As to the etymolgy of Pechvogel, could this relate to Vogelleim birdlime? People used to catch birds with glue-tipped sticks to keep them as pets Leimrute.
You are right about the original meaning of Pech in Pechvogel --I've heard this explanation many times, and I mention it in my book Wild Things in the German Language. However, the intent of the bird catchers may have been less benign: I read they twisted the necks of the caught birds and then fried them for dinner--still happens in countries like Italy. BTW the platform smeared with Pech to catch birds was called a Vogelherd in German, a "bird range" or "bird stove top".
Saturday, September 5, Words of the Month: Pechvogel combines Pech misfortune, bad luck with Vogel bird. The word denotes a person who has bad luck, like a soccer player who scores an own goal--he or she will be the Pechvogel of the match. More generally, the word denotes a person who seems to have always bad luck.
The word is used in German where in English one would perhaps use "bad news bear". More in my first comment Wild Things in the German Language: Kindle version iBook version ]. Posted by Ulrich at 9: Newer Post Older Post Home.
