The sense of drunkenness has been traced to the late 18ᵗʰ century, allegedly playing on the homophony of Czech opice (“monkey or ape”) and opít se (“to get drunk”), though the image of a monkey being a possessing demon is translingual, and thus Spanish mona (“she-ape”) also means drunkenness, Spanish mono (“he-ape”) withdrawal symptoms, English monkey a substance (typically, a recreational drug) addiction.

Da war er auf dem Weinfest und hat sich am Stand der lokalen Winzergenossenschaft, da gab es für Mitglieder alles umsonst, einen granatenmäßigen Affen angesoffen.

Wolfgang Pfeifer (etymologist)

From Middle High German buobe (“knave”), from Old High German Buobo, a male name of unknown meaning, though probably formed as a reduplication of a syllable *bo which may be abstracted from Proto-Germanic *brōþēr (“brother”), based on the original meaning of "male child", reinforced by sound-symbolism. Cognate with Dutch boef (“villain”). Probably also related to boy; see there for more.

de:Zibbe

First attested in the 19th century. Probably from or related to Proto-West Germanic *tibā (“bitch, female dog”), whence also Middle Low German tēve, tiffe, Middle Dutch tēve (13th c., modern Dutch teef), Old English tife.
While the 19th-century attestation is surely belated, the total lack of medieval evidence and the fact that the word is native almost exclusively in East Central German, thus outside the original Old High German territory, make its inheritedness uncertain. One alternative would be a phonetically adapted borrowing from Low German (during the time of dialect mixing in the colonial areas), plausibly under the influence of Middle High German zūpe (“bitch, doe rabbit”). Note that the unadapted form is found in northern East Central German Tiffe (“cur”) as well as Ripuarian Tiff (“bitch”, locally also “doe rabbit”).


denn

From Middle High German denne, tenne, from Old High German denna, a variant of danne (see dann). The functional split between denn and dann was prescribed only by the grammarians of the 18th century. Cognate with English then.

From Middle High German backen, from Old High German backan, an originally weak verb and geminated variant of an older strong verb: Middle High German bachen, from Old High German bahhan, from Proto-West Germanic *bakan.
The two verbs early on were blended to some degree, each developing both weak and strong forms. Bachen was originally the predominant form in Upper German. Backen prevailed in the modern standard language because it was common in Central German and also in line with Middle Low German backen (where *baken is not attested). Cognate with German Low German backen, Dutch bakken, English bake, Danish bage, Swedish baka, and also Ancient Greek φώγω (phṓgō).

(transitive or intransitive, colloquial, regional) to fry


nee

Of dialectal origin, particularly German Low German nee (“no”). Cognate to Dutch nee, English no.

(colloquial, regional) Alternative form of nein (“no”)


weg

northern and central Germany; becoming rare for this particular word

Shortened from Middle High German enwec, from Old High German in weg, corresponding to modern in + Weg. The first syllable is still seen in dialectal forms with e-; compare Luxembourgish ewech. Cognate with Dutch weg, Hunsrik wech, English away.

Wo bist du denn weg?


überall

Ich hab’s überall mit probiert, aber der Fleck geht nicht raus.

I’ve tried it with everything, but the stain won’t come out.

(colloquial, regional, chiefly northern and central Germany) forms prepositional adverbs of alles (“everything”)

Davon hab ich überall noch nie gehört.

I’ve never heard about all those things.

(colloquial, regional, chiefly northern and central Germany) is added to a prepositional adverb in order to express that the latter includes a wide variety of items


det

Gibste mir ma’ det Wasser?

(colloquial, Berlin-Brandenburg) Alternative form of das


det

Det weeß ik nich'.

From Middle High German gān, gēn, from Old High German gān, gēn, from Proto-West Germanic *gān, from Proto-Germanic *gāną, from Proto-Indo-European *ǵʰeh₁- (“to leave”).
Cognate with Dutch gaan, Low German gan, gahn, English go, Swedish and Danish gå.
The form gēn instead of gān is of Bavarian origin, but many dialects of Central and Low German have -e- (from earlier -ei-) or ei in the 2nd and 3rd person singular present, in keeping with the Proto-Germanic irregular conjugation. The -h- was introduced into the spelling by analogy with sehen, in which it had become mute but was retained in spelling.

gehn

dated in formal prose, but still common informally and poetically

Es geht auf 8 Uhr.

+obj

(regional or dated, impersonal, intransitive) to be approaching [with auf (+ accusative) ‘a specific time’]

The term originally denoted a sausage (Wurst) made of Brät (Old High German brāto), but has come to be used for a sausage that is fried or is suited to being fried (braten). Kluge suggests the modern word might be a conflation of those two etymologies rather than a derivation of only the first one.

Es gibt auch die geräucherte Bratwurst, die kalt verzehrt wird, sowie weitere Sorten.

Late 17th century, borrowed from Dutch frikadel (attested 1607), itself from French fricadel(le).

Derivation of German Frikadelle from Italian instead of Dutch (as suggested in some sources) is implausible in view of the chronology and regional distribution. Compare also Dutch frikandel.
