Some more Bier and Wurst
Hi!
I'm a german fan of Schalke04 and have been fancying Bolton since they played Bayern München in the UEFA-Cup, last but not least because "Habsi" means "Got 'em" in german. Seems ridiculous, but I've read studies that say the hardest fanships sprout of the most stupid reasons. Can't object.
However, I'm sending greetings from Krautland and hope to find a funny lot here to discuss Premier League and Bundesliga as well.
Glückauf

I quite like 'Welche farber hapt der Schrank?'Puskas wrote:Wilkommen.
Is this a chance to practise random German phrases?

Tchuss.
But I really meant this........

Welcome, Fraulein. You just made me laugh with that response... I failed German at secondary school with the lowest possible grade, so can't remember enough for you to translate. Glad you did better in English. Enjoy.Fräulein wrote:Indeed, it is, please go on. I'm afraid I can't answer all your questions with regard to content, but I guess the cupboard is blue and white just like mine and the cats, oh, they really got me worried, are they still not home yet?Puskas wrote:

Surely that should be "aber ein", since "man" in that context means "one" as in "It's time for ones afternoon tea".enfieldwhite wrote:Try this one Fraulein.

Whereas in the context of the song, it's one as in the number...
I think.
But I'm not very good on with German. French, I can manage - "Ou sont les chats?"
And a bit of Spanish - "Donde estan los gatos?".
But that's it.

Listen. If the only thing you can pick me up on is that, then I'm doing pretty well, no?Puskas wrote:Surely that should be "aber ein", since "man" in that context means "one" as in "It's time for ones afternoon tea".enfieldwhite wrote:Try this one Fraulein.

Well, I'm not sure about the use of "Das Geben" for the present continuous tense.enfieldwhite wrote: Listen. If the only thing you can pick me up on is that, then I'm doing pretty well, no?

But it may be correct. And if so, where should it go in the sentence? Second? At the end? Or just where you put it - it looks to be a noun there....
As I said, I don't know German.
