Nonsense. The "um" in that sentence is wrong, by the way.
OP Lyzko9bda5804d1f
Slang is by its very nature sloppy (salopp), and so from one German bilingual native to another, I often use "wrong" structure in laziness or haste!
salopp
In French that means slut or prostitute.

Yeah, that's right. Go figure.

Salopp in French vs. the same word used in German! False friends. Are you thick?

Yes is the answer

Or more likely just playing psychology.
Are you thick?
No,are you?Your lack of knowledge of French suggests that you are.
As far as I can see that word in German means slut.

....maybe it once was a french word meaning salopp...but in german it has a totally different meaning!
Salopp really means slut in french??? I am awed! 😮
To put it bluntly / frankly: Best used when the informal statement is direct or slightly harsh.
To put it casually / informally: Best used when you are just speaking in a relaxed, everyday tone.
Simply put: Good for when you are shortening a complex idea
.Examples in Context "Das Projekt war ihr, salopp gesagt, egal."→ "The project was, to put it bluntly, of no concern to her.""Es ist, salopp gesagt, blöd gelaufen."→ "It was, to put it crudely, a total mess-up.

Well, at least B.B. understands what I meant, being as German is our first language.

It's called Elite Failure, when those in decision making positions are simply not up to the job (and don't want to or can't admit that).
The German political establishment made some of the stupidest political decisions of the 21st century and can't back down on any of them.
So voters vote against them. Simple as.
What political party is in favor of restarting nuclear power (which Germany seems irrationally afraid of)?

Right on and her name is Angelika Merkel:-)
her name is Angelika Merkel:
Had she stepped down in 2014 she would be remembered as a great leader. Knowing win to quit is key.
Now her name is synonymous with German decline and failure.

I came to that conclusion awhile ago....based on their demographics the "big cities" will turn left radical whereas all the lands around them will turn right! Think muslim left Mamdani in New York...
Its the big cities the foreigner and the miffed small town fortune seeking crowds gather...in Berlin especially the Left promised voting even for non-citizens and no deportations, with a huge chunk of antisemit, pro-islamist terror supporters...of course they will vote for the Left.
But....as horrible that is for me as a Berliner, it is no real, country-wide movement...nowhere else are even nearly similiar demographics, so the Left is confined to Berlin (and one or two other big cities).
Just watch future elections in our western countries, be it France or Britain, of course the US...you will see the same outcomes!
In the end...as long as I have the choice to move to Brandenburg if I want to, I can live with it. A conservative country with one or two left cities is manageble, better than the other way around! :)

This isn't about a conservative country. This is about the rebirth of fascism in its worst form. 😱
