„Warum viele Deutsch Leute in der Schweiz?“

Sprecher A: „Warum viele deutsch Leute in der Schweiz?“
Sprecher B: „Ihr kommt für EURO CUP Fussball sehen.“
Sprecher A: „Aber es ist ins nächste Jahr..“
Sprecher B: „Ihr kommt für arbeite finden, dann kann ihr die Karten kaufen.“
Now wonder next WM is in Süd Afrika, where people speak German... No offense, I am looking forward the EURO CUP. It is hard to make a good joke in foreign language. One of my first American English book I tried to read was the taxi drivers' joke collection. In a different culture, the most difficult thing is to share a laugh. That is why pen is mightier than a sword. People can fear others by a sword or iron fist, yet make them pleased is something a pen can do. Dedication? It will go to the great comedy writer, William Shakespeare.
