Ten phrases for American fans in Germany Barkeep another beer, please
Barkeep ein anderes Bier, bitte. Good morning. What time does the stadium open? Guten Morgen. Welche Zeit öffnet der Stadium? Where is the nearest pub? Wo ist der nächste Stab? Excuse me. I believe you are in our seats. Entschuldigen Sie mich. Ich glaube, daß Sie in unseren Sitzen sind. You look shorter sititng down. Sie schauen kürzeres sititng unten. Portugal underestimated us in 2002 as well. Portugal unterschätzte uns 2002 außerdem. I thought they weren't supposed to mention the war. Ich dachte, daß sie nicht den Krieg erwähnen sollten. If you're ever at an MLS game, your first beer is on me. Wenn Sie überhaupt an einem MLS Spiel sind, ist Ihr erstes Bier auf mir. I hope the referees correctly call hand balls in the penalty area. Ich hoffe, daß die Referenten richtig Handkugeln im Strafenbereich benennen. Seriously, the LA Galaxy play at a higher level than Leverkusen. Ernsthaft das LA Galaxiespiel auf einem höheren Niveau als Leverkusen. __________________

The only German I used was "dunkel" to make sure to get the dark beer. That's all that mattered. 🙂

Well done. :goodstuff
A German would understand most of the translations. However, do not say "ein anderes Bier" if you want another beer. Better order "noch ein Bier" - otherwise the barkeeper simply could exchange the beer in front of you. A pub is a "Kneipe" or "Gaststaette" or "Restaurant" and the referee is der "Schiedsrichter." And, seriously, Leverkusen play at a higher level than the LA Galaxy. 🙄 ![]() For more translations check out this thread ... ... http://www.das-fanmagazin.de/forum/thread.php?threadid=16372&page=2 | |||||
