[honest flicker]

yeah

horses are hitched to the wagon

[honest flicker]

The man sitting in the 'driver's-seat' of the wagon stopped the horses directly behind Geralt and Dandelion.

[honest flicker]

[low cosmos]

These characters are all named after plants

It looks like it to me, anyway

[coarse yacht]

True.

[ashen timber]

Yeah you get that in Skyrim dubs as well

[low cosmos]

Except Geralt because he has main character energy

[topaz bone]

Easy pickings lol

[honest flicker]

[ashen timber]

Ein weiteres wahres Wort

[hot sedge]

Oder wie heute man auf Englisch sagt

[honest flicker]

genüsslich to enjoy

[hot sedge]

No cap

[ashen timber]

Cracked the whip?

[hot sedge]

[honest flicker]

'hobbling' though in this case like a bumpy gait

[topaz bone]

the mumbling brook

[hot sedge]

Gottverdammt

[topaz bone]

like a bubbling brook? the river is making noise

[analog fiber]

lily pad

[honest flicker]

Entengrütze

[minor pike]

Lilies?

[topaz bone]

oop I am way off on that lol

[hot sedge]

So ducks frequent this place?

[ashen timber]

Duckweed

[honest flicker]

I forget what this is called in english

[minor pike]

Common duckweed apparently

[gilded ore]

Entengrütze is duckweed

[hot sedge]

Ahh

[rough mist]

Duckweedd

[honest flicker]

edit: I never knew the word in English

[hot sedge]

I guess ducks smoke it

[ashen timber]

And he waddled away

[hot sedge]

Lul

[rough mist]

I have duckweed in mi aquarium to waddle on

[ashen timber]

You have both a duck and weed

[honest flicker]

mowed down

[rough mist]

[gilded ore]

mähen is mow

[honest flicker]

yes

like planted with stuff

not empty but planted

[topaz bone]

maintained fields

[ashen timber]

Behind it tilled fields stretched as far as the eye could see.

[topaz bone]

yeah cultivated is better

[minor pike]

like tilled?

[topaz bone]

tilled yessss

[ashen timber]

Yeah

[topaz bone]

roggenbrot

[honest flicker]

rye

[minor pike]

Roggenbrot!

[coarse yacht]

all that new English vocabulary.

[hot sedge]

Kaum zu glauben, dass ich heute so viele neue Wörter begegnen werde

[honest flicker]

he could ride on horseback

and hide himself

[topaz bone]

everyone is learning vocab reading this lol

[ashen timber]

Fr

[honest flicker]

yellow weed

very very numereous

[topaz bone]

canola

is the american english for rapeseed

[minor pike]

Rapeseed or canola i think

[coarse yacht]

[ashen timber]

I have never heard that before

[coarse yacht]

I am so glad Bade is here.

[honest flicker]

this whole time I thought that americans used Canola and germans liked Rapeseed and never realised they're the same

[topaz bone]

I've seen them sell it in the Uk before I think, but that could be my early Canadian upbringing skewing my memories 😂

[hot sedge]

Make a fool out of yourself

[honest flicker]

yes

[ashen timber]

Agriculture is right yeah

[honest flicker]

it is right

wirtschaft =/= wissenschaft 😛

[topaz bone]

fate yep

[coarse yacht]

Destiny? 👀

[topaz bone]

I've heard fate or destiny, both are pretty much the same in eng, though in the tv series i think they used destiny a lot

[honest flicker]

know your way around something or know a lot about it

sich mit/in etwas auskennen

feeds

[ashen timber]

Also Lolo kennt sich gut mit Deutsch aus

C3

[topaz bone]

prpotec t

[delicate drift]

I heard Shicksal from attack on titans ost

[gilded ore]

nährt - nourish?

[topaz bone]

based

[honest flicker]

sorgt sometimes means cares but here it means provides

provides shelter (?)

[hot sedge]

I think fate refers more to something which has a predecided course with a possible end included (it's fate)
Destiny might refer to something similar but might used more for people

[coarse yacht]

[hot sedge]

Destiny seems to match more with the situation of people imo

[honest flicker]

Kälte

feeds

[topaz bone]

yes i agreee, like a fated event, but people being destined to meet

[minor pike]

nourishing?

[hot sedge]

Damn I'm glad my English hasn't gone worse

[honest flicker]

lucky you

[delicate drift]

my eng died

[ashen timber]

Well done man

[topaz bone]

Well done Felix!

[hot sedge]

Since it was my first time encountering this story I can say Rittersporn is my favourite hahaha

[ashen timber]

||Geralt habe erklärt, dass die Dörfler glauben an ihre Ungeheuer-Märchen, um mit ihrer eigenen Ungeheuerlichkeit umgehen zu können. Die sind einem Burschen namens Brennnessl getroffen, der Geralt erklärte, er habe für ihn welche Arbeit. Sie fahren* in seinem Wagen weiter.||

[honest flicker]

||Rittersporn und Geralt reiten auf das Land und sehen sehr schöne Landschaften und viele Vogelarten. Sie werden von einem Mann angesprochen, der Geralt einen Job anbietet. Sie folgen dem Mann zu einem heimlichen Ort, um weiter darüber zu reden.||

[gilded ore]

||Viele Enten! Viele Landschaft! Und dann die beide Menschen sehen einen anderen Mann, und sie gehen mit ihm zu seinem Ort. ||

[ashen timber]

[low cosmos]

Seriously all I could think of was the Pokémon called Roggenrola 😔

[topaz bone]

||Rittersporn und Geralt reiten zusammen durch die Felder und sie haben eine Teiche reich mit der Vogelwelt gefunden. Ein Mann, Brennnessel, kam zu ihren und erklärt, dass er echte Arbeit für sie haben. Sie reisen jetzt zusammen auf dem Wagen zu Posada Ort und sie haben Roggen Felder aus gold gesehen||

aaa i did it wrong

sorry one sec

[honest flicker]

achso, ich habe am Ende wohl nicht genug aufgepasst

[ashen timber]

You have to enter the command and then put it inside it

[delicate drift]

use these twice |

on end at beginning to spoiler

[topaz bone]

aah thank youu

[ashen timber]

Bauersprache 😔

[topaz bone]

Thank you 😄

[minor pike]

||1. Geralt erklärt warum Leute an Ungeheure ausdenken und glauben. 2. Beide reiten fuhr und kommen zu einem Ort, das Reich mit Vogelwelt ist. 3. Beide treffen Brennessl, der Arbeit für den Hexer hat.||

[delicate drift]

||Nachdem Geralt und Rittersporn getroffen haben, fahren sie zusammen zu einem Ort durch schöne Lande||

[ashen timber]

Unteren Ort im Deutschen

[topaz bone]

I was saying the name of the place sorry 😅

[minor pike]

My writing is not that great so apologies in advance for mistakes.

[topaz bone]

Yep Posada in english

[ashen timber]

für den Hexer glaube ich

Aber sonst ists ne gute Zusammenfassung

[hot sedge]

||Die Dorfleute haben zu viel Scheiße bezüglich Ungeheuern gebaut||

Meine kurze Zusammenfassung

[topaz bone]

Thank you for going through and correcting these Rin, I appreciate it takes a fair bit of time and it's very helpful for us learning

[coarse yacht]

Normally I do it while the session but today I will do it afterwards.

[ashen timber]

...or in the case of my summary last time you just live in fear of it and never mention it again

[hot sedge]

When do these lessons usually take place? Every Tuesday?

[ashen timber]

So far yeah

[coarse yacht]

You are an exception I make.

[ashen timber]

Aber ich brauch wohl Korrektüren mehr

[hot sedge]

[ashen timber]

Thank you Base

[topaz bone]

Thank you also Basement for explaining and hosting!

[coarse yacht]

Dü körrüktierst dich bitte selbst.

[minor pike]

Thanks Base that's helpful

[gilded ore]

Das hilft viel Basement

[hot sedge]

Yeah, I get great visual understanding in German but translating it takes the edge off of my brain functioning lol

Danke base

[ashen timber]

Trueout learning German my grammar has always been a bit owkward tough

[honest flicker]

danke euch beiden!

[gilded ore]

Dienstag ist gut für mich

[delicate drift]

Thanky yall

[low cosmos]

I just have to let go of the notion that my sleep schedule can ever return to normal 😔

But at least Rin won't kill me

[gilded ore]

Vielen Dank Rin und Base

[coarse yacht]

[coarse yacht]

That’s the way.

[minor pike]

I find that I suddenly forget English while translating

[ashen timber]

Yeah, very true

[low cosmos]

BÖSE!

[coarse yacht]

[hot sedge]

wahres Wort

[ashen timber]

The translating is important for gaining a deeper understanding of it in German not just relating it to English

[minor pike]

I agree

[topaz bone]

I find english to german harder to translate than german to english

[coarse yacht]

I feel the other way around.

[ashen timber]

I think it gets easier when your brain starts to think in German

[low cosmos]

Yeah I knew ''rapeseed'' was canola but at the moment I completely lost all sense of the word

[topaz bone]

Maybe it's because english is my native, I've got to get my german head on

[low cosmos]

I also thought ''Raps'' was like rapscallion so that was funny to me

[ashen timber]

Oke, thank you both so much for hosting I look forward to the next one

[delicate drift]

thank you for your kidness

[hot sedge]

Forgot to eat Currywurst before reading

[gilded ore]

Ok, vielen Dank und Tscüß, bis nächste Woche

[topaz bone]

Thank you all!

[low cosmos]

Bai bai

[ashen timber]

And thank you for sending the vocab with pics Base it really does help

[minor pike]

Thank you both! These sessions are great! 🙂

[hot sedge]

Thank you everyone

[wary atlas]

It's nice to visualise it.

[topaz bone]

Til next time! Bye!

[low cosmos]

Poor Base had to look through pics of so many ducks

[delicate drift]

my brain is thinking more in german now

[ashen timber]

Schönen Tag noch

[coarse yacht]

If someone keeps track of the vocabularies, would there be interest for a vocabulary Thread?

[merry iron]

auf wiederhören!

[low cosmos]

Bis zum nächsten Mal!

[hot sedge]

Good idea

[delicate drift]

Tschüssi

[minor pike]

Yes please, It would be really helpful

[coarse yacht]

I guess I will ask that next time.

[coarse yacht]

[low cosmos]

Petition to change this chat name to ''Lessons Chat'' because I always forget where to find it and what it's for

[coarse yacht]

Hihi.

[wary atlas]

Why would lessons-chat be easier than lessons?

[low cosmos]

Because when I see ''lessons'' I think I would find lessons in there, like posts of things to learn

[coarse yacht]

*hat erklärt
*an ihre Ungeheuer-Märchen glauben
*Die Sie haben einen Burschen...
*welche

[coarse yacht]

*heimlichen Ich würde Dorf anstatt Ort sagen.

[coarse yacht]

*Viele Landschaft__en__
*Und dann sehen die beide Menschen einen anderen Mann...

Auch hier würde ich zu seinem Dorf schreiben.

[gilded ore]

Danke schön!

I should really have caught both of those.

[coarse yacht]

*reich mit verschiedenen Vogelarten
*zu ihnen
*für sie habe/für sie hat

[topaz bone]

Bahn*

[low cosmos]

[low cosmos]

At least

[dark prairie]

✋🏻

[coarse yacht]

Hehehe.

[coarse yacht]

No,no... that was a mistake. It will be 3mon.

[topaz bone]

You can put your hand up in the audience stage

[minor pike]

3 months?!

[ashen timber]

I have been lied to

[gilded ore]

How many more pages are there? is it worth me buying the book

[coarse yacht]

No you miscalculated it.

[topaz bone]

that's fair

[pine dust]

how long has it been??

[ashen timber]

I calculated it correctly from the information I was given by you

I probably just misheard

[coarse yacht]

Okay fine...

[gilded ore]

I only want to read teh one we're reading together!

[coarse yacht]

Just say my English sucks.

[minor pike]

i haven't read it in english, still worth buying in german?

[low cosmos]

Link to book: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/40603587-the-last-wish

[gilded ore]

So that would be in der letzte wunsch

[buoyant laurel]

When we start:/

[low cosmos]

It's called ''Der letzte Wunsch'' in German btw

https://www.amazon.de/letzte-Wunsch-Andrzej-Sapkowski/dp/3423209933

[dark prairie]

[ashen timber]

Das PDF werden wir nicht erhalten

[pine dust]

[ashen timber]

Man muss es selber kaufen sondern ists leider Piracy

Fair 😭

[low cosmos]

No, learn Spanish and then read it in French

I've found those translations btw lol so they exist

[dark prairie]

Aber ich kann nicht nehmen,weil ich im Irak bin.

[low cosmos]

The French books are very colorful

[pine dust]

[low cosmos]

*teilen?

[topaz bone]

Heyyy Lolo 😄

[low cosmos]

erhalten = to receive, I thought

[topaz bone]

so many birds

[ashen timber]

Leider musst du es entweder kaufen oder von diesen Lektionen das Buch mit uns lesen.

[topaz bone]

let's gooo Felixxxxx

[wary atlas]

Yes but only for killing monsters, not people.

[hot sedge]

[pine dust]

alr alr

[dark prairie]

Okay gern, danke

[ashen timber]

In that sentence I don't think so, probably wasn't erhalten either though cause that's a slightly different context

[pine dust]

i cant understand anything

[honest flicker]

liquor

[pine dust]

smth with alcohol ig

[topaz bone]

burning off alcohol?

aah distilling

oooh

[wary atlas]

Lupine

Wicke

[ashen timber]

Nice

[ashen timber]

Reminds me of foxglove 👀

[pine dust]

weird lavender
alr noted

[topaz bone]

AAah lupine is just lupine but common name is bluebonnet

[hot sedge]

Bluebonnet sounds very pretty

[honest flicker]

yeah.

You've been right about one thing

[wary atlas]

English:
Lupine = lupin
Wicke = vetch

[ashen timber]

"But one thing you got right, sir."

[hot sedge]

[honest flicker]

wachsen =/= wachen

grows right? not wakes

[ashen timber]

Wait

[hot sedge]

This sentence is giving me an aneurysm

Wtf

[topaz bone]

Here everything thrives with strength and grows, which is such a joiy

[ashen timber]

Wait why did you mark this as correct if it wasn't relevant Rin

[pine dust]

i can read the lines but cant understand them

[ashen timber]

It's wachsen

[honest flicker]

it means grow

[coarse yacht]

Wachsen is grow.

[ashen timber]

Oh did he say wachen or smth?

[coarse yacht]

Yes.

[ashen timber]

Ahhh okay I heard wachsen the first time 😭

[coarse yacht]

Lol.

[keen solstice]

Everything thrives and grows here ...

[ashen timber]

Poetic

[topaz bone]

oooh

valley

of blossoms

[dark prairie]

Zwischen die berge

[hot sedge]

Poetically thrashing my brain on the floor

[pine dust]

u are not alone mate 😭

[coarse yacht]

Hahaha, enjoy this struggle.

[pine dust]

name of the flower valley??

[hot sedge]

Kann jemand hier Elvisch?

[topaz bone]

hexer = witcher

[ashen timber]

Is Rittersporn male or female I realise now I never actually checked

[honest flicker]

[coarse yacht]

Male.

It’s so gay.

[ashen timber]

Ahhh okay

[hot sedge]

Just the homies going for a ride together

[gaunt bison]

[hot sedge]

Bromance

[coarse yacht]

[ashen timber]

[ashen timber]

Yup

[hot sedge]

Brogotyourback mountain

[coarse yacht]

Don’t make me giggle in VC guys!

[honest flicker]

ooo very nice translation

[ashen timber]

[pine dust]

so they are using the same name as the elves used??

[honest flicker]

imagination

[minor pike]

didn't find it necessary to change the name the elves coined?

[coarse yacht]

Yup.

[ashen timber]

Genau

[honest flicker]

'wie lebt es sich' is like 'what is life like', if I'm not mistaken

[pine dust]

wait live with the elf??
didnt they drove them out 😭

[topaz bone]

You have your nose in the mountain?

[ashen timber]

Yeah that sounds right

[coarse yacht]

They did. They live in the mountains now.

[topaz bone]

like sticking your nose in someone's business or does it mean about the mountains?

[coarse yacht]

Yep.

[pine dust]

oh so now humans live in the valley?

and elf in the mountains

[gilded ore]

they are right in front of your nose, in the mountains

[coarse yacht]

Ja. Does it make sense in English?

[topaz bone]

Yep, thank you!

[gilded ore]

yes

[pine dust]

nope its still visible

[topaz bone]

Well done Felix!

[low cosmos]

Yay I paid the Rin tax

[honest flicker]

[pine dust]

.

[low cosmos]

Sorry Rïn

Nase, not Näse

[pine dust]

[ashen timber]

Nah she'd only visit it once every 3 months 🙄

[pine dust]

[ashen timber]

Wait who's that

Bewirtung?

I've only seen Bewertung

[topaz bone]

Service / entertainment according to dictionary

[ashen timber]

Ah oke

[low cosmos]

It sounds a bit like they said ''Bewertung'' ja

[topaz bone]

or catering

[coarse yacht]

🙄 so typical. @ashen timber

[topaz bone]

aaah hospitality

that makes the most sense

[ashen timber]

Hey I wouldn't do it with an ä

It's usually ö or ü

[honest flicker]

yes

[coarse yacht]

That makes it better of course.

[ashen timber]

Ahh oke, that would make a lot of sense

[honest flicker]

ähhh no I don't think lost for words

[ashen timber]

I've seen that often but was never sure

[topaz bone]

at a loss for words works in english

is it not like holding back an answer?

[honest flicker]

It is just not answering, doesn't mean you're at a loss for words.

[ashen timber]

Yeah okay

[topaz bone]

Holds back an answer then?

[honest flicker]

yeah exactly

[ashen timber]

No, I'm just being factual 😔

[honest flicker]

you withhold your answer from someone

[low cosmos]

''schuldig bleiben'' means to owe or something, so it would mean like the Witcher had no answer or owes an anwer

[honest flicker]

Very simply: didn't answer. Withholding the answer.

[ashen timber]

[topaz bone]

this i wanna klnow

leggy spoon???

so confused at that bit lol

[ashen timber]

[low cosmos]

Leggy Spoon™️

[ashen timber]

[coarse yacht]

Gebeine = Knochen.

[honest flicker]

the worst part of every lunch meeting

business

[ashen timber]

Bein is used for bones in southern German-speaking lands as well

[topaz bone]

Yeah that threw me a bit in Austria them using Bein for bone not leg

[gaunt bison]

Makes sense, bein is cognate with english bone

[honest flicker]

big guy with a dark gaze

[ashen timber]

Dark?

Yeah

[topaz bone]

magd = maid = old word for girls

[coarse yacht]

Birds again…

[low cosmos]

My thought

[ashen timber]

Obviously regretted by Dandelion or smth

[low cosmos]

Not that kind of birds

[coarse yacht]

Chicks?

[honest flicker]

nicht eben erlesen = not exactly 'correct' like in good form

[ashen timber]

Bro's being horny pretty much if I'm not misunderstanding

[honest flicker]

Telling dirty jokes

Why. Can’t girls not also make inappropriate jokes?

[topaz bone]

Cutting axe?

[honest flicker]

aufbrechen

[coarse yacht]

That’s something else.

[honest flicker]

danke

[hot sedge]

In what context?

[ashen timber]

"I know." When he wanted it Geralt had infinite patience at his disposal. "Tell me what he looks like, where he comes from and how he's disturbing you. One after the other, if that's alright."

[honest flicker]

brechen -> brach
bringen -> brachte
?

[hot sedge]

Aufbringen

Ahhh

Danke danke

[ashen timber]

I think that section was fairly clear

Yeah

[topaz bone]

Misandrism at work, ladies and gentlemen

[topaz bone]

oooh forsooth

[coarse yacht]

Jokes on you Idk that word.

[ashen timber]

💀

My favourite word

[low cosmos]

I've only heard ''forsooth'' once and it was in a very funny context, from PDQ Bach's ''The Seasonings (Op. 1/2 teaspoon) oratorio

[keen solstice]

Can der Reihe nach mean in turn?

[low cosmos]

So this made me laugh

[coarse yacht]

I was waiting that base says it. 😂

[topaz bone]

I've heard it in someone's parody of WAP (well armed peasants) lololol never used in english text now

[low cosmos]

WAP... that WAP?

[ashen timber]

Is there a Witcher dictionary

[low cosmos]

💀

[low cosmos]

There's always a Wikia

[coarse yacht]

There is a Wikipedia site.

[keen solstice]

I would assume there is a fandom page as well.

[ashen timber]

No I mean is there a Buch in which all the creatures are described in this world

[low cosmos]

auf lock...iert

[coarse yacht]

I am pretty sure there is. Sounds like something you can make money with.

[topaz bone]

ruebe = beet

[gaunt bison]

beets?

[ashen timber]

[low cosmos]

Barbarasrhabarberbar?

Well done lolo!

[hot sedge]

Lovely

[gilded ore]

I always like hearing lolo

[hot sedge]

Time to die

[ashen timber]

Why do you have such weird names for crops

[low cosmos]

Chocoloco + lolo = Chocolololoco

[coarse yacht]

I will ignore that.

[ashen timber]

Runkelrüben comes from my worst nightmares

[topaz bone]

tbf a lot of english just steals the german words lol

[honest flicker]

interesting, don't think I ever saw it but yeah, just looks like a white beet

[low cosmos]

''beetroot''

[ashen timber]

Ah oke

[topaz bone]

Mangelwurzel is Futterrübe in german but the English sounds german to me lol as lack of roots

[hot sedge]

O well

[low cosmos]

mangelwurzel, (Beta vulgaris subsp. vulgaris)
swede, neep, rutabaga, (Brassica napus subsp. rapifera)

[topaz bone]

You've got this Rim!

[ashen timber]

He emphasised the M just to make sure you don't have another heart attack

No

It will be somebody else

[low cosmos]

Ah, rutabaga sounds close

[topaz bone]

rutabaga is american / canadian, turnip is english term

[wary atlas]

This one is swede/rutabaga.

[low cosmos]

I reckon everyone knows what ''der Scheiß'' there means

[low cosmos]

I hereby volunteer @ashen timber as the next reader

[coarse yacht]

Well done Rim! That was a hard passage

[hot sedge]

[wary atlas]

[low cosmos]

Niet?! What's Russian doing in my German

[keen solstice]

niet- und nagelfest ugs. adj.: alles, was nicht niet- und nagelfest war everything that wasnt nailed down

[hot sedge]

Nyet

[topaz bone]

bolted / nailed down

[wary atlas]

Asmr stimme

Gimme that vocal fry, husband

[honest flicker]

Internet’s out, I can’t believe I am missing Apollo 😭

[hot sedge]

Didn't know you guys were husbands

People find great relationships here

[coarse yacht]

Nooo…

[hot sedge]

sich das Lachen verbeißen, to hold oneself from laughing?

[coarse yacht]

Yep.

[topaz bone]

you won't come up short?

with the payment

[hot sedge]

Won't complain about the payment I guess

[coarse yacht]

It will be plenty

[hot sedge]

Sounds good?

[topaz bone]

Are you in? I suppose?

[gilded ore]

nice work Apollo

[topaz bone]

Well done apollo!!

[hot sedge]

Gg apollo

[ashen timber]

Is Dhun another plant btw?

[hot sedge]

runzeln?

[low cosmos]

Well done, husband. Now I can sleep. I've been all Apollo-ed up

[gaunt bison]

Dhun is the alderman

[hot sedge]

Ahh

[low cosmos]

Dune is Timotheé Chalamet

[ashen timber]

No it's purely humorous I have about 4 husbands on here

Chris is going on 15 of them I think

[coarse yacht]

Hmmm…

[low cosmos]

''Dhun'' is a village elder in Dol Blathanna, laut Witcher Wiki

I Denglisched but egal, bin sehr müde

[hot sedge]

Let me be number five

[ashen timber]

[hot sedge]

[ashen timber]

[gaunt bison]

what is brennessl in the english translation?

[ashen timber]

Nettle probably

[hot sedge]

Nettle

[gaunt bison]

I literally read this yesterday xD

Ahhh

[ashen timber]

Wait his name is in plural?

[gaunt bison]

Brenntnessel?

[wary atlas]

Brennnessel.

[low cosmos]

https://hexer.fandom.com/wiki/Brennessl

[hot sedge]

On the first sight of this word

I thought of it as

Burning donkey

[ashen timber]

No he said Stinging Nettles

[wary atlas]

Brenn + nessel.

[gaunt bison]

Rim, me too xD

Esel is donkey, no?

Or ass

[hot sedge]

I guess the Brenn comes from brennen

[low cosmos]

https://tenor.com/view/no-donkeys-shrek-gif-12654228499639607610

[wary atlas]

Brennessel.

[hot sedge]

Because of stings/burns

[wary atlas]

Nettly.

[hot sedge]

Nettly

[ashen timber]

Oh

Interesting

[hot sedge]

Lmao

[gaunt bison]

No, in english ass is a word for donkey xD

[hot sedge]

Sounds like Tetley, a tea I know

[gaunt bison]

I like the outdated way they represent the villagers speaking in

I bet the german translation came sooner than english

I heard the English translation only came out after the first video game, no?

[gilded ore]

It feels much older

[hot sedge]

For some reason I find it easier to translate scientific articles compared to stories

Cuz the poetic feel is difficult to translate if you're not well versed in the vocabulary

[gaunt bison]

ahh

[topaz bone]

happy to stay

[gaunt bison]

Gooo on

[gilded ore]

sure

[ashen timber]

Yeah sure.

[hot sedge]

Oui

[gilded ore]

nein danke

[ashen timber]

Sad we lost Lolo

[low cosmos]

Ooh Base read

[gilded ore]

please, you read

[reef girder]

I would if I could

[coarse yacht]

Base.

https://tenor.com/view/cheers-cheer-cheerleader-cheer-up-cheering-gif-18395332177585697711

[ashen timber]

Nicely done

[low cosmos]

Yay base

[topaz bone]

Well done base!!

[ashen timber]

Mythisch

[low cosmos]

''Pure''

[hot sedge]

Gg

[ashen timber]

You said mystisch

[low cosmos]

Base said ''pure'' like in English

[reef girder]

loh jee

[keen solstice]

sounds french

[topaz bone]

is pure in german the same as english?

like pronounced the same?

[hot sedge]

pur?

[coarse yacht]

No.

[low cosmos]

poo-ruh

[gaunt bison]

morast

morass?

[low cosmos]

ooh is ''Euch ansehen'' like ''sich ansehen'' but for the Herr? I've never seen that

[coarse yacht]

What’s the question?

[low cosmos]

I think the ''Euch'' is the Ihr version of ''sich''

[topaz bone]

yep, morass or mire

[coarse yacht]

Do you want to rest.

Euch is like you ?

[gaunt bison]

informal plural dative?

[ashen timber]

Adieu

UwU

[hot sedge]

You plural in a sense

[low cosmos]

I don't understand what you mean

What I'm saying is, ''ansehen'' is reflexive, so ''sich ansehen''. The ''Euch'' is the ''Ihr'' form of ''sich'', I think. I've never seen it because we don't use ''Ihr'' anymore, so ''Euch'' is very strange to me

[coarse yacht]

Doesn’t have to be plural.

[low cosmos]

Goodbye!

[coarse yacht]

Euch can be singular in a polite way.

[ashen timber]

Just doin the French version of farewell 😔

[hot sedge]

sich etw anstellen lassen, suddenly have the thought?

[low cosmos]

That's what I figured, ja

[hot sedge]

Ahh

Then what's the thing that lives under my bed!

[coarse yacht]

👀

[low cosmos]

''I put it forward''?

[last harness]

Was ist anderen zwischen Dativ und Nominativ und wenn können wir üben

[hot sedge]

To stoop low?

Is that what it means

[coarse yacht]

#questions

[ashen timber]

Finally works

Yeah

[hot sedge]

Finished the job of destroying it's sleep

"Teufel existieren nicht, zum Teufel!"

[low cosmos]

I swear the German translator is so fluent in both German and Polish that he managed this incredibly dense translation

[ashen timber]

"There are none! Devils don't exist, damn it!" would probably be the English equivalent

[gaunt bison]

resist_

[ashen timber]

Well done

[topaz bone]

well done base!

[gilded ore]

I love that last line

[ashen timber]

That was really good

[hot sedge]

Feels funnier to literally translate it

[low cosmos]

Yay good job

[gilded ore]

nicely done Rin

[hot sedge]

Well done base

[reef girder]

Gratz

[minor pike]

yay, got back in time

[hot sedge]

We like to praise rin bc rin also deserves praise

[coarse yacht]

[topaz bone]

Thank you Rin for answering all our questions!

[gaunt bison]

ah

[coarse yacht]

Awww…

[gilded ore]

nice work base

[gaunt bison]

so it's not informal plural nominative?

[topaz bone]

aaah Ihr makes more sense for you formal

[coarse yacht]

We are not done yet.

[topaz bone]

as you was plural in english#

[low cosmos]

It's the ''Euch'' that I've never seen before, although I figured it was the ''sich'' of ''ihr''

[ashen timber]

I thought it was fairly standard after playing Skyrim as one of the first games I ever did in German

[topaz bone]

when we used thou

[gaunt bison]

That cauht me off guard

[coarse yacht]

Lmao…

[reef girder]

If we read do we have to translate? or can i just butcher my pronunciation then get booed off stage for not translating?

[ashen timber]

[hot sedge]

[gaunt bison]

Yeah, I had a cursory glance of Der Hobbit

and they use all these austrian/bavarian terms

[coarse yacht]

Sorry just B2 levels are allowed to read in this sessions.

[low cosmos]

The Hobbits do drink a lot of beer, so that makes sense

[reef girder]

Yeah don't worry about it listening works

[ashen timber]

B1s sneak in occasionally as well

[reef girder]

[ashen timber]

||Geralt und Rittersporn kommen in den Blumental, voll wunderschönen violetten Blumen, und erreichen dem Unteren Ort. Da treffen sie mit Dhun, den Ortsältesten, und er spricht mit ihnen über einen “Teufel” in der Gegend: Ein Teufel, der ihnen beim Ackerbau hilft. Der macht aber auch viel Boshaftes im Dorf und richtet Schaden an, und Dhun will, dass sie ihn fangen — aber nicht töten. Der Hexer will ihn sehen, bevor er dem Deal zustimmt, und geht zum Morast.||

[low cosmos]

I'm curious about reading other translations of fantasy now, see if they're equally as dense

[minor pike]

Nein, just finished a B1 course at the Uni!

[topaz bone]
