As you all know, although I am living in Vienna, I do not get the opportunity to speak to a whole lot of Viennese people, hence my German is not as strong as it should be for someone living in Austria for four years. This is a problem for those of us who want to live and work in Vienna after our contracts are over. So, we came up with the brilliant idea to hold a games night, wherein we would only speak German. This way, we would get to hang out and do something that we all enjoy, but we would also be reinforcing all of our German skills. Perfect.
The evening began with the warning sign above from Dante. You know this one, right? Abandon all English, ye who enter...or something to that effect.
Then we were on to snacks and chatting.
Then the games began and kitty watched over us with burning jealousy because she couldn't understand a word we were saying. Should really get her some language training.
All in all we had about 4 hours of nothin' but German.
Was????
