Iss dein Teller Hannes (0 replies) started by seaweedy (07.20.2001 0:37:50 AM EST) Hannes is grammatically correct, but the sentence is usually abbreviated to the colloquial expression "Iss dein Teller" which means "eat your plate." What part of the fatherland are you from Hannes?

a platefull of lies :) (0 replies) started by hannes (07.19.2001 2:27:11 PM EST) Well, ok some of it may be true, but the German saying is "Iss deinen Teller leer", which of course translates to "empty your plate" or "eat everything on your plate". On the other hand, in medieval Europe it was quite common to use "plates" made from stale bread. After the meal these were often given to beggars to eat. So it looks like these Taiwanese are less innovative then they may think. What are these products made for right-handed people which kill left-handed people, guns? :) Fun fact: concrete will not melt in moderate climates. ;)
