Dag Denis, Luc en de rest,

Er is ook een andere vorm van dit woord, "loebas", dat net als "lobbes"
betekent: groot, plomp dier, goeiige hond enz.  Qua klank is dit misschien
beïnvloed door "doerak"? Dat van oorsprong Russisch leenwoord wordt (werd)
vaak als naam
voor een hond gebruikt, daarnaast betekent het "deugniet".

Het woord "lobbig" bestaat ook, dat wil zeggen wijd, ruimzittend,
onelegant, van kleding.

There's also another form of this word, "loebas", just as "lobbes" it means
a big, clumsy animal, a good-natured dog etc
In sound it may be influenced by "doerak"? That originally Russian loan is
(was) often used as a dog's name, it also means rascal.

There's also a word "lobbig", it means wide, large, inelegant, of clothes.

Groet,
Ingmar

Beste Denis,

In dutch " een goeie lobbes" means "a good and friendly bloke". Always
wondered which linguistic reference this one had.
