djdiggla Posted March 5, 2020 Author Share Posted March 5, 2020 So if you played it in the German orchestra you would say you "play the fagott"? Or if you were trying to use a homosexual slur your would call someone a "bassoon"? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mfsop Posted March 6, 2020 Share Posted March 6, 2020 Well, most people don't know about the English word "fagott", so there are no word plays that I know of. You either say "Ich spiele Fagott" or "Ich bin ein Fagottist". However, you'll hear lots of bad jokes about oral sex since wind instruments are blowing instruments in German.
