I love listening to the langauge, and it's on my list of langauges to learn before I die. You giving lessons Tip?

You better learn to roll your R's. German sounds absolutely terrible when spoken by most Americans I know. But then, you need to learn to roll your R's for many languages, Thai included.

Lesson Number 1: "Ich bin ein Arschloch." That means you're a very nice guy. How much can you pay???

BTW, what's your interest in learning your family roots? I tried tracing mine back awhile ago and got pretty far. Hit a roadblock when I got to this couple named Adam and Eve . . .

I am a history major in college, why not learn about my bloodlines part in the great human drama?

No Tipp, that's when you need to stop!

Something more, Tiggy?

Well, according to some people the next level would be some Mr & Mrs Monkey...

I can throw poop pretty well.

I think you have to work a bit more on your German>>>English translation Tip........

You're a naughty boy; Ein sehr frecher Bube !

LaoPo

So, Tip was trying to get me in trouble, eh?

Tip wrote: "Ich bin ein Arschloch".... Maybe that's what he is ?

But, every German would laugh when you would say that and NO German would be offended....on the contrary.

Well, that's okay, everyone can use a laugh.

I studied Spanish in high school for 2 years and German in college for 2 years. I just could not get the knack of trilling my R's, think my tongue isn't designed right. But some could put their tongue in position and roll the R's for what seemed indefinitely.

But with Thai, I can do it better then the above 2 languages - but not in all instances.
