False alarm.

@kaia @itsFriday

Yes, thanks. :blobpats:

@itsFriday @kaia

In my opinion it's Saturday today...

@kaia Hm, a kind of crossdressing, too.

@kaia I don't say "European", I say "non American". Because America is bad.

But I found e. g. German tooth-paste (made in Dresden) instead of Pepsodent.

Eierschalensollbruchstellenverursacher

@kaia OK. It's often difficult to know.

@kaia Haha, Google translator wrote 'small-dick-havers' in Finnish about "People with tiny tails".

@kaia Are they girls or sissy boys?

@kaia 💡 Eine Birne.

@kaia I'm interested in German/Austrian differences. No Bundestag but Nationalrat. And there are no Fraktionen, but Klubs. And Klubobmann oder Klubobfrau.

And no Busfahrer but Buslenker.
No Januar but Jänner.

@kaia
In Finnish 'romanssi'.

@kaia Aber es gibt doch Söder und Merz.

@kaia That makes me think about the American sci-fi series "Fringe", 2008-13.

@kate
Wow, that's interesting, totally new for me.

@Tizen @kaia @kate

Deutsch ist eine Fremdsprache für mich, ich spreche also als ein unbeteiligter Beobachter, bin auch ein bisschen amüsiert.

@kaia Yeah, I've noticed. Instead of 'Hemd' they say 'Shirt', instead of 'Karte' they say 'Ticket'... And so on. Instead of 'Straßenbahn' 'Tram'. Of course 'Deal' instead of 'Vertrag' or 'Kontrakt'. So sad. 😢

@kaia A foreign tourist in China wanted to meet some chinese common people for talking about their everydaylife, and politics, too. So, he was brought to a chinese man and they talked.
Tourist: "Have you elections?"
Chinese: "Yes, evely Day!"
