Mama

Noun

 * 1) mum, mummy, mom, mommy

Usage notes

 * The word is commonly used with a definite article in most parts of central Germany, southern Germany, and Austria: Wo ist die Mama? – “Where is Mum?” In northern Germany—and generally in writing—no article tends to be used: Wo ist Mama?
 * The genitive Mamas is used before the modified term, without any article or determiner: Mamas Tasche – “Mum’s bag”. This is chiefly northern German usage; the rest of the language prefers: die Tasche von der Mama (as above). — With an accompanying article or determiner, the genitive takes no ending: die Tasche meiner Mama – “my mum’s bag”. This, however, is not common usage in any region; children will say instead: die Tasche von meiner Mama.

Usage notes

 * The normal plural is Männer, which can be used in all contexts and is now used exclusively in contexts other than the following.
 * The unchanged plural Mann (inherited from Old and Middle High German) is sometimes used after numerals. It means "men" as a measure for size or strength of a group rather than individuals: Mit drei Mann können wir den Schrank heben – "With three people we can lift the cupboard." Military or police personnel, team members, demonstrators and the like are often counted using this unchanged plural. This may actually include women.
 * The plural Mannen is now rare and somewhat poetic. It usually means a group of men, often soldiers, under the command or leadership of someone: Cäsars Mannen ("Caesar's men"). It is sometimes heard in sports jargon: die Mannen von Trainer XY ("coach XY's men").
