Mapper | I hereby preemptively disagree with the two close votes that claim this question could be answered by looking at a dictionary or grammar book. Typically, explanations about why a certain variant of an expression is chosen over another one are at best vaguely alluded to by (non-)informative keywords in dictionaries that can never replace the interpretation (also with respect to the individual occurrence) by someone knowledgeable about the language. | |
| Nov 22, 2016 at 12:42 | comment | added | anemone | @RedSonja I was thinking of something like that. At least Lindt seems to be consistent in this. If you can retrieve it from their website, I'd be grateful if you could post it as an answer. I cannot find it, possibly because the website presents itself alternately in Czech and in English, but not in German. | |

The etymology says it comes from the Spanish chocolate and the French chocolat. The Swiss have their own version of the German language. | |
