Deluge Posted July 17, 2015 Report Share Posted July 17, 2015 Well done! Vielen Danke, ich versuche, mein Deutsch fur* meinen Besuch im August zu verbessern. *assume the umlaut is here Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PraetorDragoon Posted July 17, 2015 Report Share Posted July 17, 2015 Almost correct: The s in gehts is short for es, so it's in your sentence twice. One or the other. Ach so. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dirial Posted July 17, 2015 Report Share Posted July 17, 2015 Guten morgen kerl handlanger . Wie sind wir alle heute? That's about the extent of my German. I suspect it's riddled with mistakes. Morning, MD. How are you? The German wasn't all bad. It's understandable and the mistakes are few, but it's not something anyone would say. It's pretty obviously a translation from English. Vielen Danke, ich versuche, mein Deutsch fur* meinen Besuch im August zu verbessern. *assume the umlaut is here Very good! It's "Vielen Dank" in this case, but the rest was excellent.

That's an interesting phrase to know, one of my friends only sentence in German is "Hallo, heir ist meiner Katze. Sein Name ist "Ingwer Elch." I have no idea why he decided to learn that (Hello this is my cat, His name is Ginger Moose) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MasterDisaster Posted July 17, 2015 Report Share Posted July 17, 2015 I'm good thanks Dirial, considering the total lack of sleep I've been having recently. Yeah I've forgotten a lot of the German I learnt at school. It was a good 10 years ago since I've had to use it in any practical way. Still I got the message across so that's a win for me!

I feel good That is all you really need, I just enjoy the German language. It is very logical and makes a lot more sense then English does Grammatically Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dirial Posted July 17, 2015 Report Share Posted July 17, 2015 Dirial, is this true? Yes. The police will fine you, but you don't go to prison or something. Interestingly, stopping for a shit is not illegal. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deluge Posted July 17, 2015 Report Share Posted July 17, 2015 Well I have a game arranged for tomorrow, if the cards from Abs turn up today (fingers crossed) I'll be using Mei Feng as she will be based this evening. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deluge Posted July 17, 2015 Report Share Posted July 17, 2015 Go, Mei Feng! I like her already as it was a good excuse to get rid of some of my old 40K basing materials, with little to no filing/cutting involved Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dirial Posted July 17, 2015 Report Share Posted July 17, 2015 My wife wanted me to tell you that taking a shit is not per se legal. But if you have diarrhoea and are far from a rest stop, it's acceptable. Just so that no one of you does stupid things. Also, the fine for parking without a good reason is usually around 70 Euro.
