eyesmadeofcoal-deactivated20100 asked: help! what on earth does digga mean? it's not a harsh word, I know this, but does it mean something along the lines of ~friend?

I’m afraid I don’t know the word you’re talking about. Sorry :(

EDIT:

An anomynous reader and somebody on Facebook were so kind to explain “digga” to me. Thank you so much, guys! :)

Apparently it’s a slang word for “Dicker” which means something like “buddy” or “pal”. Greeting someone with “Ey Digga, alles klar?” is used colloquially in the Hamburg area. There’s even a website for teenagers from Hamburg called digga - CLICK.
