German term or phrase: eine braungebrannte Badenixe
Sommerzeit, Badezeit. Doch was tun, wenn man sich im Schwimmbad ins kühle Nass stürzen möchte, man aber ein Handy besitzt, welches bekanntlich ja extrem wasserscheu ist? Natürlich kann man es einfach zurücklassen, doch Achtung: Weil Handys von Haus aus sehr kommunikative und naive Gesellen sind, kann es leicht passieren, dass sie in Ihrer Abwesenheit mit einer braungebrannten Badenixe oder einem durchtrainierten Sunnyboy mitgehen und nie mehr gesehen werden.

jolie baigneuse toute bronzée


Explanation:
En fait Nixe= ondine (Génie des eaux dans les mythologies germaniques).

Bade vient de baignade, baigneuse.

Je pense que le sens de ondine est ici: jolie fille ou femme.
