[Lexicog] Kiezdeutsch

[Davide Debernardi]

Kannst du auf Deutsch sie wiederschreiben? - Sie sind sehr komisch. Was bedeutet wirklich 'Kiezdeutsch'?

Among young migrants in Germany (in Berlin) a new language is developing. The sentences of this laconic, economical sociolect sound strange and familiar at the same time. You might hear for example: “I make you hospital”, meaning “I beat you up so that you are ripe for the hospital.” I make you knife”, meaning “I attack you with a knife” or “You make red light”, meaning “You are jaywalking.”
Are there similar phenomena in your languages?
