Apr 25	comment	What is the German equivalent for “generation skipping trust?” I have seen it. =] I have also been to the country in which is set, but not to the city after which it is named. (I did also use the internet to make sure I wasn't wrong before posting this!)
Apr 25	comment	What is the German equivalent for “generation skipping trust?” @TomAu: Sorry, I hope you didn't find my comment insulting. I was just teasing. (Having parents around your age, I do realise that what is trivial to do on the internet for someone my age can feel less trivial to people who didn't more or less grow up with the internet.)
Apr 25	comment	What is the German equivalent for “generation skipping trust?” @Tom Au: Do you think trying an extremely easily searchable source known to be almost always incorrect really counts as 'research effort'? =]

Apr 8	comment	“Der gute Mann” vs. “Ein guter Mann” Wenn es darum geht, ob Information wiederholt wird, dann geht es um die Artikel und die Adjektive.
Apr 7	comment	“Der gute Mann” vs. “Ein guter Mann” @HagenvonEitzen: Ich verstehe nicht ganz, was du meinst: bei der starken Deklination sind die Artikel gleich für Männlich und Neutrum, sodass man daraus doch nicht das Genus erkennen kann.
Mar 11	comment	Wie sage ich “used to do” auf Deutsch? @netsetter: "to be used to something", and for "gewohnt sein, etwas zu tun" it's "to be used to doing something".
Mar 11	comment	Wie sage ich “used to do” auf Deutsch? @user unknown: "drank", not "drunk".
Mar 5	comment	Why is “Vater” spelt with 'V' when it is pronounced like 'father'? I think the german v still is less 'sharp' than f, actually.
Feb 27	comment	Can I say “Montags und donnerstags gehe ich zur Uni um halb elf.” Is this the correct word order? This doesn't explain why 'gehe ich' comes where it does in the sentence, though, which was one of the things the OP was unsure about.
Feb 27	revised	Can I write “Jeden Tag stehe ich halb zehn auf.” added 142 characters in body
Feb 27	answered	Can I write “Jeden Tag stehe ich halb zehn auf.”
Feb 17	comment	Is this the correct way to spell the slang term for 'toilet' in German — 'Scheißehaus'? @TheBlastOne: You can use 'toilet' for the room or building in English, too.
Jan 1	revised	'Dass' since the spelling reform minor correction to last sentence (it didn't quite make sense)
Jan 1	comment	'Dass' since the spelling reform @Hubert: Yes, I know, that's what I said. Perhaps I didn't state it in the clearest way? Also I just noticed that the last sentence of my answer doesn't quite make sense.
Jan 1	comment	'Dass' since the spelling reform @abacus: That is correct. It is the vowel sound before the ß or ss which determines which should be used. Most spelling followed that principle anyway before the reform; the point of the reform was to standardise things like this.
Jan 1	comment	'Dass' since the spelling reform @elssar: Yes, I do. I think of a vowel primarily as a sound rather than a letter. Another pair of examples would be Fuß and Fluss.

Nov 24	comment	Basic Deconstruction of German @Emanuel: All four German cases are already included in this list. We don't get every gender in every case, though.
