  • Slovensko fôkselj (m.), gen. -na in sorodne besede
    Smole, Helena, 1974-
    Fôkselj, fôksner, fôksler and fóksne are Bavarian German loanwords in Slovenian. The original forms of these loanwords could not be found. The German nouns die Faxe(n) 'a joke', der Faxer 'a circus ... clown', der Fax 'a joker' and the verb faxen 'to joke' are the closest relatives to the etyma that could not be found. In order to prove the German origin of these words the German word-formation principles were analyzed and similar examples of German loanwords in Slovenian were studied.
