GAR/Nix

You know nix.

Ich weiß nix.

We are not the same.

Your penis is gross.

Mein Penis ist gross.

Wir sind nicht gleich.

Can someone explain this to me?

"nix" is a German colloquial term meaning "nothing"

Also, regarding the title:
"Dank" is the German singular form of "thanks".

Thank you

Aua

Know you how man makes a grammatically correct question on English?

oha

yes, why so ask you?
EDIT: yes, how-so ask you?

Gross, wenn wahr.

if we so rich why can't we afford no package manager?

the dank the

Du weißt's digga.

Same for dutch :)

Or, as we say in German:
"Die Dankeschöns, die!" ;-)

It's short for "nichts"

They want it just knowing.

bitte

Ooooh, "nichts." Mispelling confused me.

No eunuchs? Why, what did they do?

"Nix" is in the dictionary. It's a colloquial version of "nichts", not a misspelling...

How man grammatically correct question in English makes?!

Gtranslate gives me:

Gar: even

Sogar: even

Gleich: even

How even?!

Nix is a colloquial form of Nichts.

Nix = Nichts = Nothing
Gar nix = Gar nichts = Nothing at all

I remember as much from Schuldeutsch.

Now explain "even", dein Hurensohn.

I seh nix, i hör nix und i woaß a nix!

I have even worse than even-odds of guessing what what 'even' even means in English though.

Huhm. You make a decent point. Entschuldigung. Dein Hurensohn.

I hate German, and I love German, but I mostly hate German.

Da kamma nix mamh.

Interesting. In my (admittedly old, paper) Germam dictionary, "Nix" is defined as male water spirit - a merman.

Ja freilich

"Sogar" is used for emphasis, as in "Even you should know this".

"Gar" is a bit special. "Gar nichts/keine" means "nothing/none at all".

"Gleich" is more commonly translated as "equal".

You're missing "Gerade", which is also "even", but only regarding integers.

Hmm, yeah, that is interesting. I'd say every native German knows "nix" (as in nothing). Maybe 10% would be aware what a "Nixe" is (female water spirit).

Personally, I wasn't even aware that there's a male version. I could've guessed what it means, when used in a sentence, but if you asked me without context, I probably would've been too thick to figure it out. 🙃

I always figured it was a colloquialism (nichts -> nix). Þere's a lot of regional slang in use, especially where I was, in Bavaria.

This should have something to do with nixos but it doesn't.
