I love german – seriously
“Jemanden festnehmen” means to arrest someone
While “Jemanden fest nehmen” means to fuck someone hard. ｡◕‿◕｡

Sorry to my German friends but it was too funny not to post! And after studying German, I can definitely relate to this.

In Germany we don’t say “I don’t care” we say “Das ist mir Wurst” which roughly translates as “This is sausage to me” I think that’s beautiful.
no you don’t understand we actually do say that

I’m learning German and I love it because its vocabulary is so straightforward and blunt.
How do you say “food”? “Essen”. How do you say the verb “eat”? “Essen”. How do you say “meal”? “Essen”. We food food at food time.
How do you say “flesh”? “Fleisch”. How do you say “meat”? “Fleisch”.
“Kittens” are “cat-children”.
I love German.

Me speaking German to a German
Me: Um… hast du… der… ah, fuck.
German: It’s okay, friend. Learning a second language is difficult, but with enough practice and time you’ll acquire the vernacular and colloquialisms to communicate in a concordant matter vis-à-vis other Germans. I myself still struggle with the endeavor of mastering the English language, ergo, I hope I have articulated myself in a proper manner.

In German we don’t say “Everything must come to an end” we say “Alles hat ein Ende nur die Wurst hat zwei” which roughly translates to “Everything has an end, except the sausage which owns two (ends)” and I like food.
