What does that mean?

Loosely translated it means that Accountants from Arkansas are funny!

It's been years since I was able to speak and read German, but I believe it translates to: "what do you say when all else fails"

Correctamundo, Gabriele?

Well I guess I was a tad off, guess I better brush up on my German!

[Black Bart]

Sorry, I thought you meant

Well I guess I was a tad off, guess I better brush up on my German!

that we were silly (which may be quite true).

???

After looking harder at the translation, it may read "what do you say when you fail"

I have a call out...

I was close

Talked to two friends, one is Dutch, who says "fluchen" is not in her vocabulary. The other had a German dictionary.

"Fluchen": to curse or swear.

So, "what do you say when you swear?"

Can't speak for anyone else, but I know what I say!

NO NO NO NO BB I was not calling you silly , I just meant what I said that you are a funny guy! Now when am I going to get some more of those client stories. They always seem to crack a smile on my face.

Congratulations, Dennis. The last translation is exactly right. I was curious which words in German Matt uses when he swears.

Swear words

Gabriele,

I'm not sure, as I don't remember any of them. I knew very few curse words in German. The ones I did know, my grandfather used. I picked them up quickly!

[jainen]

which one is it?

>>"Fluchen": to curse or swear<<

So which one is it? To swear is to take an oath, generally a noble thing. To curse is a nasty thing. Or either one could just mean cussing for emphasis, neither good nor bad.

What do you say when you take an oath?

Words

Jainen,

I don't know about you, but when I grew up the words swear or curse meant the same thing when used like this.

Swear words/curse words. We didn't analyze them too much.

I swear not to use any curse words on this board. OK?
