Mackem, Makem or Mak'em a nickname for residents of and people from Sunderland, a city in North East England. It is also a name for the local dialect and accent (not to be confused with Geordie); and for a fan, of whatever origin, of Sunderland A.F.C. It has been used by (a proportion of) the people of Sunderland to describe themselves since the 1980s, prior to which it was mainly used in Tyneside as a disparaging exonym. Prior to the 1980s, the people of Sunderland were known as Geordies, in common with people from Tyneside. An alternative name for a Mackem (except in the sense of a football supporter) is a Wearsider.

  • Ein Mackem (auch Makem, Mak'em) ist ein Einheimischer von Sunderland im Nordosten Englands. Auch der lokale Sunderland-Dialekt wird so genannt. Der Begriff wurde von Seeleuten im 19. Jahrhundert in Newcastle eingeführt, fand aber erst Ende der 1980er, Anfang der 1990er allgemeine Verbreitung. Er stammt vom Ausdruck „we mak ’em, you tak ’em“, der sich auf die in Sunderland gebauten Schiffe bezieht; inzwischen gibt es in Sunderland allerdings keine Schiffbauindustrie mehr. Die Schreibweise „mak“ drückt aus, dass der hochenglische Diphthong in „make“ in nordenglischen Dialekten ein Monophthong ist. (de)

  • Mackem is een bijnaam voor een inwoner van de Engelse stad Sunderland. Hoewel de naam volgens velen al minstens tientallen jaren in zwang is, dateert de vroegste geschreven bron van 1988. De uitdrukking werd oorspronkelijk als scheldwoord gebruikt door de inwoners van het nabijgelegen Newcastle upon Tyne maar is inmiddels door Sunderlanders als geuzennaam geadopteerd en dan vooral door supporters van de lokale voetbalclub: Sunderland AFC.
