Mein Deutsch ist rostig, aber ich lebte dort für 8 Jahre - my german is rrusty, but I did live there for 8 years.
Wo im Deutschland ? Berlin oder Koln.. Aber. Aber .. Ich .. Die Wacht um Danube. Verstehen Sie Mein freund ?
Great BG. You spent great time abroad. As for me, German is my fourth language as a translator. I opted for this language at college long decades ago. I didn't use it ever since. Maybe I should have opted for Spanish instead. Anyway I still remember some words or sentences. Und Bruter BG. Danke schon. Karl Ha Ha
I've lived all over the World, but mostly in Europe. I guess you can say I'm a Europhile, but German is my only other language apart from English. Thanks for letting me speak (type) some German. I love speaking it. Hopefully I will be travelling there later this year.
I lived there for a couple of years, forgotten most of the little German that I knew. They do have some VERY long words.
It would be interesting to know what other languages us Ancient CoinTalkers know. I am also fluent in Spanish (son of native speakers), but I speak it better than I write it. I also have taught myself some random Latin and German words and phrases. And I knew some French but like my Latin and German I just now remember some words and phrases of it (like the numbers).
You guys are lucky I am not a German language teacher LOL Seriously, it's great to see so many CT folks speak German. Echt klasse, ich bin begeistert. Ihr seid super
Sorry to throw this in randomly, but since there are some German speakers here and this was from a coin description that I haven't managed to get a translation for : what does Prägeschwächen mean?
Lol... Very quick, thanks! That's what I suspected when I broke it up into two and fed it through Google translate but I still wasn't sure when I looked at a few coins that the word had been used on.
Ya gotta love a language where words can be combined to make a single word. Weak strike is the translation.
