Greetings from Germany

Sign in to disble this ad
Hi there,
I'm not very much into this "here I am" thing, but I think you should know, that I'm not a native speaker.
Most of you are, I suppose.

So...if my posts frequently are nonsense...never mind...I did my best...

Pete

Welcome, Pete- there are lots of non-primarily-English speakers here, and we all pretty much share the common language of music.

Wow...

Ich komme aus Dortmund. Das liegt im Westen, im Ruhrgebiet.
Jau...diese Seite ist sehr geil. Nicht nur, weil sich's hier um Bässe dreht, sondern auch weil sie mir hilft, mein Englisch nicht einrosten zu lassen...

Translation:

I'm from Dortmund. That's Western-Germany (Ruhrgebiet).
And yes...this site is very cool. Not only because it's about my favourite instrument, but it also will help to not let go my english down the drain...

Thanks again for the warm welcome...

Edit:
I'd appreciate some corrections, if my postings are hard to understand...
I surely don't get everthing right, what people are writing here, and because of that some of my postings may sound strange...

Gern geschehen,Junge! Ich verbrachte mal den Sommer 1984 in CH als Wechselarbeiter bei der Rivella AG (dort spricht man ueberhaupt kein deutsch! lach). Damals nahmen wir die Gelegenheit,die BRD und auch die DDR zu besuchen.

Wenn du Yahoo Messenger hast bitte gruesse mich mal,oder?

Wilkommen auf die TB,lieber ZBass! Ganz toll,dass du auch was deutsch kannst.

Stimmt schon:hier wird nur Bass gesprochen.

Talkbass is the single best bass resource/forum out there,IMHO. You`ll love this place.

Ah, ich sprache Deutsch auch. Aber lerne ich die Sprache nur in der Schule. Spielst du "upright" oder "electric"? Hahaha. Ah... Ich habe keine Deutsch fuer eins or zwei Monate gesprochen. Es tut mir Leid.

Translation??:

I speak german too! But I just learned the language in school. Do you play upright or electric? Hahaha. I haven't spoken german in one or two months. I'm sorry.



(I felt left out and felt like I had to contribute to the german speaking TalkBass festivities)

Viel Glueck!

Hallo Steph,
Ich spiele "Brettbass" aber ich würde sicher einen Kontrabass kaufen, wenn sich die Gelegenheit ergäbe...ich kann warten.

Du hattest Deutsch in der Schule? Ungewöhnlich in den US of A, nicht wahr?
Nebenbei...du kannst die Umlaute simulieren, indem du ein "e" dem Ausgangsvokal hinzufügst.
Zum Beispiel "üben" kann zu "ueben" werden. Sieht blöd aus, ist aber der Weg, wie Leute mit amerikanischen Tastaturen sich hier behelfen...


Hi Steph,
I'm playing "electric", but I sure want to buy a doublebass, if there's a chance for a good deal...I can wait.

You had german in school? Not very common in the US, is it?
By the way...you can kind of simulate the "umlauts" by adding an "e".
For example "üben" (to practice) could be written as "ueben".
Does surely look silly, but it's often the way, people with american keyboards are typing...

I really heard a lot of descriptions of our language...but "beautiful" is not the word, i have in mind...

Someone said:
"German should be put to the dead languages...because only the dead have the time to learn it."



Edit:
It was mark Twain....and here's the quote:

"...it ought to be gently and reverently set aside among the dead languages, for only the dead have time to learn it."
