German term or phrase: Ei der Daus (!)
Creio que se trate de uma expressão antiquada. Não sei o que significa. No Langenscheidts Deutsch als Fremdsprache, encontrei apenas "Nanu"...

Bem, agradeço por qualquer ajuda na tradução de "Ei der Daus!". Obrigada.

Explanation:
Oh Diabo !
Aldrabão
Diabrete ............etc.

"Ei der Daus! als Ausruf der Verblüffung ist seit dem 15. Jahrhundert belegt. Zunächst bedeutete es „Betrüger“, in der niederdeutschen Sprache auch „Teufel“, seit dem 18. Jahrhundert ist die Bedeutung „Teufelskerl“ bezeugt. Möglicherweise findet sich in einem Teil dieser Bedeutungen ein für die galloromanischen Sprachen bezeugtes Wort für „Dämon“ wieder, das in mittellateinischer Sprache „dusius“ lautete
