German

Noun
[edit]Alman m (strong, genitive Almans, plural Almans)
- (slang, sometimes derogatory) someone with stereotypical German traits
- 2017, “Düsseldorfer”, in Jung Brutal Gutaussehend 3, performed by Kollegah and Farid Bang:
- D-D-Deutscher Rap bedeutet Fischverkäufer spielt Gewaltverbrecher / Doch dabei ist er wie Hitler, der übelste Alman ever
- G-G-German rap means fishmonger playing violent criminal / But at that he is like Hitler, the worst Alman ever
- 2018 March 27, Johann Voigt, “Das Wort „Alman“ ist nicht deutschenfeindlich”, in Jetzt[1]:
- Dass es in einem negativen Zusammenhang genutzt wird, hat seine Gründe. „Warum nutzen Kinder mit Migrationshintergrund, die eigentlich selber Almans sind, dieses Wort abwertend? Da geht es um Sachen wie Diskriminierung und Ausgrenzung. Diese Dinge führen dazu, dass sie sich andere Identitätskonzepte suchen. Eine Abwertung ist neben vielen anderen eines davon“, sagt Cihan.
- That it is used with a negative connotation has its reasons. "Why do children with a migration background, who are technically Almans themselves, use this word derogatorily? It's about things like discrimination and exclusion. These things lead to them finding different identity concepts. A devaluation is, besides many others, one of those", says Cihan.
- 2019 April 1, Daniel Gerhardt, “Gegen die Allmacht der Almans”, in Die Zeit[2]:
- Man kann sich mit dieser Platte ganz wunderbar gegen Erdoğans Türkei verbrüdern – und wenig später ertappt fühlen, wenn Hengameh (Skit) an "alle Almans und Cis-Heten" rausgeht, "die sich migrantische, nicht-weiße und queere Ästhetiken aneignen".
- With this record you can fraternize wonderfully against Erdoğan's Turkey - and feel caught shortly after, when Hengameh (Skit) calls out all "all Almans and cishets" who "appropriate migrants', non-white, and queer esthetics".
- 2019 October 8, Hengameh Yaghoobifarah, “Antira-Aktivist_innen gegen Greta”, in taz[3]:
- Wenig überraschend ist, dass Verschwörungstheoretiker sich mit ihren Tritten nach unten mit vermeintlich bürgerlichen Comedy-Almans einig sind.
- It's of no surprise that conspiracy theorist agree with their punching-down with the supposedly middle-class comical Almans.
