When should I use ruhig / still? Even more complicated: "Nimm dir ruhig einen Keks, wir haben noch mehr". Here ruhig is used to express encuragement rather than meaning to take the cookie quietly. |

What is the German Word For “Mortgagee?” "Hypothekennehmer" is a composite word I've read once or twice as well. |

What is the difference between 'noch' and 'noch immer'? I agree. The use of noch immer as opposed to just noch stresses the continuity and expresses slight annoyance or suprise. Er sitzt noch would just be a peace of information delivered neutraly and unopinionated. |

Can “anscheinend” mean “apparently” in the surprised sense? "Anscheinend wird..." or "Überraschenderweise wird ..." are also common ways to express your opposing expectations. The latter would be the clearest adjective to state your surprise. |

Wie fragt man “Wie wäre es mit … 1 Uhr”? "Wie wäre es mit Eins|Zwei|...|Zwölf?" klingt in meine Ohren gut. Bei allem über Zwölf stellen sich mir ohne das "Uhr" dahinter die Nackenhaare auf. Für den Spezialfall 24:00 Uhr = 00:00 ginge noch "Wie wäre es mit Mitternacht(s)?" Was das "mit Eins Uhr" angeht, das ist falsh. Das "Uhr" wegzulassen ist in jedem Fall eher umgangssprachlich, aber ich höre es recht oft - besonders im süd- und mitteldeutschen Sprachraum. |

Why is the title “Friseuse” considered as inappropriate? I heard it was not at all meant derogative. With the spelling reform in Germany a lot of foreign words were changed into something more fitting to the predominant logic. "Friseuse" was one of these words but some people simply didn't know the reason and the whole "discriminating term" up. |

How to express “silly” in German? I don't think "albern" is outdated. Sei doch nicht albern! |
