German humor: English for runaways - Englisch für Fortgeschrittene. Posted on 20.
Aug, 2012 by Sandra in Language, Uncategorized English is a world language and it is the first foreign language Germans learn in school. Thus, most Germans can speak and understand English to a certain degree. Some Germans even make fun of the English language by spoofing it. The spoof is that they translate German compound words or phrases word by word. I have no idea if other speech communities do also make fun of English like we Germans. No matter whether you are a native speaker of English, I think that the following examples will give you some insight into the German language. 1. The German word “fortgeschritten” (means “advanced” or “progressed” in English) is a very figurative term – just like the English word “runaway”, which is “der Ausreißer / die Ausreißerin” in German – and could depict a person who stepped further from where he or she has/had been. 2. to be heavy on the woodway – schwer auf dem Holzweg sein – to be totally barking up the wrong tree.

German, like any other language, has particular words and expressions that can be used in more than one way. These include the short but tricky Wörter known as “particles” or “fillers.” I call them “small words that can cause big problems.” German words such as aber, auch, denn, doch, halt, mal, nur, schon and even ja look deceptively simple, but are often a source of errors and misunderstanding for even intermediate learners of German. The main source of problems is the fact that each one of these words can have multiple meanings and functions in different contexts or situations. Take the word aber. Another characteristic that such particle-word examples make clear is that it is often difficult to translate the German word into an English word. 1000 Pitfalls by Henry Strutz devotesseveral pages to particles in German.
To illustrate, let's use another example, the often over-used mal. Ehrenfels: Ueber Gestaltqualitaeten. The Local - Germany's news in English. Wueste Welle. Only known recording of Hitler speaking in an unofficial tone : Thor Damen.
