Hunter language

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The hunter language , even woodsman language or Weidmann language , is the traditional technical and special language of hunters . It is made up of technical terms from the field of hunting and is used by hunters for precise communication with one another and as part of hunting customs . The considerate hunter does not use the hunter's language with non-hunters in order to avoid comprehension problems.

From the 19th century onwards, the hunting language in the German-speaking area was increasingly standardized; the regional terminology today - at least in the German part of Switzerland - has largely given way to a communal German. Many expressions in the hunter's language have been in use for centuries. Some are also in the vernacular been taken over, for example, in the phrases "someone a box on the spoon give" "the, track bring" and " through their fingers go ."

history

The hunters language has its origins on the one hand in the precise description of nature observations and letters of the erlegenden Wilde as technical language to date, on the other hand, historically in the conscious dismissal of the nobility of the "common people" (especially the less prone to transfiguration "Bauer hunters") . The language underwent a significant development from the 12th century as the guild language of professional hunters. At that time, however, it was limited to the areas of red deer or big game hunting , hunting dogs , falconry and bird trapping . It was not until the 17th and 18th centuries that terms from small game hunting were increasingly included.

Demarcation

Not to be confused with the hunter language is the one with the yarn similar tall tales . This is understood to mean that a hunter tells an exaggerated story of experience in order to brag or to mislead ignorant listeners to joke. Fabulous game species such as the rascal or the Wolpertinger belong in the area of ​​the hunter's Latin.

Traditional names from animal fables and fairy tales such as Reineke Fuchs or Reineke for the fox, Meister Lampe for the hare or Malepartus for the construction of the fox are also not part of the hunter's language .
