What does 'Grappemaker' mean??? ?

Question

It was left as a comment against a photo on Facebook (by a dutch person). When I try and translate it online it just says the english translation is Grappemaker too!!!! Which I have never heard of!!???

Answer 1

It means "joker". A person who likes to joke around. I'm Dutch-Indo and speak, read, and write Dutch fluently having lived in the country for over 14 years.

If you're a guy, it's "grappenmaker" and if you're a gal it's "grappenmaakster".

Wow. Rarely ever get a question regarding the Dutch language. This is exciting to me. :-D
