Lulatsch
In German-speaking countries, the term Lulatsch describes a shuffling, rather tall person whose posture is not good. While the first part of the word is etymologically unclear, in the 19th century Latsch was used to describe a sloppy, clumsy guy. A tall , lanky-looking person is usually referred to as a long Lulatsch .
