they say pommes? Why just for that one word do you Germans switch to German?
Also why do Germans have trouble with the word since and use the word "handy" for mobile phones?
It's complicated
because germans are colossal fags
this is a pomme, op's pic is a pomme de terre and first of all it is a frite
germans if you're gonna borrow our words at least do it right thank you

You have to admit that handy is a better description than mobile phone. When was the last time you made a phone call with that thing?

We call them pommes because you cab't decide how you want to name them

Just pick one of the two English words. it's not hard.
Also a handy is a handjob
>>53353981
It's "Pommes", "Fritten" or "Pommes frites".
>Handy
Because those were not really "handy" back then...

>pomme de terre
A Kartoffel (potato) is also called Erdapfel (Soil-apple, pomme de terre) in low-german...
