The more I learn about Germany, the more I like it. It sounds clean and tidy, and filled with fun idioms-all things dear to my prairie heart.
Which is desperately homesick, as the family homestead is cool and cloudy today, while I feel like a steamed fish. Why is the air so chewy!

If you don't mind the mandatory stick up your where-the-sun-shineth-not, it isn't half bad, sure.

Someone once said German is like word lego. Just mix and match your word parts, and it's supposedly a common practice.
What I am definetly guilty of, probably especially as Austrian, is building oversized sentences. German is definetly guilty of that, too. just adding clause after clause, nesting them within each other in a way you can easily get lost in a sentence that's like a whole page long. One thought, one sentence.

I dunno, I thought that Berlin was rather interesting, and had the right kind of crazy.

My current residence's tagline is "The city that fun forgot." I doubt Germany's worse.
