Reminds me of a rumour, that the "Fiat Punto" in finnland was understood as "Fiat bitch"....
Alright, my german isn't that god
Fiat launched a car called "Het Fitta" in sweden once, that means like "hot p*ssy"
]]>And in german, you also have "shiessen" and "sheissen"
Don't know what you mean. It is as far away from german language as "Smörebröd" and "will tu knulla met mey" is away from swedish, I think.
Btw, once I used BeOS, there was a small, funny game that was named "BeShissen". Well, sounds like "beschissen" in german ears, what means "crappy", "shitty". But hey, the game was really nice!

well, i prefer to call it "ark" instead of "arch" or "archlinux" because in german "arch" sounds a lot like "arsch" which means butt (for the non-germans here) :-) :-)
imagine some sentences like this one: "i'll tweak my arch this evening" ;-)
]]>Isn't it strange that 'Arch' linux says its a distro for people with knowledge about linux systems, and 'Ark' linux is about "people without prior Linux experience"(as written on their website).
Wierd :shock:
"c" == expernence, then, eh?

Xentac (package maintainer) says, "Arch, like the golden arches. Archer, Archibald, Archie... It is not pronounced like ark.
A good way to think of it is mentioned in the docs... or a review or interview or something... Arch comes from arch nemesis."
