Usage notes
An EU directive introduced in 1979 at the insistence of the British government prescribes that only jams prepared with citrus fruits can be sold as de Marmelade. (Since 2003 an exemption exists for local products sold directly to the end user.) Therefore jam is generally sold as de Konfitüre, which is the Swiss word for jam. This officialism has little bearing on common usage, however, where de Marmelade remains the vastly predominant word.de Marmelade kann endlich wieder Marmelade heißen July 16, 2017 Welt https://www.welt.de/kultur/article166699824/Marmelade-kann-endlich-wieder-Marmelade-heissen.html August 31, 2021 https://web.archive.org/web/20241214015733/https://www.welt.de/kultur/article166699824/Marmelade-kann-endlich-wieder-Marmelade-heissen.html 14 December 2024
