[split] Discussion of f116v interpretations by Anton Alipov
#83
The term "so nim gaf mich" on page You are not allowed to view links. Register or Login to view. is often interpreted as "so nim geismi[l]ch" meaning "... take goats milk". What other interpretations are known for this phrase?

I wonder if "gaf" could be a short form for the german word "gaffen" (english: to peer at sth.). In this case it is not necessary to interpret the last word as "milch" with a "l" missing. The whole phrase could be interpreted as "so nim. gaf mich." meaning "Take me. Stare at me."
