Hi
I was reading your blog about learning german and wanted to comment on it, but the comment section ws closed already. Why do you close so soon? The best comments come after a few months, you know. How else are you going to learn about all the great sites that offer the newest of viruses and so on?
Anyway, did you know that in Germany, when they interview some austrian on tv, they use subtitles?
When we were in Vienna for a short trip, I asked the clerk in our hotel for a key to “zimmer vierhundert dreiundzwanzig ” and he goes: vie bitte? In the meantime another patron comes and says woijfdsunvoriz, and gets his key. As I was telling this later to my grandma, who was fluent in german, she was laughing so hard, she cried. Offended, I asked did I mispronounced something, and she said, no you said it perfectly, that’s why it so funny. This is Austria.
See, viruses and unfunny anecdotes.
Awesome story! Sorry about the closed comments, but spammers use open comments to go back and fill my comment queue with hundreds or thousands of viagra, porn, and real estate scams. Thanks for the hilarious story.
