This makes the inventor of the little Ottifant extremely proud, as he showed in an Instagram post.

For a screenshot of the Duden entry he wrote: "Staaark – my Ottifant is now in the Duden!" It went on to say: "Now I can always read how to spell and pronounce it correctly, where it actually comes from and even what its genitive is like. I didn't even know that he had a genitive - he never showed me that". With his famous "Holdrio" he closes his message to the almost 390,000 followers.
