Urban Merch - Mug Maan Scheetse

Mug for coffee or tea. With imprint in Ghent dialect: Maan Scheetse (my darling).

In the dialect of Ghent, ‘maan scheetse' literally means ‘my fart’ or ‘my wind’ but it is often used as an affectionate word, similar to how people in other languages or dialects playfully call someone a ‘cutie’ or ‘sweetheart’. In this context, the word carries a playful, humorous undertone and is usually used between people who know each other well and have an informal connection. It shows that people interact with each other in a familiar and light-hearted way, without literally farting about. After all, the Ghent dialect is known for its own humour and often playful, direct word choice.
