  Ya, I get it that this is the whole joke of the post, but I’m bemused to discover that I’m a slutt datafag.
  I had not anticipated achieving such a pinnacle in my lifetime.

    I have never heard anyone call computer science “datafag”, it’s usually called “informatikk” (like “informatics” which you can also say in English), and “slutt” just means end or stop, I have never heard anyone use it to refer to graduating.

  Bottom one is more stop/end computer class, does not imply graduation, though fag is generally used as tradecraft. Which makes the books you use for it fag literature.

    Btw, where did faggot come from?

      Fag in Norwegians has norse origins while faggot developed independently and only recently become a slur and come out of American vernacular.

      In older English it was used to mean a burdensome person and it’s sort of resumed that meaning as it’s now often used to mean someone who is annoying.

      Adding a fun double entendre when used to describe a homophobic person.

  If you pronounce “fag” like a Dutch, a German would here “Fach” which translates to (school-)subject

  • fenrasulfr@lemmy.world ⁨1⁩ ⁨hour⁩ ago

    In Dutch it would be vak.

    yep, or “field of study”, so if you study in Norway, students who study the same might arrange a “fagfest” together, and a skilled worker is often known as a “fagarbeider”

    Sound like there’s some etymological relation between the words (but a cursory search didn’t immediately give me an answer, boo).

      They are cognate: en.wiktionary.org/wiki/fag
