I would speak more of it if my stupid teacher had given us a bigger vocabulary, and quit worryin about how we could take 5 words and be able to keep a conversation up with it...

our teacher taught us to curse in German... she doesnt care if we curse in German, but we get ISS for english cursing...

LOL, same thing here. In elglish class and spanish class (havent spoken spanish for 2 years sorry) teachers taught us to curse but if we cursed in french (our main language) we can get in trouble

the thing with German is that everything sounds naughty... for example

wie geht's es ihnen? ich kann dich nicht verstehen! ich bin ein Bi

of course, i could say something like:

Der Teufel soll dich holen

in which case you would want to delete the post (jk)

of course, not all German sounds mean... theres nothing mean about the word "gift" is there? (actually, that means "poison" in english... we had a good laugh over that in German class)

yeah... Frau Malone wanted to get the 8th graders to sign up for German when they got to high school, so we went and recorded a heavy metal music video... i ran the sound board and lights...

we went and presented it to the 8th graders, and one pipes up "so, whats a 'German Schei
