Ich spreche nicht Deutsch

I have been trying to learn a little Germany before I leave on my trip. I really enjoying it, from the comfort of my living room. I'll see if I change my mind once I'm in Germany with a two word vocabulary. I think I might take a course over the winter when I get home. That's kind of silly timing, I realize, but I'm too busy over the summer to do much else, plus I had to get inspired first.

I've been listening to some "learn German" tapes on my iPod while I walk to work. Basically I walk down the street and either grunt out loud (my attempts to say the german words) or announce things in English (my translation) like, "some women are attractive!".

I have 5 days to learn the rest of the german language. No problem.

Can you teach me everything you know when you get back? That way I figure I'll know the entire German language too.

What a brilliant plan! What ever could go wrong?

PS. I told someone I was going to Edinburge on purpose today.
