Alright guys, let´s be fair: An awful lot of people have a really hard time with OUR native language. Not that I blame them ....

Mark Twain tells us why

Always a great reading ...

Nice thread indeed! ;)

Does anybody still know Otto Schenk? In one of his famous records (I am remembering an edition of discs in the early seventies) he performed a couple of poems - I am wondering from Peter Altenberg? - which concern with "Deutsch für Amerikaner" (or something similar).

I had a ripping good time with these poems (as well as with the presentation) and one phrase is unforgettable (imagine an upset African American is complaining about bad behaviour of a Yankee):

"Do you know what yesterday a white man in uniform to my wife said? - Na, how where it with us, little pup?"

Delicious!

and another little joke:

A magician worked on a cruise ship.

The audience was different each week so the magician did the same tricks over and over again.

There was only one problem: The captain's parrot saw the shows each week and began to understand how the Magician did every trick.

Once he understood, he started shouting in the middle of the show, "Look, It’s not the same hat!" or, "Look, he's hiding the flowers under the table!" Or "Hey, why are all the cards the ace of spades?"

The magician was furious but couldn't do anything. It was, after all, the Captain's' parrot.

Then one stormy night on the Pacific, the ship unfortunately sank, drowning almost all who were on board.
The magician luckily found himself on a piece of wood floating in the middle of the sea, as fate would have it ... With the parrot.

They stared at each other with hatred, but did not utter a word.

This went on for a day... And then 2 days. And then 3 days. Finally on the 4th day, the parrot could not hold back any longer and said....

"OK, I give up. Where's the ship?"
Viele Grüße
