Author Topic: Wir sind wir "we are who we are"  (Read 2376 times)

It's been a while since I actively spoken it, but I have a few friends in Germany that are helping me get back into the habit. Mostly grammar and remembering words here and there. Hoping it will be enough for when I vacation there next summer. :D

Plastic Bertrand - Ca Plane Pour Moi, Its pretty much impossible to translate, WooOOOOOooo! You are the king of the Devon. Don't forget to set your cat on fire.

It's saying "It plans for me". The way it's using "Plane" is like plan in english, my guess is it's frenglish because usually it's "Planifi(e)", not "plane".

How many of you people took German and how many assume they know what they're talking about? =p Things never translate so clean between languages. It's not so clean. Plus you have to figure in conjugations, tense, grammar....all of which can easily make a word like Panzer mean "Super intercontinental death monkey missile". (obviously not the word, but good enough example)

I'm taking German in high school, I could have went to Berlin this year, but I figure I'll wait 'till my senior year. It's a unique language to know really.

Well it's certainly one of the easiest I have tried to learn. Since English is based off of German to begin with. But I'm kinda biased towards that because I was nearly born in Germany. If some kind of international custody battle over me would not have been an issue, I'm sure I would have.

wir Sind wer wir sind is not proper Douch, there are diffrent slangs. Wir sind wir is Proper german, I have a old national socialist veteran, he can help with german.

Wir sind wer wir sind.


Stupid tongue twister.

What about "Wir sind uns?". We are us/ourselves.

Douch
Whut

Wrong. English mostly came from Dutch.
