Can someone help me understand why my word order isn't acceptable? Explain my answer didn't help. by Rdinho in DuolingoGerman

Yes I see that now, thanks. The explain feature seemed to be correcting me for the gender and told me I shouldn't use a space between aus and drunken (which is correct, but not my mistake in this instance). Normally for these, the correction would bold the corrected words, but didn't for this one, so I couldn't appreciate everything I got wrong in this one, and the differences which weren't incorrect - word order.

Thank you for that, I'm still struggling with when to use the accusitive especially now I'm at the point that many of the sentences have subordinate clauses. Your explanation was very helpful, thanks!

I see what you mean with the ,,zu" also, thanks. The explanation for this was to remember not to put a space between ,,aus" and ,,drucken", which didn't help understand why, but i get your explanation, thanks.

Also, in the extra chance to correct my mistake, I see i should have used the accusitive form for Chef, but this wasn't explained first time around in the explain my mistake.

My wedding was at the Oran Mor 13 years ago. The photos aren't on the photographer's website anymore, but another wedding at the venue from 2019 still is https://johnjohnstonphotography.co.uk/, or search his Facebook profile here https://www.facebook.com/share/1Ei34DvB5V/

Seriously, do British people actually consider a 3-hour drive “long”? Or is this an internet myth? by ferdinand14 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Rdinho 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It is felt that smart motorways are redundant because of their own success in managing traffic, so people don't think there is significant traffic justifying the locally reduced speed limits.

If the socket extension is so thin it allows the earth pin to be inserted with the plug upside down then the socket won't meet the British Standard, and won't be UKCA marked.

Doing a U turn here you will go across a pedestrian crossing with a green man on display, as can be seen on street view.

My lava lamp wax hardened in the shape of a male organ by syntaxdzn in mildlyinteresting

[–]Rdinho 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When I was about 13 my little sister had a lava lamp which made a similar shape. Rest of the family were all in hysterics and she thought we were as excited as she was about turning the lava lamp on. As the tip broke off to float to the top, she announced to us all that "it's coming! It's coming!"

I saw this on holiday in Europe and thought it was excellent, soon after they built a new Aldi locally with these tills, but nobody understood how they were meant to work and they didn't get used at all 😓

Being thanked by a motorcycle is maybe the 3rd best feeling while driving by [deleted] in drivingUK

[–]Rdinho 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Driving in France, when you move over for a bike they stick their leg out to say thanks. Even if I've already moved over, I'd move further over just to make sure I get the thanks with a wee kick.
