Fox and Frau Fox,
Welcome. We may understand you better than other way around. I never mastered English much, myself. ( I know all my numbers and letters but have trouble using them.) Tell you husband that a good "Deutch" accent is very desirable in re-enacting pioneer times. See refernces to Michael Stoner (Holsteiner) who was Boone's preferred companion.
Do you know about Babelfish? It translates languages very well. I have used it for German, Russian, Spanish and even Thai. It messes up the verbiage sometimes, and misunderstands gender but I guaruntee you husband will understand it. Some west coast folks have trouble with this gender business, too, but not me.
Merely have him copy and paste the English into the babel fish window and hit translate! Same to change German to English, for replies.
Not that we mind conversing with Frau Fox! I have trouble getting ladies to talk to me anyway. Those that know me at least! Not like the other charming fellows, in here, who probably even smell good! We want YOU to remain "in here" too!! Tipis and several ladies are the very best!! We DO mind when they beat us shooting, though! :thumbsup:
