I had to look it up. For everyone else that needs to: "croak" is also a slang term for dying.

Wow I thought that was pretty universal slang! If you don't mind me asking, where are you from?

[–] tobogganablaze@lemmus.org 10 points 6 months ago (1 children)

Germany, so 2nd language.

Ahh that'll do it!

What kind of fun slang for death do you have over there?

[–] tobogganablaze@lemmus.org 5 points 6 months ago (1 children)

As I said, I'm German. We don't do funny slang. Death is not something to be joked about.

Seriously though, all I could think of were english expressiosn, being 6 feet under, sleeping with the daises, sleeping with the fishes ... all the funny expressions are in English.

I'm a terrible German.

Abnippeln, ins Gras beißen, die Löffel abgeben
