Yippee!

Learning a foreign language is so HARD! Do you know they have a different word for almost everything?

Hi rangemaster and Harlan,

But dont be afraid this will be a english forum now and in future. Although eventually will you learn some bavarian slang than it couldt be that it maybe .......:madsmile:

Funny with you, i like it!:beerchug:

All the best

Gunner

Thank you, Gunner. You are too kind. I guarantee your English is much better than my German. What is Bayerisch slang for "friends"?

Hi Bernie,

the bavarian slang is a very special form of the german language. I speak the Allgäu-slang and it is a bit more special. So if you hear a guy speaking that way: "Na gang i scho seit schtunda dur dia gegend und`s leit allat no koi bier it" ( now i am going since hours through the landscape, and i have not getting a beer til now! Wich is really bad for an bavarian:() than you can be sure to hear an Allgäuer-Bavarian.:lol:
So if you like to learn Bavarian let know! But that is really hard!

Best regards

Ulrich ( Total bavarian native)

Good grief!

That certainly isn't the Hoch Deutsch I learned in school! That is as bad as when I went to mass on Easter Sunday in Salzburg, Austria! I thought he was talking Polish, but it was just the local dialect! The only words I understood were "Hoelle" (hell) "Tuefil" (devil) and "Geben Sie Geld" (give money!). Clergy are the same all over the world!:rofl::rofl:

Yes, you`re right with that! Clergy is all the same. BTW i wrote that a comrade want to sell a carbine. At wich things have i to look for that i get an good one? Are there special parts on wich i should have an eye?

Regards

Ulrich

...what do people in Berlin call themselves ? I am refering to Pres. Kennedy's famous donut remark. Thanks , Chris

Gunner,

Wouldn't that be "Ich bin AUS Berlin"? JFK looked nothing like a doughnut to me!:rofl:

Rangemaster;

JFK said " Ich bin ein Berliner!" and i found a translation from the Arab Airlines wich descriped Berlin and translated JFK as follows : I am a doughnut ! So i fell from my stool by reading this. I have to look after the flyer its amazing.

Regards

Gunner
