NJR Something to laugh... Archived Message Posted by matze on July 25, 2011, 3:21 am After Alina has got me with the tudor/tutor thing here my self-imposed 'punishment', namly reciting and writing ten times the following: A TUTOR, WHO TOOTED THE FLUTE, TRIED TO TUTOR TWO TOOTERS TO TOOT. SAID THE TWO TO THE TUTOR, "IS IT HARDER TO TOOT OR TO TUTOR TWO TOOTERS TO TOOT?" And for more understanding of non-native speakers here a joke I read in an English (!) magazin. This should explain our difficulties with the English language (): 'Let´s face it: English is a stupid language. There is no egg in eggplant; no ham in hamburger, and neither pine nor apple in pineapple. English muffins were not invented in England and French fries not in France. A guinea pig is neither from Guinea nor is it a pig. When the stars are out they are visible, but when the lights are out they are invisible. And if a vegetarian eats vegetables, what on earth does a humanitarean eat?' (I love English language, really, I do! ) Message Thread: NJR Something to laugh... - matze July 25, 2011, 3:21 am Ich bin ein Berliner... - Marie July 25, 2011, 3:27 am "I am a donut", at least that is - gaylec July 27, 2011, 8:33 am And do you know why Eddie Izzard - matze July 28, 2011, 11:27 am Thanks for the explanation, - LauraP July 28, 2011, 3:19 pm Re: Ich bin ein Berliner... - matze July 25, 2011, 4:04 am   Searching
