| My favorite German word is "klapperschlange". No, its has nothing to do with an STD. I was watching a German video tape of Escape From New York, and the title was changed to Der Klapperschlange, which means The Rattlesnake. -Keith (22 years ago, 12-Jun-04, to lugnet.general, lugnet.trains, lugnet.build.schleim, lugnet.events.1000steine-land)

| (...) When living there for a few years, "Biergarten", especially when used in a one word sentence ending in a questionmark was always music to my ears. (I was in my dark ages then). "Spielzeugausverkauf" would now be a close second. Paul (22 years ago, 11-Jun-04, to lugnet.general, lugnet.trains, lugnet.build.schleim, lugnet.events.1000steine-land)
