सांस्कृतिक पृष्ठभूमि
The word 'voll' is part of the 'Duzen' culture. It is almost exclusively used with people you address as 'du'. Using it with a 'Sie' partner can feel like a social 'clash'. In Berlin, 'voll' is often combined with 'ey' or 'Alter' to create a very specific urban, casual vibe. It's the soundtrack of the U-Bahn. While 'voll' is understood and used, Austrians often prefer 'ur' as their primary slang intensifier. 'Ur gut' is the Austrian 'voll gut'. Swiss German uses 'voll' similarly, but often with a different melodic intonation. It is very common among young people in Zurich.
