Proposition: DU-Gruppe fuer deutschspraechender Leute

[trogdor]

Diese Gruppe wuerde Natur-deutschsprecher und Studenten herzlich willkommen.

This group would enthusiastically welcome native German speakers and students. I fall into the latter category, so if my German is horrible, please excuse me.

1. jawohl

sounds good to me

[chiburb]

4. Just don't let any panhandlers in...

Can you imagine having an "apprehension for your safety" caused by German speakers?

[RPM]

15. chill winston....

let it go.

[chiburb]

16. Nope.

You've sent my Spidey-sense a-tinglin'....

I wonder why your Republican-like posts about panhandlers did that?

Not chillin', not letting it go.

[RPM]

17. your spidey sense needs a-justing

Not a republican at all, but sorry you thought the post was "republican-like"

Perhaps you should take a broader view of democrats. Some Dems may not like panhandlers, particularly when they work hard to create and fund a system that can provide legitimate assistance than a half-baked self-help. There sure were alot who felt that way yesterday)

You may also reconsider your view of republicans. I know a 'pubbie (a staunch "moral values" type, guh) who always gives a her change.

Who's good here? who's bad here? Or is it more complex that the Bush-like good/evil paradigm

2. I think it would be fun

leider ist mein Deutsch so schrecklich, that I would be embarrassed to say much.

[pagerbear]

3. Toll!

Gerne würde ich ihnen auf Deutsch schreiben!

[chiburb]

5. Make sure you visit ATA for the current thinking on

Foreign language groups...

6. I can understand their concerns very well

Moderating a multi-lingual board can be a problem; especially one with the kind of attention DU gets.
The topic came up before, when the country forums were started.

7. Das ist eine gute Idee!

[Aristus]

8. Tut mir leit, schatz, aber 'guten idee' ist korrect. 'Gute idee'

ist ungrammatische. Ich habe dieses idee fur DU-Gruppe auch sehr gern. :thumbsup:

[Kellanved]

9. *grins*

Setzen, sechs!


:hi:

[Aristus]

10. Okay, Kel. How bad was I?

I mean, I corrected her grammar, and probably made some goofs of my own, right?

Good to see you, buddy! :hi:

[Kellanved]

11. good to see ya

And she was correct, that's all I'll say.

[Aristus]

12. Oops! My bad.

Is my face red? :evilfrown: All these years I've been saying it wrong. Guess all my German friends have been laughing up their sleeves at me. Ah well, live and learn, I guess.

[Kellanved]

14. nah

Writing in a foreign language is like trying to nail done a bar of wet soap - anybody who has ever tried it knows that. Your German is perfectly understandable; nobody would laugh about a person struggling with a language.

See, I don't believe people here laugh about my English, despite my obviously lacking grammar.

[freeplessinseattle]

13. Ich verstehe nicht?

and that's about all I remember from my studies, much to my familie's chagrin.

18. Als ich Kind war, haben viele von meinen Verwandten deutsch

gesprochen, und ich habe die Sprache auch auf der Uni studiert, aber seitdem ich angenfangen habe, japanisch zu lernen, habe ich fast alle der deutschen Sprache vergessen. :-(
