German, rfv-sense of "German casual game franchise for PCs". Unlikely to pass WT:Brand. ←₰-→ Lingo Bingo Dingo (talk) 10:33, 16 December 2019 (UTC)Reply

@Lingo Bingo Dingo Likely to pass, must pass. It’s a thing that only German 1980s kids know. You can’t imagine how much it was on everyone's lips in the decade around 2000, being on “every” office computer, hence giving rise to many legal cases. Search for Moorhuhn and Arbeit or something like that. I see it genericized together with Solitär, minesweeper and the like. Fay Freak (talk) 13:49, 16 December 2019 (UTC)Reply
In the first umpteen GBS hits I checked, I did not notice ostensible genericity; the term appeared to be used as a proper noun in reference to the original grouse-shooting game. Can you dig up some indisputably generic uses?  --Lambiam 10:00, 17 December 2019 (UTC)Reply
So what you're saying is "gimme more Huhn"? (trigger warning for terrible, terrible music). ←₰-→ Lingo Bingo Dingo (talk) 08:46, 18 December 2019 (UTC)Reply
@Fay Freak, if you're so sure, add some quotes, else it will be deleted. —Μετάknowledgediscuss/deeds 22:07, 28 March 2020 (UTC)Reply
  • Is this example sufficient for WT:BRAND? [1]: "Er sah die Menschen Pause machen, [...], sah sie Moorhuhn spielen, [...]"

Deleted, not dictionary material and wrong POS. In almost two years nobody has added any usable quotes. – Jberkel 16:05, 14 October 2021 (UTC)Reply
