    I mentioned this in the chat, but I'll say it here, too -- I discovered tons of new emoticons while restoring our missing ones. Anything you'd like an emoticon for, that I should add?

    The post is old but if the message is still valid, a thinking smiley and a finger crossed smiley would be great. :original:

    In case somebody is interested in what I've eaten the last days:

    dinner of 24 December = raclette

    dinner of 25 December = raclette

    dinner of 26 December = raclette

    dinner of 27 December = no, I'm alone at home, I'm not going to eat raclette again. :floor:

    :licks_lips:

    Edit: At 27 December, I actually thought that I wouldn't eat raclette this year anymore, but nope, I was wrong. :lol3:

     

    My friend, where I ate 26 December, asked me what I'm doing New Year's Eve and I told her that it looks like I'm spending New Year's Eve alone. She took pity on me and asked if I wanted to eat with her and her family. She said she still had to clarify that, but it shouldn't really be a problem. I wrote to her today and asked if it was ok. She replied and said it was ok and said they were doing raclette again and asked me if that was ok for me. And since I'm not an a*hole, I said yes, it's ok. :floor:

     

    This beats my record from another year, where I ate fondue chinoise three times in a few days during the Christmas season. This Christmas, I haven't eaten fondue chinoise or any other fondue once. It almost seems to me that raclette is the only dish this Christmas. Not that I'm complaining, since I don't have to cook myself, but a fondue certainly wouldn't go amiss as a change. :lmao:

    Is there a German word for "I've eaten and drunk too much"?  :wink2:

    Hmm, "drunk too much" is easy, there are several words:

    drunk = betrunken, besoffen (coll.), alkoholisiert, blau ("blau" literally means blue, yes, when you say in German that you are blue you are drunk and not sad, important to know :wink2:)...

     

    :insane:

     

    "For eaten too much" I had to think longer.

    When you have eaten enough you say that you are "satt". When you have eaten too much, you can say: "ich platze" = literally it means something like "I burst".

    Lied = song

    I hope you had a little bit fun with learning German (with a person there mother tongue is strictly speaking not German :teehee:, don't worry, I know what I'm doing, at least what this concerns :lmfao:)

     

    Merry Christmas to everyone.

    That looks a very interesting cake - what's it made of?  I assume it is a traditional cake.

    It's made out of sweet yeast dough. That's how it looks like in Switzerland. In one of the pieces is the plastic king. The person who catches the piece with the plastik king is for the rest of the day the king/the queen and can put the crown on. Yes, it is a traditional cake. It is only sold at the 6 January and some days before and afterwards. Most people buy it at 6 January. There are (according to Wikipedia) sold every year 1,5 millions of this cake in Switzerland (there are around 8,5 millions people in Switzerland). Almost every household buys it (there are of course also smaller king cakes than the cake above). :original:

    @Prisca ciaoo mi puoi aiutare come faccio ad attivare le notifiche di instagram sul computer? 

     

    Ciao @Paoletta, scusa non sono tanto brava con Instagram, non lo so. Se apro Instagram di nuovo mi chiede qualche volta se voglio delle notifiche, ma altrimenti non lo so. Non ho attivato le notiche al momento, scusa.

     

    Magari @Gabry74 può aiutarti.

    The fourteenth German word:

     

    Mistelzweig = mistletoe

     

    Mistel = mistletoe (yes, it already means "mistletoe", but normally we talk about "Mistelzweig" when it's about this thing you are supposed to kiss each other when you are beneath, not that this tradition actually exists in the German speaking zone but as it is there also possible to watch Hollywood movies... :lol3:)

    Zweig = branch
