noun KAE-ze-shpets-le Rare
Food & Drink Dishes

Usage Note

Käsespätzle is usually treated as plural (die Käsespätzle), like Spätzle itself; the singular das Spätzle is rare. The ä is umlauted, so it sounds 'shpets-le', not 'shpaytsle'.

Examples

"Käsespätzle mit Röstzwiebeln ist das Lieblingsessen meines Mannes."

Natural Translation

Cheese spaetzle with fried onions is my husband's favourite meal.

Literal Translation

Cheese-spaetzle with fried-onions is the favourite-food of my husband.
