This is intended as a slightly tongue-in-cheek self-help guide for English speakers who have never quite managed to speak English since coming to Germany.   I'll kick off the listing:   Beamte(r) - officer / official Anmeldung - registration Steuererklärung - tax return

  Nor in Frankfurt. And I bet a whole lot of people could do this too, and get fitter and less stressed.And richer, I remember car insurance.

  Either that, or the traditional parties, or the EU. Something has to give.

 

 

  That's called a medicine cabinet.

  I never paid attention to this branch of German vocabulary before, but does it mean something like "f@rt face"?

 

  The UK has lost another type of status in the last 3 years too, same kind of thinking behind that.

  Sink cabinet? Like there's gonna be a cabinet over the sink?   "Exit to the left in the direction of travel" - yeah, thanks, I was about to jump out on the left in the direction we came from.

This is not even trying to stay on topic but:   What's the English translation of "wie heisst..."? "How do you call...", right?

  If you're able to become German + Guyanese why not do that? A British passport is about as good as a German one for visa free travel right now, and after Brexit the German one will be better.

 

 

  You know I meant we actually covered it (so so badly) back when I played in a band though right?!

  Nice work!   I went to see TV Smith live a couple of months back to celebrate becoiming officially Germany.   He's still going strong, rocking it just him and his guitar. It's the attitude that counts

  Used to butcher / sing this back in my rockin days

  Spoken English in general seems to be a huge trash fire these days. Any UK podcast I listen to, especially mainstream news, parliament etc. is just a torrent of scrappy, unconnected partial sentences. As for the conceptual content, well...

  It's getting harder and harder to get literal calques on vinyl so I'd play 'em as loud as you want. YOLO

  No need to get highly-strung.

  Wait... what?
