I have tried to learn more of the German language , however I kind of stopped after I read the quotes from Mark Twain . I hope that I do not get some bad e-mails from the members of this list. I thought that the quotes were kind of funny , maybe not true , but funny.

I love the German language, I enjoyed taking college German in modern print. I love Mark Twain, and agree with his comments about the German script of his time period. I am trying to read church records from the mid 1800s and it is tough but not impossible. :-) Twain described me to a tee, She was not quite what you would call refined. She was not quite what you would call unrefined. She was the kind of person that keeps a parrot. - Following the Equator; Pudd'nhead Wilson's New Calendar ----- Original Message ----- From: "Karl Roussin" <kroussin@fidnet.com> To: <prussia-roots@rootsweb.com> Sent: Friday, January 12, 2007 12:26 PM Subject: Re: [PRUSSIA-ROOTS] Mark Twain quotes > I have tried to learn more of the German language , however I kind of > stopped after I read the quotes from Mark Twain . > I hope that I do not get some bad e-mails from the members of this > list. > > I thought that the quotes were kind of funny , maybe not true , but > funny. > Check out > http://www.twainquotes.com/German.html > > Karl Roussin >

Karl Thanks for letting me start the day with a laugh. I love the dogs and cats quote. It certainly takes me back to learning German in high school in the seventies. If, in the course of my genealogical research, I ever have to tell someone that my dog, Walter, bit the postman I'll be right.
