The guy who makes the introduction has quite some accent, but he's still well understandable. (Frankfurt has its own accent which can be somewhat peculiar, but I don't speak it.

They asked me in advance if I'd drink some beer with them and I said I'm not a beer drinker, but a glass of wine would be nice. But then we talked too much to think of the wine.

The situation in my former field, theoretical computer science, seems similar in some but not all respects. <br /><br />On the one hand it's similar because there are way more researchers than there used to be, producing an ever greater total of papers, while having too little time to think about even their peer's work, let Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15933461413772769982noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22973357.post-84470431917098559182016-06-25T00:20:36.608-04:002016-06-25T00:20:36.608-04:00Phillip,

I've only been back in Germany since last December, after 12 years out-of-country, and even so most people at my workplace speak English. It doesn't help that I do almost all my reading and writing in English. The present status is that I speak neither English nor German correctly ;) And don't ask about writing (hab die letzte Rechtschreibreform verpasst).

My paternal grandfather and gr-grandfather, the latter from Lower Saxony, spoke the language at the dinner table according to my dad, when he was a child. I was able to catch a few words that are almost identical to English in pronunciation. The word "problem" seems to have the same spelling/meaning in German as it has in David Schroederhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18048116250413347228noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22973357.post-56219551586402075672016-06-24T03:39:40.134-04:002016-06-24T03:39:40.134-04:00Congrats, Sabine.
