Pseudo-anglicisms. Can you guess the right solution?

[noname223]

A pseudo-anglicism is a word in another language that is formed from English elements and may appear to be English, but that does not exist as an English word with the same meaning.

Here ares some German words which sound English but they are no part of the English language. If you talk with some Germans you might stumble over these words. Mabye you can guess the solution.

The most famous one a "handy". Sounds dirty what could it be?
Here is the solution.: It is a term for a smartphone

The word "beamer" is often used in schools.
The solution is (video) projector

What could be an "Oldtimer"?
A vintage car

Hotline help line

Very popular when watching soccer "public viewing" public sports broadcast

"Talkmaster" on TV host, emcee

Maybe you can add some pseudo-anglicism of your language. Which one was the weirdest one of the German ones?

I like beamer. I thought it would be someone who smiles all the time!

Handy is great. Two interpretations. You hold it in your hand but it is also handy as in useful.

Thanks. I love this post. I find language fun.

I love the Japanese use of English. Pokémon for instance. That actually doesn't sound English even though it's pocket monster. And then it was adopted by English speakers.
