Usage notes

  • The plural is most often unchanged Spitzpaprika when preceded by an article, determiner, or numeral, and most often Spitzpaprikas when standing alone. This distinction is just a tendency, however.
  • The masculine gender for the fruit is the older usage and today limited to Eastern and Southern German, as well as Austrian, dialects, and Austrian Standard German. The feminine gender is partially used in all of Germany and only uncommon in Austria. Younger speakers are more likely to refer to the fruit as feminine.[1]
