Fancy lettuce. What's wrong with bogany iceberg?!


2 months to go :D


Today's German lesson:

Kaffeeklatsch: Informal gathering to talk and drink coffee.
der Suffkopf: Drunken person acting like an idiot.
These words were taken from Spread Germanisms

Since, I'll be going to a German airport, lets learn how to say something airporty...
Airport terminal: das Flughafenabfertigungsgebäude :eyes: Or you can say das Flughafengebäude

Yes, that is true, but fancy lettuce thinks it's the best thing EVER! And it's not.

Yep, I am very excited. Only 9 weeks to go now...9 more shifts at work...9 more times cleaning the floor at work... Actually, it's LESS than 9 weeks :smile:

It is very long. Tell your friends and impress them with your knoweldge of important German vocabulary :wink:

Hey lads! I just learned the German word for Airport terminal. :up:

:left: :right: No, I can't write it down. It's really long and hard to spell. :o:

But I learned it. :whistle:

Hey Kim,
amazing what kind of words you learn for your stay in Germany! How long have you been studying german?

Can we help you out with something? Will you go to a language school (perhaps Goethe-Institut)?

We do really like your Blog,
All the best from San Francisco

Mickey- It could be worse if you didn't know what an airport terminal was... I'm sure you'd get an 'outstanding achievement' award for that too!! :D

Alex- Hi Alex. Thanks for stopping by :smile: If it wasn't for your Youtube, I wouldn't have learnt Kaffeeklatsch and der Suffkopf :wink: I studied German for 4 years in highschool and went on exchange....and so I don't forget it all I still read some German websites, blogs etc. Thanks for the offer; if I need some help with something, I'll let you know :smile: I wont be going to the Goethe Institut (did you know there is one in Sydney?), but instead a university in BW. Where in Germany are you from?
