meeple

A generic term for little wooden figures used in german board gaming... but which is absolutely NOT german. Germans call these "Spielfigur" or even "Männchen".

Person 1: "Oooo, Carcasonne has all sorts of cool little meeples."
Person 2: "Dude, it's called "Männchen". Hahaha. Lol, dumbass."
