I am German. Auto correct changing "document" to "Dokument" (the German Word) happens easily on a phone set to German and honestly just didn't jump at me as wrong. After all it's how I am used to read the word.
But I am honestly curious. How does a misspelled word pander to those that are like minded? Does "Dokument" have any meaning in English that I as a not nativ speaker am not aware of?
Some people might assume that writing a word in a German style means you're comparing the subject matter to Nazis in some way, I guess? That's the best I've got
Yea that's what I thought at first
