Talk:GIPF project

The names of the games are not nonsense syllables
"Punkte" means "points" in German, but in colloquial speech the final "e" can be dropped, so it will be pronounced like PÜNCT. And there are points on the PÜNCT pieces. "Gipfel" means "peak" in German, but "el" is a diminutive suffix. So GIPF seems to mean "peak", and actually it does mean a stack of two pieces, so there is a loose connection. Kris Brum may well know German at least to some extent, or there may be related words in Flemish.
