Can you translate these words and phrases?
If you can get these phrases right, you are an expert at German.
To make it fun, the person who translates the most words and phrases right is the winner and holds bragging rights.
I'll check who the winner is in 3 weeks time.
Use the "Google Translater" if you need help
If the translater is wrong I will say the correct answer is what the translater says.
Good luck!

Not trying to be mean Lischen89 but please don't post the translations for these phrases because I'm hoping that someone who doesn't know a lot of German can translate them.
Thanks!

Hey Lischen89!
Would you like to be the judge for this competition? I felt a bit sad when I said you weren't allowed in the competition but I have found a good place for you!
Just tell me what you think.

Michigan Frog should be the winner because she was the first one who entered and had no chance to copy all these words from a forerunner and she tried to correct her translation, tried to find out which words were wrong...I can't see this by an other participator...
What do you think poopstick?!

A special thanks to:
All the other entrants. Hey, look on the bright side, you learnt some German didn't you?
Lischen89. It's lucky enough to have someone who is fluent in German on this site but to have them as judge for a German speaking competition, that's as lucky as winning the lotto
No thanks to:
Google Translator. Don't even THINK about going on this site.
Once again, thanks to all entrants and Lischen89.
Auf Wiedersehen!
