Thank you for that... There are lots of ways of opening zippers in the German language... in addition to your version, other words for zipper include Reißverschluss, Reissverschluss and Zippverschluss. On the subject of linguistics, I was in Tenerife last week, and I went to a weekly language exchange evening in the local bar to meet a charming lady friend. Her zipper was open.. this turned out to be an accident, but it got me thinking.. learning a language is much more memorable when practised in real life situations.. we could organise an embarrassment party, where the dress theme is to turn up fully clothed but with underwear on display... and we could learn all about multicultural wardrobe malfunctions...
