@utopiarte@mina l’ve never understood cards throughout my life. Although l see people sitting in circles on the ground and playing cards. They gamble actually.
I’ve often heard the word “trump” and "over Trump"😄😄😄. Now I wonder what the term means 🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔
@codewizard Trump comes from Trumpf the german word for trionfi which (apparently (wikipedia)) is the original italian word for cards that overrule cards of plain suits.
Plains are like the commoners and trionfi cards are the nobility who do not have to obey by the normal rules, or lets say, trump the normal plain suit cards, they are stronger.
Commonly you have to play the kind of cards the initial card in a turn commands. If that is for example a plain of clubs, every one has to play a club. I someone does not have a card of the kind of the initial card of the turn, than they are free to throw what ever card they want to. If they play a trionfi card, a Trumpf, they win the turn over, unless another player that also does not have the requested plain plays a higher trionfi card and wins.
Auftrumpfen in german means kinda doing a show off, to expose your capabilities.
Where do you see people playing card games sitting in circles on the ground?
(The gambling (for money) is actually a secondary thing, to improve the tension and not necessary at all)
@jesuisatire you asked that question to me ??🤔🤔🤔
Your profile @jesuisatire states:
“Selfie eines unschuldigen Baby Bonobo das in die Kamera guckt.”
But it looks like, and that might be the point here, mastodon does not offer (yet) translation for the Profiles.
Looks to me that your Queen of Spades and @utopiarte’s King of Diamonds are perhaps at risk.
🤔
@codewizard
@bitpickup
At risk?
Actually that depends on the nature of the game and the reasoning behind playing that King of Diamonds.
We might ask @mina how all this looks right now from a bystanders point of view.
🤔🤔
@jesuisatire @codewizard
@utopiarte l don’t make anything of it.
@codewizard
Off what, Bonobo’s?
@utopiarte of the comment that you made.
@codewizard
Why did you skip the mention of @mina, as a by stander (an independent third party) that could be helpful\useful to explain\mediate perhaps?
