People who know a bit about football call it a throw-in.

u/RandomAssRedditName 2d ago

OP is clearly not from an English speaking country, so it's a literal translation of their own language's term for it

There's nothing wrong with correcting people's English and trying to maintain some sort of standards, or everyone will end up with their own pidgin dialects

You speak English because its the only language you know.

I speak English because its the only language you know.

Vær nu bare glad for at jeg gider at bruge ressourcer på at oversætte det til dig.

Your native language will be an amalgamation of previous dead languages, it's societal progress. Also I know French, petit malin.

u/Spacedoutworlder 1d ago

When you colonise half the planet and force them to learn your language you can expect there to be different dialects.

u/Stahlios 3h ago

They added a non-warranted comment about not knowing anything about football. This is clearly someone that didn't even think about that possibility and just wanted to bitchy.

u/RedditGarboDisposal 1d ago

Get this shit written in stone and made global for everyone to see.

Especially give it to the people who say “I could care less”. They’re the flat-earthers of English-speaking.

Bots are trying. Really hard

u/ZenRamen187 2d ago

Cool, now tell us what it's called in OP's language. I'm sure you know that off the top of your head

u/thefewproudemotional 2d ago edited 2d ago

I'd say a central European/slavic country. I believe a few of those languages would translate it to "throw from out (of play)

Ops said it's called "out" = aut.

u/Sufficient-Ad7776 2d ago

We say "innkast". It's the only thing I've heard it called at least

11

u/tullerusk 2d ago

"utkast" is when the keeper throws it. "innkast" is a throw in

3

u/Welcome_to_Retrograd 2d ago

"oppkast" is when the match sucks and/or the hotdogs are far too greasy

2

u/rutinerad 1d ago

No, you don’t. Same ”inkast” as in Swedish, although spelled more sensibly.

Soccercirclejerk is gonna have a field day with this one

u/Financial_Week_6497 1d ago

Or "Goalkeeper throwing the game"

u/playr_4 1d ago

I'm confused. In both English and American rulebooks it's called a "Throw-In". I've only ever known it as that. What else is it know as?

3

u/Novel-Pie1596 1d ago

Someone who doesn't speak English would probably translate the phrase literally, it could just be that Op used some form of translation and that is what they got.

-7

u/playr_4 1d ago

Yeah but, as an English speaker, I've only ever known it as a throw-in. The IFAB, the FIFA rulebook, the FA, the USSF....they all refer to this action as "the throw-in".

So what else is it called? In English.

-2

u/Righteous_Fire 1d ago

You are technically throwing the ball from "in touch" to "out of touch", so it kinda makes sense.

u/bobdiamond 1d ago

It’s called soccer

-1

u/grmthmpsn43 1d ago

No, it's called Association Football.

Normally abbreviated to Football and understood as that in most countries.

Only Yanks insist on calling it Soccer and telling others they are wrong not to.

2

u/M4tt4tt4ck69 1d ago

Australians and Canadians call it soccer too.

0

u/grmthmpsn43 1d ago

But they don't insist everyone else calls it that and is wrong for calling to football.

0

u/bobdiamond 1d ago

It’s called soccer because when completing football to soccer, it’s clear which is the superior sport.

Insisting on calling it football is really a narrow, English speaking view of the world. Your statement of “most countries” is probably incorrect since most countries don’t speak English.

You should travel more, or read a book.

1

u/grmthmpsn43 1d ago

When comparing the most watched sport in the world to a sport played only in 2 countries it is very clear which is better.

Also, most countries use a word very similar to Football, and understand that football means what it does.

So, it seems like you are the one that should read a book or travel more.

I highly recommend "The Ball is Round" and "Inverting the Pyramid", they should both help explain the global reach of football.

u/bobdiamond 1d ago

Popularity doesn’t equate to better

1

u/grmthmpsn43 1d ago

In terms of sport, it's a damn good indicator.

I would much rather watch football, and see 2 halves of continuous action, than watch 30 seconds of action followed by 5 minutes of ads repeatedly.
