EuroBillTracker

To ebtalise or not to ebtalise, that's the addicted question!

propongo due termini in italiano:

1) ebittare

2) eurobillare

ciao a tutti!

Doesn't sound very French to me...
What about billotraquer ?

Since my co-workers and friends are very helpful in showing me notes, we have settled on "eurotraquer" ... or I have, at least

but since talking and long words are indeed de rigueur in France, there's always "participer sur Internet au suivi et à l'encodage des billets libellés en euros dans le but de gagner une cyber-retrouvaille"

But "eurotraquer" sums it up nicely... ...calqued on "eurotracking", probably....we will have to wait for the decision of l'Académie française....

Well, yes, if we can wait till year 2100

What about organizing a poll on the French forum, rather, when we have enough different proposals ?

Nice. We have a word for it. Not like those in America. "Wheresgeorging"? Just doesn't sound right

we need to gte them in dictionaries etc..

Now, FotoVideoStore and all the others, just tell me: how do you call someone who ebtalises? An ebtist (in Portuguese ebtista). Yes, trackers can have all kinds of religions: wheresgeorgers (or georgists), doshtrackers (or doshists) and ebtists, of course.

But Finns already use the word träkkäys (tracking). -->v. träkätä, s. träkkääminen or träkkäys
Tr wasn´t used in Finnish this way, so in some dialects the spoken word would be räkkäys. That is close to the word rääkkäys which means torturing (animals).

In the spoken Finnish ebtata would be pronounced eptata, because b isn't a Finnish letter. There are some letters that are difficult for the Finnish speaking people to say. B becomes p, f -> v and g -> k, for example.

In Finnish it's ebtisti or ebtaaja. Ebtaaja sounds more Finnish, I would say.

How about ebtailu which could be more like "hanging around with ebt-doings" -word in finnish

He is an ebtaliser

Ebtaloida seteli is how a Finn puts their notes to the system
Ebtisera would be the same thing in Swedish, but I'm not so sure.

And I do call myself a träkkäri, who träkkää, even if it does sound like a torturer...

I have a new word ;

An Exhitbition

This is an exhibition from your hits !

And never stop ebt-ing or you may become an

ex-ebthitionst

That is one possibilty for German. Hm, perhaps I would prefer:

ebetieren
ebtieren
ebitionieren

And for French:

ebtilir
ebtilier
ebtulizer

Just my 2 € cents.

Well,in portuguese eurotracar,ebtar,anything will do,I think we are very open-minded about new words.But 'to ebtalise' (in english) seems to suit our ebt-doings.
