Why is indirect speech marked by modus instead of tempus in German? corrected grammar and spelling |

What is the literal meaning of “Hau ab!”? @Takkat: edited my answer, hope that clears it up. Now why this particular word has a Latin prefix and not a Germanic one, I don't know either. |

What is the literal meaning of “Hau ab!”? I agree that it's stronger than "Geh weg", but I'd say "Go away" is still a pretty good translation. English doesn't seem to have as many nuanced ways to tell someone to leave. It goes directly from "Go away" to various vulgarities. |

Is it “als” or “wie” (or both) that is translated, “as”? Don't do that, though! My dialect (Bavarian) does this, but it is WRONG and HORRIBLE and WRONG. ;) |

Redewendung wenn man an ein fremdes Telefon gehen muss "Bei" ist Standard, aber erfahrungsgemäß wird es oft überhört - wenn man sich angewöhnt, immer den eigenen Namen dazuzusagen, kann man sich viel Verwirrung sparen. ("Ich hab bei Schmidt gesagt! Stop, ich bin nicht Schmidt!") |

Best way to address a business contact you're on a first name basis with in an email? @Jan It sounded sounded informal and clumsy to me, but since you and at least two other people apparently think it isn't, I might stick with that. You might want to turn this into an answer, and then we can see from the votes if it really is a popular option? |
