Berliner Slang of the Quarter!

 

In 2022 wird alles wieder “Paletti”.

 

 

“Alles paletti” means that everything is okay and is an expression that will only be heard in Berlin. While German natives from across the country will tell you that “Alles ist OK” or “in Ordnung”, the Berliners set themselves apart with their preference for paletti.
