Talk:Drachenfutter

I am German and I have never heard or seen this word in my entire life. The most important German dictionary (Duden) does not know it, either. In Wikipedia, there is a link to a German and Swiss movie with that name from 1987 - https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Drachenfutter_(Film) - so it might be either old-fashioned or a south German / Swiss regional dialect. --80.253.212.75 07:38, 27 June 2017 (UTC)

It's quite easy to find on Google Books, but it doesn't look like a very widespread term. ←₰-→ Lingo ^Bingo _Dingo (talk) 11:41, 26 March 2018 (UTC)

I can't find very many other uses in English, and they're all uppercase, and most of them are italicized (indicating that they're just the German word, which is itself uncommon). - -sche (discuss) 19:38, 23 March 2018 (UTC)

not cited. Those cites are both upper case. It is possible, if you find another that is not italicized, that we could move the entry to one with a capital D. Kiwima (talk) 05:16, 24 March 2018 (UTC)

There's probably at least one unitalicized uppercase-D citation (in English) on Google Books, although I don't have the time at the moment to wade through the chaff of italicized citations to find it. - -sche (discuss) 07:17, 24 March 2018 (UTC)

Ok, I have added an unitalicized citation to the mix. The capitalized version is now cited. Kiwima (talk) 19:31, 24 March 2018 (UTC)
