@kitten Ja, das ist auch eine richtig süße Geschichte.

(Ja, eine F+ (friend with benefits) von mir ist auch little. Ich habe ihr die Geschichten immer abends angekuschelt im Bett vorgelesen, während sie am Schnuller genuckelt hat 🥰)

(German question: I'm confused by your use of "meinem" in the previous post, when it comes to gender

@kitten

(Ahhh, the usual German gender-weirdness. “Little” feels to me as it should have a neutral pronoun (“das Little”). I guess it comes from “das Kleinkind“. And the possessive pronoun then is “mein” -> “meinem”)

@kitten gender or pronoun association in German is weird as it is and gets even weirder with non-German words. 😅

@4censord @kitten Also avoid: "Struwwelpeter" and "Max und Moritz". Both have children who are being naughty meet rather gruesome ends. neocat_googly_shocked

@AliciaBytes @4censord @kitten I strongly suspect those specific ones were meant as "educational" when they were written, in a deterrent sense… neocat_scream_scared
