» cmryor - Hallo, Bossel!

Hi Bossel,

Ich bin gleich wieder da! I have been out west for a week so just now got your message. I did put a caption in the picture.

Thanks for your merciful comments this week. ;)

Mach's gut,

» bossel - hi, colleen.

my heart is filled with mercy, but there are my several personality disorders on top which make me criticize you. (as long as you don't take it personally.) poor girl!

did you really want to say. "Ich bin gleich wieder da!" (in the other discussion)? or 'ich bin endlich wieder da!'.
what you wrote, means 'i'll be back in a moment.'

you see, how merciful i am.
but i always hope, others correct me when i make mistakes, in the same way as i try to handle their's. (okay, you don't make many mistakes, my comments are usually only additions. but you know what i mean.)

» cmryor - Okay, correction, Herr Bossel:

Okay, correction, Herr Bossel: It should be "theirs," anstatt "their's." ;) ha!

I wrote back to you at the Kaffeetrinken article.

Bis bald,

This article was so helpful. I've always been intimidated by the length of German words. Not now. I'll simply break them into managable parts.
All the best. Glenice
