Yeah those card from school, which you can fake easilly. :rolleyes: I have one on which I'm 21. But they didn't accept it. They do in Switzerland...

Too bad.. you have to show you're identity card everywere nowadays :/

Not here...in Switzerland they accept all kind of card with your date of birth on it. :D

Wow :D Good to know.. I'll remember that when I'm on vacation in Switzerland next month :P

Yeah do that, and if they don't wanna accept it, act like you don't understand German. Many people can't speak English...

:D

 

I don't think I have to act like I don't speak German .. :P

Some Dutch man told me he had to learn German, so I thought that's normal in Holland...

Ticketmaster....it sucks so bad.

Well we have to learn it in school, but if someone asks me anything in German, my mind is completely locked at once, like a big blackout.. it's awful :(

Wie bitte?? :)

Aber ich kann jetzt ein bisschen ins Deutsch schreiben, aber sprechen geht's gar nicht..

Ich spreche viel mehr als ich schreibe!! :)

Mit es verstanden von Deuts habe ich jetzt kein Problem ;)

Ist das eine Mischung von Deutsch und Käse-sprache :) ??

Flauskessel-Deutsch :P like we use to call it overhere

german :confused: - i 'learnt' that at school, i can understand a tiny bit

It's a lot like Dutch, so I can understand it, but speaking it.. ahem :rolleyes:

how did you learn english?

What's that?? :huh:

how did you learn english?

 

School/watching movies/reading books

I'm not very good at it yet, but that'll come ;)

 

And mr Squared: it's dutch pronounced on a german way, because german and dutch look a lot like each other some dutch people just try to pronounce a dutch word like german.. just like the word 'flauskessel', it's from the Dutch word 'fluitketel' but it doesn't mean anything in German..

not very good .. i think you're doing great talking and understanding English ... i'd never be able to do that with German or Dutch

Thanks for the explanation! ;)

But english isn't hard to pick up.. Did you ever see a Dutch movie on tv? Even I hardly do here in the Netherlands :P Or did you ever see a German book in the book store?

It's not very weird that you're not able to speak those languages fluently.. :)

*It's very impressive that programmes go out in English on Dutch TV. Doesn't happen in Germany. Doesn't matter to me, though - I've got SKY!!

We in Holland like to read subtitles instead of listening to stupid voice-overs :P
