I came in here from the UK thread to see how the Germans are getting on with orders (much the same-slow).

It suddenly occurred to me-how come you guys aren't speaking in German to each other? Not sure if that's a dumb question or not...

I have been asking myself this question for weeks and actually some days ago understood # There are many members from other countries who ordered a watch in Germany. That's why here almost all topics are in English rather than in German.

Im Swedish! Using German cause Euro is better compared to GBP in Swedish Kronors. :) Ich heisse Johan <- thats the only thing i can huehue
 
Very good-I had to use Google translate.

Ich auch. Mein Deutsch is nicht so gut, aber ich weiß ein bischen auf zum Sprache. Ich hatte immer noch zu verwenden Google Translate.

Gosh, feel so bad about the fact I haven't had German in school for years. Only had it for a year (and got very good grades btw!), but already forgot half of the stuff I learned. :eek:

By the way, my Apple Watch got loaded onto the delivery truck. Arrives soon! Will post pictures as soon as it's being set up. ;)

With Google translate:
Ich sehe , eine gute Nachricht auf Ihre Uhr ! Lok uns auf Bilder von ihm .
 
It's actually harder reading the stuff from google translate and understanding it, then if you guys write in english ;D

True. Soooo true. xD

Let's stick with English then. Or would you like to read from Dutch? :)

Nederlands is een mooie taal, hoor. Moeilijk te begrijpen voor mensen die Engels of Duits spreken. Maar het is wel de taal die ik spreek. :D

No never mind, I'll stick with English. Dutch is very hard to understand, and it might be even more difficult for you to read from Google Translate (like with German).
 
Gotta love Google Translate.. xD If If I translate it from your sentence it says this: "I see good news on your clock! Lok us pictures of him". Or is that what you were supposed to say? :p

Close! I said congratulations on getting your watch and do show some pictures.
 
To a german dutch sounds most times like a really drunk german dude.
And it varies between a little bit tipsy ( I understand most of the sentence ) and totally wasted ( for example iTom17's post ) xD

Well, I indeed was close. xD

Hahaha. _O_ Actually feel the same about German, to be honest. :$ You will be even more surprised about how everything sounds and reads like when you talk in 'Brabants' (province in the Netherlands, which has its own dialect).

Sentence I mentioned would be something like this:

Nederlands is un schône toal, hoor. Moeilijk te begrijpe veur mense die Engels of Duits spreke. Moar ut is wel de toal die ik spreek. Echt woar!


:rolleyes:


It's not that hard. lol

Well, consider how long it took Apple to make Siri available in Dutch it really is quite hard to understand. Mostly because of all the different dialects, you know? :)

A few minutes ago, my AWS Silver 38 mm changed to "Preparing for Shipment" :) I ordered it on May the 4th be with you

16:58 yday they charged me, so i think their "work hour" for procceding orders is starting from around 16.00. Might see some update soon then.
