## German

### Etymology

From French papa.

### Pronunciation

* Audio:(file)
* Rhymes: -apa, -aː

### Noun

Papa m (strong, genitive Papas, plural Papas)
* dad, daddy
    Synonym: Vati

#### Usage notes

* The word is commonly used with a definite article in most parts of central Germany, southern Germany, and Austria: Wo ist der Papa? – "Where is Dad?" In northern Germany—and generally in writing—no article tends to be used: Wo ist Papa?
* The genitive Papas is used before the modified term, without any article or determiner: Papas Tasche – “Dad’s bag”. This is chiefly northern German usage; the southern German prefers the dative: die Tasche vom Papa (as above). — The genitive can also be used with an accompanying article or determiner: die Tasche meines Papas – “my dad’s bag”. This, however, is not common usage in any region; children will say instead: die Tasche von meinem Papa.

#### Derived terms

* Papi (affectionate)
