Citation de "MUFFDIVER"

the 1 thing i have never been able to grasp is the backwards german. what i mean is if i say "At the weekend i play football"

In german its "am Wochenende spielte ich Fußball"

So it translates "At the weekend played I football"

I understand when someone is speaking to me but still its baffling.



sorry, but when you translate "at the weekend i play football"
it will be in german "am wochenende spiele ich fussball"
and then you translate it correct back to english.
"spielte" is past. the same past as "played"
the gramatically correct translation of "at the weekend i play football" is "an dem wochenende spiele ich fussball".
the shortcut of "an dem" -> "am" is the same like yours "did not" -> "didn't"

habe ich am meisten an meinem Verstand gehangen

although MUFFDIVER said spielte instead of spiele, i think his point was that the literal translation of the words is the other way round in german as compared to english.

i.e.: at the weekend i play football = english word order

at the weekend play i football = german (/yoda  ;D) word order

but you can now see the massive confusion it is for both german and english to learn the opposite language.

TWIT-FILTER: Option in some offline readers that allows user to make a list of names of people whose messages will not show up, effectively silencing them.

this forum uses perl, not php...

@ muffdriver

i think the phrase you are looking for is: "never change a running system."

or i did not really get your point  ;D
Zim: You're nothing Earth boy! Go home and shave your giant head of smell with your bad self!
Dib: Okay... There's all kinds of things wrong with what you just said.

Aren't there language packs for this forum, that in combination with a small add-on in the userprofile to change the language of the forum text to preference...

Should come in handy :)

this forum is quite old (=>unstable in some places) and the admin does not want to mess around with plugins...

there are plans to upgrade to yabb 2, but...
