What you call dating when you know you are dating but your parents prefer to not use the word "dating". 'Schnübler' is the word used in place of boyfriend or girlfriend, or dater.
Derived from the German word "schnuffi" which translates as "fluffy"
I really want to schnuff that panda's fluffy tummy.
That kitty is so schnuffy, look at his adorable face.
Every day I give my fat bunny a good schnuffing.
