As I think they developed 'Deutsch'
from eine Fremdsprache,
a foreign language,
what did die Deutschen
call themselves before that?
Die Gleichsprachigen?
The Same-Languagers?
Genau genommen, Strictly speaking,
the Approximately-the-Same-Languagers,
die Ungefährgleichsprachigen.
To make language-play a sport:
before 'die Deutschen',
die Ungefähren, for short.
