Haushaltskasse

Non-PRO German to English Other Other
Shampoo, Chips und Pullover? Diese Dinge kommen in einer Berliner Wohngemeinschaft nicht vor. Sie heißen dort Haarwaschmittel, Kartoffelscheiben und Überzieher. Die drei Mitbewohner haben sich der Sprachpflege verschrieben: Wer Anglizismen gebraucht, zahlt in die Haushaltskasse.
TIA!
