Talk:Berliner

German adjectives
Words such as Berliner (as in "die Berliner Mauer"), Hamburger, Wiener (as in "Wiener Würstchen") are adjectives, but are usually written with a capital letter. As adjectives are (usually) written with small letters in German, it would be logical to write berliner, hamburger, wiener. And indeed such forms were used.

what about as a jelly doughnut
I have heard many places, and in a few translation things and bilingual dictionaries, that "Berliner" is used for doughnut, yet, I have not been able to find any internet forums or anything with it, so I don't have a citation for usage. It's probably got some usage in fiction, but I can't get that much by means of google. 2607:F5F0:110:1:0:0:0:3 21:01, 14 October 2020 (UTC)
