Zometeen

Zometeen Het woord zometeen is een woord wat genormaliseerd is door Surinamers in de jaren 80. Het woord bestaat eigenlijk uit twee woorden namelijk 'Zo' en 'Meteen'. Het geeft aan dat je iets binnenkort zal doen en wordt vaak gebruikt wanneer je weet dat je te laat zal komen, omdat er geen tijdsaanduiding is, waardoor er meer tijdsspeling ontstaat. Het woord wordt nog steeds gebruikt in de Nederlandse volksmond maar is nooit meegenomen in de Dikke Van Dale. Geschiedenis Wanneer mensen vroeger de vraag stelden "Hoe laat ben je er?". Antwoorden zij eerst nog; "Ik kom er meteen aan", maar dan kwamen ze alsnog te laat. Wanneer zij "zo" zeiden was dat weer onbetrouwbaar omdat het geen tijd aangaf. Toen bedacht een (onbekende) universitair opgeleide Surinamer het woord 'zometeen', waarmee je aangeeft dat het vroeg of (te) laat wel goed komt. Referenties Het eerste geschreven materiaal wat gevonden werd met het woord 'zometeen' was in 1983 op een notitie gemaakt op een papiertje wat onder een auto ruitenwisser werd geplaatst. Het was geschreven door iemand die aangaf ‘zometeen’ terug te zijn om de schade aan zijn auto betalen. Helaas is die belofte nooit nagekomen. In de jaren 90 werd het woord steeds vaker gebruikt, zo ook op televisie. Onder andere John Williams gebruikte het woord vaak in het TV programma Call TV (Game Time), en gaf ook toe dat het een stopwoord was geworden. John zei het vaak wanneer de reclame zou beginnen en wanneer hij ergens op terug zou komen.

This was sent as a gift to my grandson, who lives in another state, so I never saw it. However I asked him as follows: "Just checking ... their request for a review shows an aquamarine mug ... it was supposed to be purple (eggplant, they called it). Was it purple?" Then he said: "It was purple! And thank you I love it haha Sent from my iPhone"

so happy you were able to put my unique word "Obergrossescheinehund" onto the new yellow mug. The yellow mug and black print make it easy for the words to be seen.

The "Pink Flamingo" colour with white text on a pink background is the best selection for this fine phrase mug. May I suggest you also correct the misspelling of "delightfully" in the default option for a timeless gift.
