Hi
There are a few germans on this forum and i just want to ask you for some common words and stuff in german.
It would be great if you could tell me some.
Phrases that would be handy:
Do you speak English?
Can you tell me where the toilets are?
Where is ......?
Thanks
Oh and what is the drinking age in gemany?

Es ist das Google Street View LKW. Lassen Sie den Stein es.
Die fetten Amerikaner müssen draußen bleiben Ihres Unternehmens. Es ist schon 60 Jahre und sie haben immer noch nicht verlassen. Schlimmer als meine Schwiegermutter.
Bist du sicher, haben von Französisch unten in letzter Zeit wreaking.
Ich spreche Englisch, aber ich bin nicht Amerikaner. Bitte tu mir nicht weh.
A mate's dad and his team were told, just before being dropped behind enemy lines, to say "Haben Sie ein Messer, um Butter mein Brot mit bitte?" if caught as they'll be taken for Germans.
I think it was one of those "Give them something to think about so they don't realise the gravity of the situation they're about to get into" moments
Go back in time........
Take German as a subject.......
Pay attention...............................
Problem solved

That only works if you have a good German teacher.
We had an excellent teacher at our school, unfortunately she left the term before we were due to start German.
They replaced her with a native speaker who just couldn't teach.
The first year we were told everything is "Ich bin" to say I am, then she denied she'd told us that in the second year and claimed she'd always told us about "Mir ist" (apparently it's important as to which one you use when you're saying you're hot).

Entschuldigung mein freund.
We don't have a german teacher, our choices were frence or spanish. Neither of which i would like to study for GCSE.
I don't mind frence as i was probably go to france but i wouldn't like to go to spain.
Thanks EbiEre! I will learn them, i just hope i get the pronunciation right.
The reason i didn't use google translate is that its more reliable to ask someone that speaks german.
Chances are you'll find that many of the locals speak better english than many english people!
Guten tag - good day
Guten abend - good evening
Guten nacht - good night
Danke - thanks
Omg people in my school are going on wednesday :O

Just listen to Rammstein and you'll learn funny phrases like "sex ist eine schlacht, liebe ist krieg". How useful it'll be is uncertain, but at least you'll listen to some cool music.

Drinking age for beer: 16. Hard liquor: 18. Try these ones:
"Halb betrunken ist rausgeschmissenes Geld"
(half drunk is a waste of money)
"Zwei Bier, bitte!"
(two beers, please)
"Sag mal, wann geht'n eigentlich das Oktoberfest los?"
(Hey, when does Oktoberfest start?) <-- Haha, just messing around, don't use this one, people will label you a clueless tourist if you ask that in Berlin
"Wo kann ich mir eine fesche Lederhosen kaufen?"
(Where can I get a sweet pair of Lederhosen?)
"Hallo! Ich bin (or: ich heisse) XX. Ich komme aus England"
(Hello! My name is XX. I'm from England)
... hmm, not thinking of anything particularly useful at the moment. Let me know if you need more translations!

Thank you
Michael Jäger
isnt it suppossed to be a good thing???
sorry i dont know much about the things happenning there and if my opinion is stupid
but censoring adult content from internet is a good thing i guess
Hallo Michael,
as your neighbour and constant reader of www.heise.de/tp I strongly support this petition (if only I could)
Anyway: It's down, maybe "von der Lügen" already locked it
i dont worry if they wanna censor it, i will go online with a proxy from USA
german:
macht mir nichts aus wenn die regierung alles zensieren möchte geh ich einfach mit nem proy aus der USA online
I cant decide by myself about this
I have some good points but... every head has a whole world inside:
1.- We are all (almost) adults... if you want to see naked chicks... sex or whatever you want... go to the streets get a hooker or two! let them do what ever you want, the internet has been made a big xplotion on porn, the hiden cluster for sex adicts... I see porn of course! im a man! that likes it... but think about kiddos your children... others children has their mind so open to this things!!!! lets stop this somehow... I believe many times that the education inside the family was vital... but what about the tiem they are outside? is almost the biggest part of the day... be smart guys.
2.- If this is a step forward versus the votes of a candidate... let them pass trough it will end... by its own heavy weight.
3.- If this is a rule closing sites that never shows porn or violence... is a big mistake to go upon a contitutional trouble! its hard! its dangerous!
BUT
as you can see... im not German so your country is "yours"...
BTW: In swedden I remember... a friend's internet account was censored so he cant enter to pirate bay... think about it... XDA.
err btw i am fourteen
and i watch porn too
For those of you who have several archives "parked" on RapidShare, there's a new terms of use coming into effect.
[Deutsche Version unten]
Dear Customer ########,
we hereby inform you of a modification regarding the file inactivity regulations for Collector's accounts. The guaranteed storage time of a file after the last download (or after the upload, if a file has never been downloaded) will be lowered to 60 days on January 1st, 2010.

If you do not agree to the Terms of Use, you are entitled to cancel the contractual relationship within a time limit of four weeks as of receipt of this notification. Should you not make use of your right of cancellation, the alterations are presumed to be accepted and become an effective integral part of the contract.

Guess it's time to jump ship to a new file sharing website?
Torrents are always nice way to share data.

I agree -- in the last 5 days - I havent been able to download anything from RS - alway shows that there are no free DL spots - ALWAYS
Use dropbox for small files .. its a great. [ It is used for syncing files across multiple devices ] but you can also put up a file and give it public access.
No issues choosing a different file hosting service providing that the Terms Of Use isn't similar to that of RapidShare or HotFile - i.e. files removed after X number of days.
The issue however, is that within a month or so, all of the XDA members who have used RapidShare to post archives such as ROM's, kitchens, .CAB's, tools, etc. will see these files removed ... which translates to dead links on the forum and WIKI.
In short;
If a member has files they wish to keep, they may want to download them before RS removes them.
If a member needs files/tools posted in a thread from a member that isn't online frequently, now's the time to download them before they are removed.
Cheers,
Cheers for the info, is it really for off topic though?
German:
Es gibt ja viele Modelle Welches ist das beste in der handhabung so wie auch in der bedienung welches gefällt euch am besten ich frage weil ich gerne mir ein neues zulegen möchte und herrausfinden möchte welches am besten ist
Englisch:
would like there are so many models Which is the best to use as well as in the easy-which pleases you best, I ask because I want herrausfinden you grow me a new one and which is best
"which is the best" thread...
Without stating how the device is going to be used this question is moot and open to any suggestion.
Not everybody is going to add the same value towards the same device due to the subjectiveness of the subject "which is the best".
That is why in most cases these kind of threads are being closed before a flamewar begins..
It would be better to make a list on how you are going to us the device (really use, not wanting to play with once and forget it's on there). How does your future device score at these points?
Do you want the following:
Want a big screen or small?
WM or Android?
Keyboard or not?
How much do you want to spend?
How much do you care for a camera, or two?
Etc etc..
If you know the answers to these questions you know which device you want to buy (or absolutely NOT want to buy ).
Or at least have a smaller pool to choose from..
Hope you'll find a nice device,
Regards,
EqX
Hello xda community!
I would like to share a term paper I wrote recently. The focus is on the comparison of android and the iOS. However, it is not a technical report and that is exactely the reason why I have chosen a more market-oriented perspective.
Any comment is welcome but please remember that English is not my first language!

Very impressive paper, nice work
Nice work with the paper. All the best with Uni.
The paper is ok. I would cut down on the use of "therefore" and "furthermore". I counted 10 of the former and 5 of the latter. Therefore it's about 2.14 of the above words per page and furthermore it gets old by about page 5.
Now, after one month since publishing my now outdated paper, I would like to thank you for your comments (especially Zopaa who did actually count words ) and your interest!
Moin hast du das PDF auch in deutsch?
nein, war für eine Lehrveranstaltung mit Englisch als Arbeitssprache...
in English: this paper is only available in English!

Off-Topic thread is Off-Topic
There is a forum for non-phone related subjects, you would be far better off posting this in there - although a Mod will probably move it from here to there, and then another Mod there will probably lock the thread as being redundant anyway. If you just want to go and chat have a look around OT and I'll see you there.

I was in the US Marines at the time. I was with the 31st MEU, we were the ones that were the first responders back in '06 when that mud slide hit Leyte.
Also the Filipino Marines will literally trade anything for a Gerber Multi-tool, lol. I have like 3 full sets of Fil-Mar uniforms that I traded one guy a Gerber for.
Oh and I will NEVER again try Balut. I took one bite and even drunk couldn't hold it down, lol.
