This has started happening to me worryingly often in German, I fear soon I will speak 2 languages quite well, but none fluently.

[–] crabonhead@sh.itjust.works 3 points 5 hours ago

Welcome to the Club. I have to seriously concentrate to speak German without interjecting English words/phrases.

The Eiffel tower, a national landmark of the US.

[–] FozzyOsbourne@lemm.ee 2 points 5 hours ago

It's all red, white and blue, innit?

[–] BastingChemina@slrpnk.net 11 points 9 hours ago* (last edited 9 hours ago) (1 children)

Fun fact:

The Eiffel tower and the Statue of liberty have both been built by the same engineer: Gustave Eiffel.

[–] NoSpotOfGround@lemmy.world 4 points 5 hours ago

And they were both built in France.

That one's a replica. The real one is at Kings Island in Ohio.

I like the two pairs of tweezers held prongs to palm as the bbq tongs. Or are they wishbones???

And the holding of a super stacked slider crosswise just by the fixings.

And the Escher-esqe arrangement of the kettle grill in the background, inside of which is placed a ginormous burger that has somehow migrated in front of the grillists elbow.

Also blue sausage

How do you like your meat cooked? Blue

This is definitely not American .... not a gun in sight

[–] ChicoSuave@lemmy.world 32 points 1 day ago

That's because there's no schools in the picture.

[–] DavidGarcia@feddit.nl 8 points 1 day ago

no opioids either

[–] essell@lemmy.world 6 points 1 day ago

Indeed, Americans don't even speak English for the most part.

[–] riodoro1@lemmy.world 36 points 1 day ago

Oh look, its a piece of AI shit.

I also hate slop, but it's the best representation of 'Murica that I've ever seen. I accept this one.

[–] TheAlbatross@lemmy.blahaj.zone 26 points 1 day ago (2 children)

Yah, when I think of America, I think of the Eifel Tower.

Nonsense. It's shit from a butt and it shouldn't be in front of human eyes.

[–] LucasWaffyWaf@lemmy.world 8 points 1 day ago

Nah what are ya talking about, America's got Paris! Two of 'em in fact. The Eiffel Tower stays.

(nah fuck this AI slop, it looks like dogshit)

I always forget what soggy is in swedish, but most of us are fluent enough to understand our swenglish if we just inject the english word

[–] zxqwas@lemmy.world 6 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Do we have a word for it? Google translate suggestions are unsatisfactory to me .

[–] name_NULL111653@pawb.social 4 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Are any of these about right? I'm just beginner in Swedish (native English) but they seem pretty close.

[–] zxqwas@lemmy.world 4 points 13 hours ago

I'd say blöt and degig translates to wet and doughy and they are about as close as wet or doughy. Maybe a nuance we're missing a word for in Swedish.

[–] rumba@lemmy.zip 7 points 1 day ago (1 children)

I like the two eagles the blue sausage kind of scares me though

[–] Lazycog@sopuli.xyz 5 points 1 day ago

Wait until you see a blue waffle (NSFL)

Barbequein with tweezers, wowee

[–] glowie@h4x0r.host 4 points 1 day ago
