popular (presumed to be mythical) origin theory is that MOS stands for broken-English "Mit out sound", that is, "Without sound" as a 1920s German-émigré director might have said it.

Aw - is that as in Garmish Partenkirchen? It's so beautiful there. That's where my grandmother met my grandfather and my dad spent the early years of his life in a town called Grainau. I've been there a couple times and it's just so lovely.
I understood what you said Caek! I mean it's pretty obv even for someone without any knowledge of German but being able to read little bits just makes me wish I knew more. Fuck it. I'm gonna do an online course or something.

We have a terrapin, or in USian English a freshwater turtle. Which is in German eine Sumpfschildkröte, or a swamp-shield-toad. Turtles are Schildkröte, shield-toads.
And apparently the German for "peanuts" as in "to work for peanuts" or "that costs peanuts" is ein paar Kröten, "a couple of toads".

i don't think so. some of the people in my class are building up to that i think. and there is a section at the end of our coursebook explaining how zertifikat deutsch works. so maybe? i guess i will find out what i've signed up for in 8 weeks?!

konjunktiv ii würd ich die pfoten von lassen. especially the missingsche version displayed in the last sentence, which will get you derben respekt irl, but in tests, not so much.
― fancy cure from all alarms (☆), Monday, 9 July 2012 13:32 (twelve years ago) link
