Danderma actually has a meaning. It is not a nickname for Dana, it is not a nice sounding word only, it is not a just a name. It is the old Kuwaiti word for ice cream. It was the first thing Iooked for when I bought the Kuwaiti Dialect Encyclopedia and sure enough there it was
If you didn’t know what Danderma meant until this post, what did you think it meant? I’m curious…
interesting! i always thought it was something related to music dunno why
Music? How come!?????
I know what it meant since I was a child
unfortunately young people and teens might not know what that word means !
Sadly even grown ups don’t know what it means! I have had so many men and women ask why I chose the nickname danderma if I was called dana because it can mean nothing else! It drove me crazy!
This was so upsetting Kuwaiti people don’t know there own language 😐
It kinda is but the word is very old and people have stopped using it since the 70’s…
oooh I am sorry I thought it was your real name:p…sorry, not good in arabic that much…lol…dana is such a nice name n the nick is so feminine and musical!
no no no not my real name at all though mine is close :p
Honestly, when I saw the name of the blog. I ran into my father and told him what the word means, sadly he didn’t knew it and said I doubt it’s a word. By then, I just thought that it was an “unique” nickname for Dana;p
Ur father must have eaten danderma as a kid! maybe you didn’t pronounce it right?
I know that it is the Turkish word for ice cream, it is not Kuwaiti but was used in Kuwait
Well many of the words used in the Kuwaiti dialect come from different languages: Turkish, Indian, Persian, English, etc. Whether or not its usage entitles it to be a “Kuwaiti” even if it originates from another language is something to think about
