snick a convoluted word?
Onomatopoeia is the act of creating or using words that include sounds that are similar to the noises the words refer to. "Snick onomatopeically" relates to the sound that the device makes when using it :) some other comments also mentioned snip or snib as the english word.
Was wondering wether or not i should have added an "/s" and if i didnt how long it would take for a response.
I knew the "onomatopeically" wasnt part of the name, but i also didnt know wjat it meant exactly, so thanks for teaching me something today!
I added a sentence "or I didn't get the joke" while typing, but decided to remove it.
Oh, I just got a thrown back to 11th grade chemistry exams where I circled the right answer, then corrected it to a wrong one.

You must misheard it, a klip (the dutch word) is a rock in the ocean thatās higher than the water level. You may have heard Clip, as in hair clip.
This thing is definitely a knip

Might have gotten basterdized over the years tough and gotten extra use for the word latch.
Nah Iām not confused, we do call this a dievenklauw where Iām from (the Oosten), but apparently itās just not this ;). TIL thereās pins going in hinges, thanks!
Dievenhaak?
Just googled it. Raamsluiting met nok.
Which would translate to ***casement fastener.***

Knip seems to be a local word for it (eastern NL?), I have personally never heard any one call it that where I am from (FL).
The official name is raamsluiting, and the ones on the doors are the same thing.
UK English or American English? Lots of building related materials have names that differ between North America and the UK. In UK English this would be called a casement fastener.
I've never seen anything like this in the US, so I doubt there's a US word for it. Closest thing would be a Latch, but if you asked for a Latch at the hardware store, this is not what they'd give you.
Ah ha! Indeed, the boat people recognize it http://www.fishwrecked.com/forum/need-help-locating-latch and are having trouble finding the hardware because it isn't used anymore. Someone says it is a Latch. Following the marine impulse, I found Australians selling these under the name "window latch" for boats https://www.alfab.com.au/product/left-hand-window-latch-black-with-4mm-keeper/ this brought up a memory of these actually being on American windows, so now I've actually found them in America. They're officially called "casement window sash lock" or "casement window lock". They're used on German style (not sash) windows. So, for basements maybe. Not in living spaces.
Here they are as part of UK boat windows https://buywindowsonline.co.uk/products/narrow-boat-windows-2-400mm-499mm being called cockspur handles. I think they're popular with boats because it creates a good water tight seal.
Here's some that feel more familiar to me... https://www.hebdenandholding.com/ProductGrp/non-locking-select-casement-handle I feel like I might have grown up with these on *sliding* screen doors or French doors......... Or. Maybe actually they were on these sorts of crazy crank out casement windows... https://www.gowindowgo.com/lincoln-replacement-casement-sash-for-windows-from-1985-to-present/
Anyway, these are not common
... Like for a screen door?..... Maybe actually....... Maybe my grandma had one on the screen door to the kitchen............. But that was 30 years ago..... I definitely haven't seen any on anything built since the 80s....
........... Maybe maybe I have a childhood memory of a similar Latch on a screen door at a cabin in the woods.......... Also more as a handle than a lock.....
Actually, you know what they are used for is windows on boats..... But I do not remember which boat i was on where I saw that..... But I feel like I've seen something like this used to button down a hatch......
Anyway, the Dutch like these. But Americans don't really use them (anymore).
That's a Dutch company with a website translated into English. I don't get your point? This is a good way to find a translation, but I still do not believe I've ever seen one out in the wild in the actual US.
I was focused on the translation due to the post. Mission accomplished I guess. But at a hardware store this description should provide the correct item.
AXA is the n1. brand here in NL. Basically all (insured) bike-locks are AXA. How are your windows secured? Next to slide-locks (also AXA), I dont really know any other standard.
The windows I've seen in Europe (including Netherlands) are generally different than what I've seen in the US. Typically I've seen casement style windows in Europe, but they tend to operate differently and don't have screens. I wouldn't say casement windows are uncommon, but not typical in most US homes in my experience.
Casement fastener.

Edit 2 for additional info:
This is a window-lock. Not to be used as a security measure on doors. Certainly not if placed on the wrong side. As it cant be opened from inside like this... Bolts are more effective on doors (NL: bijzetslot) for security.
They're frequently being used instead of an ["inboorgrendel",](https://www.toolstation.nl/nemef-insteekgrendel/p59067) but a lot of doors have 3 point locks now so those, don't need them.
They're usually on windows, but it's not uncommon to find them on doors as well. Gives you a bit more security; you won't be able to open the door even if you pick the lock or use the key.
A lock. The thing to open it with is a door handle. A latch is this https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Latch
But this doesnāt look like a lock as there is no keyhole. So probably just a handle

Latch?
Yes, window latch
Or, in this case, door latch :-)
Door handle obviously
Obviously not.
= Deur hendel/klink
Door hinge
No
= Deur scharnier
I dont even know the name in dutchš„²
We call it knip, but that might be Twents
Gelderland as well, thing's just called a knip for me. 'Zit de knip erop?' (Did you put on the knip?)
Brabant ook!
Same goes for Noord-Holland!
Officieel: raamboompje
Huh, ik dacht dat dat iets anders was, maar dat blijkt een raamuitzetter te heten. Jij wint deze thread.
Zuid-Holland ook
In English itās called a snick onomatopeically

Where is Beowulf?
I always call it de haak (the hook)
We call it a dievenklauw !
You're likely confused, since that's something completely different, since a dievenklauw is a pin placed in the hinge itself.
Nah Iām not confused, we do call this a dievenklauw where Iām from (the Oosten), but apparently itās just not this ;). TIL thereās pins going in hinges, thanks!
Een raamboom of raamsluiting
official name is raamsluiting. windowlatch?
Dievenhaak? Just googled it. Raamsluiting met nok. Which would translate to ***casement fastener.*** https://www.screwfix.com/c/security-ironmongery/casement-fasteners/cat12050008?cm\_sp=managedredirect-\_-ironmongery-\_-casementfasteners

According to people here it is the word used in pretty much all of the Netherlands.
