What does donner und blitzen mean in English?

These words are German and Dutch, which I think you must already know, and they have only a colloquial meaning in English in reference to a pair of Santa Clause's reindeer that go by those names. The meanings in German and Dutch as far as I understand are: Donner (Also "Donder" or "Dunder") = Thunder and Blitzen Also "Blixem" and "Bliksem") = Lightning So it pretty much just means: Donner and Blitzen. yeah.

What do the names of Santas reindeers Donner and Blitzen mean?

Two of the reindeer names, Donner/Donder and Blitzen, are often the source of confusion, misspelling, and misinformation. The short facts are these: Donner/Donder and Blitzen were named ''Dunder'' and ''Blixem'' (the Dutch words for ''thunder'' and ''lightning'') in the original printing of "A Visit From St. Nicholas." In reprints of the poem, the names became ''Donder'' and ''Blixen,'' then ''Donder'' and ''Blitzen'' (the latter being German for ''lightning''). By the time Johnny Marks wrote "Rudolph," it was ''Donner'' and ''Blitzen'' (possibly because ''Donder'' was musically awkward). See Snopes.com for a thorough discussion.
