    Yes, because I’ve conspired to turn several dictionaries and literary scholars against you because you are somehow that important.

    Antwort, context matters you’re not making the point you think you are.

      I just want to learn some German from you. It’s getting worse and worse by the minute!

      I’m just a little guy who is crazy, because he’s yelling into woods and expecting an echo!

      Forgive me father, for I have sinned, because my translations of German idioms is not perfect.

        That’s not an argument, I’ve sourced proof your turn.

        That’s literally the point of the saying, what exactly did you think it meant.

        It’s not an issue that your setting wrong, it is however trying telling the way you take it.

          And here I was, pondering about why the forest is ghosting me whenever I yelled into it (in several distinct kinds). I’m such a fool, aren’t I?

          Good thing you came along and explained that German idiom to me which I’ve heard and used for decades now. In my mother tongue. Which is German.

          Can you explain some other idiom to me now? Who are the Hempels, and why do they never clean up under their Sofa (that’s a German term for “Couch”).

            Correct, you are a fool, I don’t believe this is the only reason why but kudos for being willing to admit it.

            Doing something for years doesn’t mean you’re doing it right. I speak English I don’t know every English idiom perfectly and no one expects you to know every German one.

            Sure, shoot I’ve got time and you’ve no defense aside from lashing out it seems.

                I know they have nothing to do with how or why you’re wrong, you’re willing to provide evidence for reason claims just not the one you’re crying about, how telling.

                    Reads as: you can’t debate me. Objective proof is hard to argue against which is why you haven’t.
