    Moin!

    I was wondering if somebody could tell me what Butenbremer means. Am I right it means somebody who was born and raised in Bremen and now lives abroad? My bf is from Bremen and I love surprising him with these tiny words he wouldn't expect me to know! Of course, if you have more ideas of how to surprise him - I would love to hear them all!

    Danke schoen in advance to all of yous!

    Yes, and if you still live in Bremen you're a Binnenbremer :-)

    Do you know it because you're a Butenbremer or it's just a general knowledge of your language? ;)
