Those of you who are regular followers have probably noticed that there are a lot of technical terms in Russian that have German roots. Well, here's another one of them: кабель (kabel), which is exactly the same as the German Kabel (cable, wire).

Word of the Week: LÆKKERBISKEN

Word of the Week is back after an eventful summer that yielded lots of inspiration for this blog. Unfortunately, inspiration alone is not enough to make a post, so you will have to bear with me a little longer if you are interested in the German words I discovered in the Baltic countries, among others.

This week, just a little choice morsel - that's what Leckerbissen means in German. In Danish, it is used as lækkerbisken (and usually for food, mind you, just like in German).
