Sure Bill. We can do it together. I can try to translate those sentences into English and you can correct me. Or we can do it the other way round. What do you reckon?

Good morning Torsten. Both your German and English is far better than mine, so I'll let you do it alone.

When people say that English comes from Germany it's very difficult for me to accept as true. They are so distinct languages. I'm not able to read and understand a sentence written in German. Wink
