uit den ouden doosch

Dutch

Prepositional phrase

uit den ouden doosch

1. (humorous, archaising, neologism) Deliberate misspelling of uit de oude doos.

Usage notes

• Used in informal publications as a faux-archaic form. Note that it treats doosch as masculine noun and that the -sch spelling of doos is not etymological and unattested in older texts, so it would (likely unintentionally) be ungrammatical and misspelt according to historical norms.
