I'm working as a senior frontend developer, sharpening my skills with git, tdd (Jasmine), HAML/SASS and generally with HTML5/CSS3/JS. Currently I'm reading "JavaScript: The Definitive Guide, 6th Edition" and "Mastering Regular Expressions, 3rd Edition". Oh, and I love to cook and can't wait to get Diablo III into my hands!

comment What is the difference between Entschuldigen and Entschuldigung?
And generally when you want to say "pardon" in public, you either say "Entschuldigen Sie" or just short "Entschuldigung". Usually you choose the latter version.

comment How do I use numerals ending with “-lei”
Well, all these *lei words stand basically for some sort of collection or type of things - like saying "Wir haben zweierlei Sorten Brot" does not mean "we only have two breads" but "two kinds of bread" - so usually this *lei is used in conjunction with "kind of". And that makes the difference to simply counting things.

comment Welche deutschen Wörter unterscheiden sich nur in der Betonung?
Wobei hier ja leider unpassenderweise gleich einige Beispiele versammelt sind, in denen NICHT NUR die Betonung, sondern auch die Aussprache geändert werden muss, damit sich die Bedeutung ändert (z.B. Collagen) oder Begriffe, die in der deutschen Sprache doch eher selten bis nie verwendet werden (rentier für "Rentner"? Habe ich noch nie zuvor gehört)
