    rosey cheeks

    Correct?

    das pus bakken

    Comment
    A German friend called our new daughter
    "das pus bakken" and said it meant rosey cheeks.
    I am trying to confirm correct German spelling and phrase.

    ... Backen



    Comment
    Well, it ought to be "rosige Backen" I think, but it doesn't sound like you could have confused "rosige" for what you wrote, so I don't know.

    Pausbacken?



    Comment
    Bin mir nicht sicher, aber könnten "Pausbacken" gemeint sein? Ist das Einzige, was mir in dem Zusammenhang einfällt.

    Pausbacken, Pausbäckchen



    Comment
    Pausbacken or Pausbäckchen, which I would translate as "chubby cheeks" rather than rosy cheeks

    As it has a "das" article, it's bound to have been "das Pausbäckchen".
