Re:Germans decry influence of English as 'idiot's apostrophe... by MarkusWandel on Wednesday October 09, 2024 @02:06PM (#41790892)
It's a typical French loanword in German too: "Champagner" isn't pronounced with standard German prounciation rules. Even localized ones, e.g. in my childhood a sidewalk was called a "Trottoir" in the French pronunciation. For some reason nobody gets exited about French loanwords.
