  • sause ˉˊ ˘ verb, pp. gsaust
    1. to whoosh
      Example
      1. Wie watt dann die Welt so schtill,/ Alles schickt sich aa zum Lausche;/ Wunnere was nau warre will,/ Merke uff—en sanftes Sause./ Mensche, Vieh, un alles lauscht,/ Waarde schtill un mit Verlange;/ Bis der Regge nidder rauscht,—/ Bis die brennend Hitz vergange. How quiet does the world become,/ Everything readies itself for listening;/ Wondering what will happen now,/ Pay attention—a gentle whooshing./ Men, cattle, and everything listens,/ Waiting quietly and with a longing;/ Until the rain rushes down,—/ 'Till the burning heat (is) gone.
