Profi-Tipp

Context matters

Use 'blockiert' for physical obstructions (e.g., roads) and 'gesperrt' for digital restrictions (e.g., accounts). For pipes, 'verstopft' is preferred.

Wortursprung

From Middle English *blokken*, from Old French *bloc* (block of wood), ultimately of Germanic origin; related to Dutch *blok* and German *Block*.

Verwendungshinweise

In German, 'blockiert' is the most common translation, but 'gesperrt' is used for accounts or access. For pipes/drains, 'verstopft' is more idiomatic. Avoid literal translations like 'blocked' in German contexts where 'blockiert' or 'gesperrt' fits better.
