1. ugh
  2. Yes, all Bernese say "äuä" and yes, you know the word too, but nobody who didn't grow up in Bern really masters all forms of the everyday word.

  3. Hurti
  4. Even if the people of Bern are considered slow, sometimes we «hurti» have to do something. That will be done quickly.

  5. Ablaschele
  6. The word "parasite" sounds a little less decent.

  7. Ackegstabil
  8. If you're a little drunk, the word looks almost similar to its origin, "rigid neck".

  9. Bangle
  10. Not to be confused with going to the bank in Basel. With the "bänggle" you throw something somewhere with full force, for example a "Chnebu".

  11. buttele
  12. Is not Anglicism, but the Bernese word for "weigh".

  13. clack
  14. You know that annoying, tiny, tiny wound in the corner of your mouth? Please, here you have the floor.

  15. Dussel
  16. Bern German makes a lot of things just sound sweeter. That's why "sneak" becomes "düssele".

  17. Guests
  18. You can't close your drawer because of all the scarves? Voilà, there is a «Gstungg» in there.

  19. gutters
  20. Drinking bottle. Finished.

  21. Himugüegeli
  22. The absolutely cutest Bern German word describes the ladybug.

  23. hootsch
  24. Sitting around in your favorite pajamas all day on a Sunday morning with a hangover? Your roommate in Bern will now refer to you as "Hootsch"

  25. moody
  26. Hangover, not the one after too much alcohol, but a male cat.

  27. murggu
  28. That polarizes. Some like it, some don't. The language is from the cutting of the bread.

  29. Poteterli
  30. lighter. Quote from my mum: "Yes, it works, but it doesn't work - Peut-être - Pöteterli."

  31. Rossnegu
  32. Also better known in the rest of Switzerland as tadpoles.

  33. Stupid
  34. Has less to do with snails than browsing through shops - at a snail's pace.

  35. Tschugger
  36. We only become Bernese quickly when the «Tschugger» come around the corner and something illegal has been done.

  37. «Two», «Two» and «Twoi»
  38. Two is too boring for us. We distinguish between "two men", "two froue" and "two Ching".

  39. Aa-Be
  40. So that even the little ones already know how to ask for the toilet, we dedicate the first letters of the alphabet to the bathroom and call it "Aa-Be".

  41. fashion
  42. Where others argue about "Butter" or "Anke", we simply put a "Mödeli" on the table in the morning.

  43. Corridors
  44. No, when you go "Gänggele" you don't hang around with your gang, you go to the kiosk to buy a few "Hubba Bubbas".

  45. boss
  46. If the Bernese have something up their sleeves, they are always a bit on the "bosse".

  47. Chafli
  48. Even if «Chafli» is reminiscent of coffee, it is not very advisable on a date. A «Chafli» always has to touch everything, to the chagrin of everyone.

  49. Chatzehaglete
  50. Fortunately, it cannot be translated literally, but it still means bad weather.

  51. snooty
  52. If your partner is a "fegnäscht" it will be wild in bed - unfortunately not necessarily in a positive sense.

  53. Bubbles
  54. Everyone has probably done it before and was forbidden by mom: playing with candles.

  55. Fynöggeli
  56. Honestly, a "Fynöggeli" is sometimes just a "Mimoesli" and is so too delicate and dainty.

  57. Gäggelizuüg
  58. This is how we call all the odds and ends that are out there.

  59. Hinech
  60. If you have "hinech" a date, you have to get ready for tonight.

"Dravens Tales from the Crypt" has been enchanting for over 15 years with a tasteless mixture of humor, serious journalism - for current events and unbalanced reporting in the press politics - and zombies, garnished with lots of art, entertainment and punk rock. Draven has turned his hobby into a popular brand that cannot be classified.

My blog was never designed to spread news, let alone get political, but with current affairs I just can't help but capture information here that is otherwise censored on all other channels. I am aware that the design page may not seem "serious" to many in this regard, but I will not change this to please the "mainstream". Anyone who is open to non-state-compliant information sees the content and not the packaging. I've tried enough to provide people with information over the last 2 years, but quickly noticed that it never matters how it's "packaged", but what the other person's attitude towards it is. I don't want to put honey on anyone's mouth to meet expectations in any way, so I'll keep this design because hopefully at some point I'll be able to stop making these political statements, because it's not my goal to go on like this forever ;) I leave it up to everyone how they deal with it. However, you are welcome to simply copy and distribute the content, my blog has always been under the WTFPL license.

It's hard for me to describe what I'm actually doing here, DravensTales has become a culture blog, music blog, shock blog, tech blog, horror blog, fun blog, a blog about found items on the internet, internet bizarre, trash blog, art blog, water heater, zeitgeist blog over the years , Scrap blog and grab bag blog called. Everything that is right ... - and yet not. The main focus of the blog is contemporary art, in the broadest sense of the word.
