User blog comment:ShalinP/Germanish and Deutsch or Theetch and Theedish?/@comment-31440310-20181013061809

I feel as if picking words based on whether they are ugly or not rather random, plus it ruins the symmetry english tends to have with german with other words like "thick" vs "dicke", "thistle" vs "distel", "three" vs "drei" and so forth. The th sound is something that many other germanic tongues have lost over the years so I believe Theech and Theedish to be the prefered way to go. I would not mind if Germanish and Dutch (the English adoption of the word Deutsch, and for the Netherlands we'd use Netherlandish, as they do in other germanic tongues) were instead added as alternatives to the words that are already used.
