Maybe "Ich bin ein Mann und liebe Frauen"? Is that what you want to say or do you mean "ladies" rather than just "women"? _________________ Test Of English for International Communication TOEIC Preparation & TOEIC Vocabulary |

Hi Storm,
Do you have any proof of this statement ? _________________ Test Of English for International Communication TOEIC Preparation & TOEIC Vocabulary |

Hi Ralf,
This sounds like a quotation from a famous poet or even philosopher. Do you have any examples that prove the veracity of this statement?
Thanks, Torsten _________________ Test Of English for International Communication TOEIC Preparation & TOEIC Vocabulary |

is the "u" in "und" more like the vowel phoneme in "could/would/should" or the phoneme in "noon/toon/June"?
is it oond or und (rhyming with "could")?
also, is the "d" almost the same as a "t"?
unt? _________________ Billie Jean is not my lover. Hee. |

also, if you guys don't mind -- i've never taken a german class, so this will be news to me -- could one of you show me the conjugations (at least present tense) of the verb "to be"?
I think I know two of them:

Yes Tom, the "u" in "und" is very close to the sound in "could" and the "d" is pronounced as a "t". Does your boss speak German too? You should ask for a raise since you are improving your German... _________________ Test Of English for International Communication TOEIC Preparation & TOEIC Vocabulary |
