单词 knipsen
释义

knipsen

German

Etymology

From the now dated noun Knips (flip; dab), itself derived with the northern suffix -s from the verb Middle Low German knippen (to flip; to slap; to wink). Compare Dutch knippen. This verb may plausibly be thought to be derived from Middle Low German knīpen (to squeeze) (see kneifen), but onomatopoeia has certainly played a role in the development of this root.

Pronunciation

  • IPA(key): /ˈknɪpsən/

Verb

knipsen (third-person singular simple present knipst, past tense knipste, past participle geknipst, auxiliary haben)

  1. to nip; to pinch (particularly so as to pluck or cut off)
  2. to perforate (particularly a ticket, so as to invalidate)
  3. to photograph
