Billy James Brightraven
Billy James Brightraven That's an interesting take on little red riding hood :P

I'm out :(
Maria Weidner
Maria Weidner :(
Billy James Brightraven
Billy James Brightraven I wonder if Tuss is cognate to Swedish tös, they're quite similar in meaning and sound.
Maria Weidner
Maria Weidner maybe, I don't know what tös is...
Billy James Brightraven
Billy James Brightraven a girl :p
Maria Weidner
Maria Weidner ok :)
Sarah Karoline
Sarah Karoline I've just logged on to do some Polish, and had a surprise that two rounds have finished in one afternoon. Were these the quickest rounds so far?! I shall have to sit out of the Rödkäppchen story though... :)
Arief Wibowo
Arief Wibowo Welcome back, Maria Weidner!!! :D

Sarah Karoline, we brought down the rating down after Criminal Baby :D
Arief Wibowo
Arief Wibowo My quick (40 minutes :P ) take on the 2nd paragraph:
The [seim] mothers had the [ma] said [dem] should to [besoffene] grandmother [latschen] and concrete/real white bread
and a bottle of Schnaps the deal, I swear!
Maria Weidner
Maria Weidner Before I go to bed I'll do a quick check! Mothers are too many, dem seim is one one word in English, the deal is wrong, the rest is right! :)
Marius Vincenzii Dennischter
Marius Vincenzii Dennischter Maria Weidner Congratulations! You did it!
Christian James Meredith
Christian James Meredith Ah shit I forgot about 2.2! Mikkel Ramzuiv Pittmann Wilson, thanks for one hell of a ride :P (even if I jumped off the roller coaster while it was still going and reincarnated as a safety inspector)
Christian James Meredith
Christian James Meredith I'd like to be able to say "I'm out" but apparently my German isn't good enough yet to be able to get > half straight away :(

Andy Ayres since I don't think this got brought up and we don't have a glossary yet from what I can tell:
NSIH = http://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/n%C3%A4ra_skjuter_ingen_hare

Which was a round in itself before :P

(also, stjälcuri and variants = "utilise the fruits of cooperation to win a round" = steal prior progress and win :P

And ställa and variants are just a word that gets thrown around, thanks to another round from the resident Swedes which involved a sentence full of ställ-)
Christian James Meredith
Christian James Meredith "Da war mal eim geilen Tuss, dem hat immern so pervers rote Wollmütze aufgehabt, isch schwör!

Dem seim Muttern hat dem ma gesagt dem soll zu besoffene Omma latschen un konkrete Weißbrot
un Flaschem Schnaps dem besorgen, isch schwör!"

With guesswork and Wiktionary:
"There was once a hot (Tuss), who always wore such perversely red woolen mittens, __________"

Then their mother had them (ma?) said them should latch to a drunken Grandma and get a concrete Whitebread and Flashy Schnaps, _____"

WAS IST DIESER. MEIN KOPF, ES HURZT.
Arief Wibowo
Arief Wibowo Christian James Meredith, I swear to the best of my knowledge and ability that the ending of each sentence is I swear :P
Christian James Meredith
Christian James Meredith But zat vuld nein sense gemacht bekaus az ve alle knowen das Deutschern sprechen alväys mit precision und ackuracy, und "isch schwör" vuld be zuch ein lazig väy zu sprechen :O
Marius Vincenzii Dennischter
Marius Vincenzii Dennischter My fireworks card is a bit out of date though, I was saving it for NY round, but who would have guess that we would be stucked in Japan?
Arief Wibowo
Arief Wibowo Isch don't knowen vat iz "isch" but it zur sunded laik "ich" :P Letz'ee
Arief Wibowo
Arief Wibowo Vait, vat is dzis?
http://de.wiktionary.org/wiki/Isch

man/friend?
Justyna Rojek
Justyna Rojek Ok, is it 'There was once a dissolute Tuss (it's a name) , who always wore such perversely, red, wollen mittens, I swear! The (his) mother had said him that he should latch to a drunken grandmother a concrete white bread and a bottle of vodka to take care of her (?), I swear!'
Arief Wibowo
Arief Wibowo Welcome to the game, Justyna Rojek :)
Maria Weidner
Maria Weidner Good Morning! Went out yesterday so it got a little late ;). Let's see what we've got.
Maria Weidner
Maria Weidner Justyna Rojek Dissolute is wrong, Tuss is not a name, mittens is also wrong.latch is wrong as well. And take care of her is..wrong!
Maria Weidner
Maria Weidner ChristianThere was once a hot (Tuss), who always wore such perversely red woolen mittens, everything is right, but no mittens Then their mother had them (ma?) said them should latch to a drunken Grandma and get a concrete Whitebread and Flashy Schnaps, _____"
them is wrong, get needs an indirect object, flashy is more than wrong! :)
Arief Wibowo
Arief Wibowo I think Flaschem is flask (hence I translated into bottle)

I can't find any info about Tuss... But it made me remember Puss in Boots :D
Maria Weidner
Maria Weidner Arief, you are right! :)
Marius Vincenzii Dennischter
Marius Vincenzii Dennischter Maria If it's not too troublesome for you, would you mind editing your comment in the previous round and post the whole answer from Andy Ayres' round there?
So we can tag it to the sprogspelet website :)
cheers.
But don't bother if it's really difficult to find that post again in this long thread :P
Maria Weidner
Maria Weidner I'll try :)
Billy James Brightraven
Billy James Brightraven *cough close probable cognste in Swedish tös cough look it up cough Norwegian loanword is closer in meaning to the German word cough*
Maria Weidner
Maria Weidner When I think that you've gone, black shadow that covers me, at the foot of my pillows, you return,joking about me When I imagine that youhave gone, you show yourself to me in the same sun, you are the star that shines, you are the wind that hums
Arief Wibowo
Arief Wibowo Uhm, I thought Tuss != girl?
Otherwise, Tuss = lass, looks similar (doesn't sound similar, but looked similar :P )
Maria Weidner
Maria Weidner girl! yeah
Maria Weidner
Maria Weidner so, we have: there was once a hot girl (Christian+Arief)
Arief Wibowo
Arief Wibowo (Maria Weidner, you've got to edit the previous comment from 15 hours ago, not as new comment as it will send the Sprogspelet system into blackhole :P )
Maria Weidner
Maria Weidner ehem...sorry...
Christian James Meredith
Christian James Meredith It was the -ern for me that made me think of something other than a flask :-/

"Said to them" on the subject of dem (I knew dem was an object of sorts, I guess that's a start :P )
Arief Wibowo
Arief Wibowo There was once a hot girl, who always wore such perversely red wollen cap, I swear! [...]
Maria Weidner
Maria Weidner yeah!!!!
Arief Wibowo
Arief Wibowo Christian James Meredith, it was -em, not -ern :)
Maria Weidner
Maria Weidner Christian (can't tag): let's say "dem" is singular... ;)
Maria Weidner
Maria Weidner Has anyone an idea what kind of German it is? :)
Marius Vincenzii Dennischter
Marius Vincenzii Dennischter Christian I can't see your comment here in the thread. Did you happen to block me? :p
facebook is on drugs again...
I receive the notification, but no post
Arief Wibowo
Arief Wibowo When Facebook is on drugs, but
http://sprogspelet.arwi.im/live/ is not

And I have no idea what flavor of German this is... The Western kind?? :P
Maria Weidner
Maria Weidner It is not a dialect, it's a sociolect :)
Justyna Rojek
Justyna Rojek There was once a hot girl who always had such perversely, red, wollen bonnet worn, I swear! The (her) mother had said her that she should slouch/traipse to a drunken grandmother a concrete white bread and a bottle of vodka to look after her,I swear!' maybe?
Christian James Meredith
Christian James Meredith Arief Wibowo das ist even wurst :O

Maria Weidner I assumed so (there's no one else to talk to apart from Tuss the sexy person :P ). We Australians love to use "them" as a catch-all 3rd person pronoun (like "you" instead of "thou", and we're even slowly using "we" similarly as a sort of "inclusive first person singular pronoun")
Marius Vincenzii Dennischter
Marius Vincenzii Dennischter Justyna, we agreed that Tuss = girl. aka hot chick :)
Maria Weidner
Maria Weidner Justyna, Vincensiu is right!
Maria Weidner
Maria Weidner traipse!! yes!
Christian James Meredith
Christian James Meredith Cue Gangnam style *ooooooh, sexy ladeh!*
Maria Weidner
Maria Weidner now get the pronouns right!
Christian James Meredith
Christian James Meredith Can I ask for a translation from English to English for "traipse"? :P
Maria Weidner
Maria Weidner http://www.thefreedictionary.com/traipse
Arief Wibowo
Arief Wibowo My research into latschen brought up this nice pine: http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bergkiefer
Christian James Meredith
Christian James Meredith Danke schøn!
Andy Ayres
Andy Ayres "There was once a hot girl who always wore such a perverse red woolen bonnet, I swear.

Her mother told her to traipse to her drunken grandma to bring her a concrete white bread and a bottle of schnapps, I swear!"
Maria Weidner
Maria Weidner Andy won, I am sorry! :D
Maria Weidner
Maria Weidner Andy, did you understand it right away?
Marco Airaghi
Marco Airaghi lots of wods i don't know:P
Justyna Rojek
Justyna Rojek yes, sorry, but I'm on my mobile and I have to update all the time, and sometimes don't see some of the last comments ;)
Andy Ayres
Andy Ayres That is a funny variant of Red riding hood :D! I got most of it, but the dialect threw me off a little, what kind of German is that out of interest, Maria :)?
Arief Wibowo
Arief Wibowo Congratulations, Andy Ayres :)
Christian James Meredith
Christian James Meredith CJMV (like KJV but more controversial):

"Thar were once a bonnie guid lookin' lass who always wore a ruddy woolen bonnet so perverse it burnt me eyes out, I swear, Sean.

So anyway, 'er mo'r gone told 'er to wend 'roond tae'r gran' mo'r tae brang'er a whitbread ma'e o' concrete, an' a botteil o' schnapps, I'm tellin' ya the truth me old buddeh!"

Justyna Rojek congrats! :)
Marius Vincenzii Dennischter
Marius Vincenzii Dennischter Andy Ayres That was a quick winning strike :)
Maria Weidner

Arief Wibowo
Arief Wibowo Turkish-German? I wouldn't have guessed it
(http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kanak_Sprak for non-German-reading folks)
Maria Weidner
Maria Weidner Christian just one minute earlier and you had won!!! :(
Maria Weidner
Maria Weidner i put both links, Arief :) yes, turkish- German :)
Andy Ayres
Andy Ayres Interesting! The "isch" had me thinking that it was Schwäbisch or some other strange Alemmanic dialect :D.
Arief Wibowo
Arief Wibowo Like Justyna Rojek, I'm having a bit of Facebook-time dilation effect here :)
