Is there a colloquial/slang equivalent of “'them's fight'n words” in German? Maybe try to find an American Western film that uses that phrase dubbed in German audio or subtitles and see how it was translated by "the professionals". |

Translating emotional sensitivity words Yes, I can look things up in a dictionary, but you get several of the same words repeated for each word you look up. And I didn't know which ones most closely matched the English with the German words. That was what I was hoping to find here. Sometimes I think the German is a bit more expressive. |

Translating emotional sensitivity words @Em1: In the original version of my question I actually started to mention sympathisch and pathetisch as examples of misleading words but decided it would make the question too long. :-) |

What are differences between “ins” and “in”? I edited the answer to switch to "Haus" instead of "Kino" |

What are differences between “ins” and “in”? @HendrikVogt and user unknown: I was merely trying to answer the specific question, not overload John with too many explanations. Perhaps I could have chosen a better example that wouldn't lead into a whole different discussion. Thanks for your input. |

Is “Für jeden ein Gewinn” grammatically correct? It could also be "Ein Gewinn ist für jeden" or "Für jeden ist ein Gewinn". The implied meaning is the same either way, but I wouldn't think it's a big enough issue to downvote over since it's an ambiguous phrase that is understood several ways. :-( |
