German words of the day: ironic edition
7th Mar 2010 |
My last post was the slow edition, and then my teacher picked langsam as the word of the day! How funny/ironic is that? Anyway, the last 3 days’ worth just for your reading enjoyment:
Langsam, meaning slow, slowly.
Bitte sprechen Sie langsam. Please speak slowly.
Langsam aber sicher. Slowly but surely.
Überqueren is to cross.
Sei vorsichtig, wenn du die Strasse überquerst. Be careful, when you cross the road.
Einladen is a separable verb meaning to invite.
Wir laden unseren Bruder zum Mittagessen ein. We invite our brother for lunch.
Wir haben ihn eingeladen. We have invited him.
