Wandering around a furniture shop the other day, I couldn't understand the description of a sofa with "Nosagunterfederung".

The mixture of English and Deutsch threw my comprehension out until my wife spotted that
the sofa will not sag and has a collection of springs in its base to help with this attribute.

I told my German friend at the Kneipe that I work Sudoku puzzles daily, and he said many here refer to them as „So, du Kuh“ puzzles. :lol:
