4. eigentlich ist es schon später Nachmittag
Der Morgen war ganz gut, ich hatte allerdings hoffnungslos verschlafen und war deswegen etwas gehetzt. Konnte nur einen Becher Kaffee in der U-Bahn frühstücken.

Und, hast Du einen guten morgen?

Guten Morgen Amerika :hi:

That reminds me: did you ever watch "Staplerfahrer Klaus" ? I know that the DVD still isn't released in the US, but I've heard that it's pretty popular anyway.

15. Hey Kel
:hi:

Nope I haven't seen "Spaplerfahrer Klaus". Never heard of it. But I wrote the name down and will go looking for it. I have a connection for weird German flicks that aren't released in the US.

Now the vitally important question - is it porn? ;-)

17. I'm SO not the person to ask.
The extent of my German is counting to 10 and screaming "Nein". :evilgrin:

I just think it's a really sexy sounding language and there are some lovely people on DU who feed my addiction from time to time. :-)

37. Sonnenschein
Years ago there was a law firm in Chicago called Sonnenschein, Carlin Nath & Rosenthal. My friend who worked there would call up another firm saying, "This is Sonnenschein in Chicago," and they'd crack back, "Oh yeah? Well, it's raining in New York!"

I was in the "little league" and the "minor league" for your team. But I got a better offer from the other team when it came time to play for real in the "major league".

You're sweet! Thanks.

42. hmm
Nach viele Jahren mit keine Deutsch im Kopf, Ich habe hier gelernt that Ich verstehen viel besser dann Ich geschreiben oder gesprechen kann.

I have a feeling there are some grammatical errors there.

I used to have a book about the characters Max und Moritz. Gad, that was fun to read aloud. Spunky German consonants!

Ha, I've found it online. Here's part:

In der schönen Osterzeit,
Wenn die frommen Bäckersleut'
'Viele süße Zuckersachen
Backen und zurechte machen,
Wünschten Max und Moritz auch
Sich so etwas zum Gebrauch.

Doch der Bäcker, mit Bedacht,
Hat das Backhaus zugemacht.

Also will hier einer stehlen,
Muß er durch den Schlot sich quälen.

Ratsch! Da kommen die zwei Knaben
Durch den Schornstein, schwarz wie Raben.

Puff! Sie fallen in die Kist',
Wo das Mehl darinnen ist.

Da! Nun sind sie alle beide
Rundherum so weiß wie Kreide.

Aber schon mit viel Vergnügen
Sehen sie die Brezeln liegen.

Knacks!! - Da bricht der Stuhl entzwei;
Schwapp!! - Da liegen sie im Brei.

Ganz von Kuchenteig umhüllt
Stehn sie da als Jammerbild.

Gleich erscheint der Meister Bäcker
Und bemerkt die Zuckerlecker.

Eins, zwei, drei! - Eh' man's gedacht,
Sind zwei Brote draus gemacht.

In dem Ofen glüht es noch -
Ruff!! - damit ins Ofenloch!

Ruff!! - man zieht sie aus der Glut;
Denn nun sind sie braun und gut.

jeder denkt, die sind perdü!
Aber nein! - Noch leben sie!

Knusper, knasper! - wie zwei Mäuse
Fressen sie durch das Gehäuse;

Und der Meister Bäcker schrie:
"Ach herrje! Da laufen sie!"

Dieses war der sechste Streich,
Doch der letzte folgt sogleich.

39. Two and a half years of high school German wasted
because the teacher was a jerk who had it in for me - and yes, I was a brat, but he really was a jerk - and I dropped the class in the third year. I can still understand some of what I read, but I can't respond with much more than "Ich weiss nicht." Obviously, Fraulein Hogan has not been paying attention. Teenage trauma!

Ich habe die Nase voll! Du hast Rosinen im Kopf!

I hope that was at least remotely grammatically correct....I haven't studied German for years, but I've been taking Dutch for the last five years, which has really done a number on my German skills, plus my computer refuses to do umlauts on the Internet!
