Usage tips
Typical collocations
The verbs 'essen' (to eat), 'bestellen' (to order), 'zubereiten' (to prepare), and 'füllen' (to fill) are often used with 'Wrap'. The phrase 'einen Wrap mit …' is also particularly common when naming the filling.
EXAMPLE
Für die Zugfahrt habe ich zwei Wraps mit Salat und Käse zubereitet.
I prepared two wraps with lettuce and cheese for the train journey.
Naming the filling
With 'Wrap', the filling is often introduced with 'mit' (with), followed by a noun phrase in the dative. This lets you name the ingredients directly in the sentence.
EXAMPLE
Ich bestelle einen Wrap mit gebratenem Gemüse und Avocado.
I'm ordering a wrap with fried vegetables and avocado.
Compound nouns
'Wrap' often comes at the end of compound nouns that describe the filling or occasion in more detail. Typical examples include 'Gemüse-Wrap' (vegetable wrap), 'Hähnchen-Wrap' (chicken wrap), and 'Frühstücks-Wrap' (breakfast wrap).
EXAMPLE
Auf der Speisekarte gibt es heute einen Gemüse-Wrap und einen Frühstücks-Wrap.
Today's menu includes a vegetable wrap and a breakfast wrap.
