3. bis und Biß
Edited on Tue Feb-19-08 09:10 PM by skater314159
thats "till" and "bite"

Boot und bot --> that's "boat" and verb "offer"

Gäste und Geste --> that's guest and gestures/movements

hast und haßt --> that's verb "have" and verb "hate"


Also, homophone tonguetwister:
In Ulm, um Ulm, und um Ulm, herum. That's in Ulm, around Ulm, and encompassing all Ulm.
