In Croatia we call them palačinke ("pa-la-cheen-ke")
We call them Hot Cakes in Mexico (or in my town at least), also what am I seen in the second pic? A Hot Cake taco?
i think we call those crepes. They're thinner pancakes.
Палачинки (palachinki) in Bulgarian. Also, hello fellow Lidl-customer and Martenitsa-enjoyer.
In Hungarian its "palacsinta". Wow, I didn't know we say this similarly.
I think it's similar in Czech, and in our (Italian) family, my mother's side is Austrian and "palacinken" (some italianized german word) has been a family dish forever.
My wife is English and she calls my pancakes "scotch pancakes". Meanwhile she makes crêpes and calls those "pancakes". Shit is crazy, yo.
as someone from the north of England, “scotch” or “ scotch drop” pancakes are very different from crepes and folks here will fight over that
Icelandic: pönnukökur (plural), pönnukaka (singular)
Kaka is babyslang for shit in germany.
I've heard that it means shit in a few languages. I for one love eating kaka
Poor guy just liked playing soccer, why would you eat him? :(
Huh I hear the same word used occasionally in english. I wonder if that's regional or not.
pancakes, or breakfast frisbees, or syrup tortillas, or standby drink coasters.
Pancakes! some of my stacks

lol
a simple concession for my vegetarian and vegan friends that hurts nobody. empathy is free you know!
If empathy is free, then why don't I have any 🦍
Pannenkoeken in the Netherlands and they look remarkably similar
I think it's similar in German - pfannkochen or something like that
Yes, Pfannkuchen (which means exactly pancake). But only in west Germany. East call them Eierkuchen. (Eggcake)
In the US those would be called Crêpes. The thicker, fluffy version are pancakes. And the things that Japan makes are perfection. Actual Pan Cake.
The things that Japan makes.
I had never made crepes until I met a Romanian at work and once she found out I cooked, she encouraged me to make her some things to remind her of home.
We had clatite first, with nutella and preserves. Now I usually think of crepes as clatite since that was what I got familiar with first. 😄
We also had Parprikash with mamaliga, and my favorite of the bunch, cozonac! I made 2, one with the nut filling, and I want to say the other was poppy. The nut one I have made a few times since. So tasty, and the rum flavoring makes it so unique!
She just randomly disappeared on day, so I don't know if she quit or what, but I will always have fond memories of my bried education on Romanian food!
You met some Romanian fairy creature that dined and ditched you.
Lol she was very secretive!
She had a husband supposedly, but she never really talked about him other than saying he existed. She came over for the paprikash dinner, but he did not. She supposedly came to America as a child. Her and some others were supposed to be here for some sports tournament thing, but whoever had the money in Romania stole it ,so they were stuck here and most of them just stayed.
We joked in the office she was in some weird kind of mafia situation, and then one day we never saw her again. Her whole situation was mysterious and fascinating from start to finish.
There are worse spirits I could have encountered and a hungry Romanian one! 😆
Blynai (general term) / Lietiniai (specific type) American ones are Amerikietiški blyneliai, but no one talks about or makes them .
