Expanding your brain by 20% might not go well... that's extra 20% to worry about.

What is even plier-english?

[–] [email protected] 4 points 3 months ago (1 children)

The equivalent of "Zangendeutsch". Take an English sentence, translate each word 1:1 and you'll have Zangendeutsch.

Plier English is the opposite. Take a German sentence and translate each word 1:1, ignoring all grammatical structure.

German jokes are the wurst.

Learning French in the US is such a let down. Spanish is the unofficial second national language and German has the best memes.

Understanding the language is great but it's not enough. Unfortunately the majority of stuff posted are inside jokes which is why a lot of people perceive them as unfunny apparently
