RE: Ask ze German
Is it true that Germans secretly want to control Europe with the EU?
Whoever fights monsters should see to it that in the process he does not become a monster. And if you gaze long enough into an abyss, the abyss will gaze back into you

If so, do you need to talk about it?

Personally, I defeat them with my charm and impeccable language thingy.

I haven't heard about it, but it is conceivable. I have been on many nudist holidays. Not with russians, though.

No, they don't want to do it secretly.

The english translation is very close. The original is in a slightly more poetic register using some slightly old fashioned language, which makes it sound a bit archaic, matching the nationalism, but the meaning is preserved.

Yes, in many forms, apart from bavarian helles and dunkles, I particularly like IPA and other ales.

Is the Chinese translation on top close, and how does it sound?   And where in the world does one need to cater to such a trilingual audience?

Also, why is that SS panzer commander fighting Henry Fonda during the battle of the bulge with a fleet of m-47 Patton tanks on an Iberian landscape without any snow?
