If counted well the Germans today can/could watch Dinner for One (The 90th Birthday) 20 times at different times on various TV-channels, and apart from the original in various German dialects, inclusive Schwiizerdütsch (Swiss German). Very strange folks, the Germans. Well, judge for yourself.
Tiny tip-off: Be absolutely determined not to laugh.
Having lived in both D and CH, I have watched Dinner for One more than once. Recollections of D f O are now dim, but I do know that I never found it as humorous as my German pals did.
ReplyDeleteAh, welcome to Omnium, Bea, and Happy New Year.

DeleteLo siento, Paula, no entiendo lo que quiere decir o a qué se refiere. Perdido en la traducción. / Sorry, Paula, I do not understand what you mean / what you are refering to. Lost in translation.
DeleteTu traducción: "No puedo hablar por "los alemanes", pero puedo decir que conozco muchas formas de sonreír, y soy alemana". Mi pregunta iba en esa dirección, ¿si eres alemán o alemana?.😉
ReplyDeleteUff ahora finalmente estoy perdido en la traducción. ;-)
Delete¿Su pregunta es si vivo en Alemania o si soy alemán? - Ambos. ;-)
Si me envía un breve correo electrónico – seanjeating AT gmail DOT com –, estaré encantada de contarle más cosas.
