Anybody speaks German?

[KGB]

Hey guys, I just got a registered mail from Europe and it is in German, I guess some kind of traffic violation ticket from our trip in September. I just want to know what it says, I can see they want me to pay some money. Anybody can help?

[TrollGRG]

If you go to google they have translations available there.

You spelt Svie wrong...it's Zwie. Typical army guy...only ordering two beers.

[silverdoctor]

GF is born and bred, and bilingual if you can't get it sorted. Could crack a tongue joke but it seems the mods are a little edgy ;)

[elkfriend]

I am fluent, if you need help let me know

No, its not zwie. Its zwei.

[Putter1022]

For your phone there is an app that google provides that will translate from a picture. Have not tried it but did download as it is free.

What's German for "My grandfather didn't care about speed limits when he drove his tank across your country. Neither do I." ?

Have you considered saving the $35 and never going back?

I don't think it works if you take a picture of a Japanese tourist talking.

What if Germany and Alberta have a traffic fines reciprocity agreement, like BC and AB do?
Kidding, but that's the direction this interconnected world is going in.

I down loaded the app and took a picture of a vid on youtube of Japanese tourist talking in Banff and the translation came up as "What time are grizzly bears?".


weird

[twofifty]

that translation app must be next gen...it uses GPS location (i.e. Banff) in the algorithm to shape-shift the translation in accordance with the Park animals' schedules.

I found it a little funny that when I started learning a bit of German using Duolingo (great little app) it constantly used the phrase, "Bist du seine Mutter oder seine Schwester?"

Which means, "Are you his mother or his sister?"

Clearly a very valuable phrase in Germany.

Good app though. My fiance is learning with that and he is getting really good. He throws German around like a pro. Def earning extra points with the soon-to-be in-laws.
Duolingo also taught him "Meine Frau hat immer recht" (My wife is always right)
Definitely a great app ;-)

Ich habe sie nie in meinem Leben gesehen Offizier wird diese halten mich aus dem Zug nach Polen ?
