Scorbut.

I don't know if Austria is currently suffering a health crisis or something, but over here in the Netherlands there tends to be little to no scurvy.

For what it's worth, you made me look up that word. No 'scorbut' could be found, but 'scorbutic' was close enough.

I always imagined Hurde as a smug British bro or German guy. Pronounced with a soft G.

But apparently he's a smug Dutch dude.

It appears to have been an attempt to jump the scoundrel/rapscallion/scallywag bandwagon, but we already parked that vehicle and went to the pub for drinks.

So that we can laugh at each other's accent when we converse in English with each other. Now it's true that I know a bit of German as well, but I practice my English way more often.
