Since a number of you kind folk will be making the trip to blog HQ over the coming months, and since the lovely Rowtheboat has asked me to teach her some German phrases, I, with the help of my ever-willing colleague nittygritty, will be posting a daily German phrase and English translation for your enjoyment and educational betterment.
Please note that these sentence will not be in any way helpful for daily life in German. No 'Wie komme ich am besten zur Bahnhof' here!
Thanks to Row, there will also be rewards for successfully learning phrases - if you manage to use any of the phrases in a logical way while here in Germany, you will win a beer from me. Failure to use any phrases, and you forfeit your underpants.
Oh, and for the record, I deliberately made the design of this blog as utterly obnoxious as possible.
