you're forgetting hande hoch, achtung and raus! raus!
I took to visiting Vienna for three or four weeks for a few years pre-covid. The weather was good for wandering around and they had two quite big poker rooms. So I started to learn a it of german then. After the covid break the card rooms shut down. There were some new regulations brought in that only licensed casinos could do poker comps, so the rooms never re-opened.
One of my sisters in law is german and my two nephews speak it, so I've kept up the learning, after a fashion. At Xmas I was down at my brother's and his mother-in-law was over and she speaks very little english, but we were able to have a little bit of conversation which was good. She's ninety years old and I only mentioned the war once, but I think I got away with it.
