i-Dötzchen in German

IPA: /ˈiːˌdœts.çən/ Audio: De-i-Dötzchen.ogg

[Show additional information ▼] [Hide additional information ▲]

Etymology: Partial calque of Central Franconian i-Dötzje (“first-year pupil”), from the letter i, which was traditionally the first letter that school children learnt, and the noun Dotz (“little, often chubby, child”). This word’s original meaning is "knob, bump", it being probably cognate with Dutch dot, English dot. The word i-Dötzje might therefore alternatively be derived from i-Dotz meaning "dot of the i", as has been proposed; but neither is this latter sense in general use, nor does the derivation suggest itself semantically.
