23 Jan 04 - 05:26 AM (#1099474) Subject: RE: BS: What is the question? From: MudGuard The question is "If the answer is Chicken Sukiyaki, what is the question?" ;-) "Chicken Sukiyaki" is the answer to many questions. For example: What did MudGuard not have for dinner last night? What did MudGuard not have for breakfast yesterday? What will MudGuard not have for breakfast tomorrow? ... Perhaps if you are more specific, the answer er the question could be more specific... |

23 Jan 04 - 06:59 AM (#1099543) Subject: RE: BS: What is the question? From: MudGuard Micca, that can't be. Either it is pronounced English, then it is nine, double-u (or in a German way of writing it "accoustically") Nein dabbeljuuh Or it is pronounced German, then it is Neun we. "Neun" is pronounced very different from "nein". German "eu" is pronounced like "oy" in the English word "boy". German "ei" is pronounced like "i" in the English word "nine". so we have "noyne" as opposed to "nine". Not very similar. |

23 Jan 04 - 07:50 AM (#1099572) Subject: RE: BS: What is the question? From: Micca It is if you speak Deut-lish (a synthesis of english-german,like Franglais) it would go "Bitte schon, "Is the name Valter spelled with a V" "Nein( pronounced"english as Nine) double-u" |

|
23 Jan 04 - 08:08 AM (#1099583) Subject: RE: BS: What is the question? From: MudGuard In German, Deutlish is called Denglisch. pole is pronounced without the e at the end in English, Pole (the German word for a man from Poland) is pronounced as two syllables - the e is spoken. vaulter is pronounced with the first vowel sounding almost like the German vowel o (not quite, but similar - almost like the au in English "Paul"), but Walter is pronounced with an a as in English word "far" (not as long though). So this example too does not really work... |
