Let's All Take A Trip To Germany

Automatic Washer - The world's coolest Washing Machines, Dryers and Dishwashers

Help Support :

Yes, these were meant to be accompanied by a spin dryer, indeed the preference would be from the same brand. These compact machines (the washing machine is around 65cm high) were designed for smaller housing where there was no space for a full size Waschbüffet.

AFAIK Vorwerk never manufactured a washing machine by itself, but were always relabeled machines, often AEG's.
 
Ahh yes! European machines. I always find the styling differences between Europe and the US to be interesting.
 
und dabei gibt's auch ...

an, auf, hinter, in, neben, vor, unter, ueber, zswischen.

Und dazu stehen noch:

fuer, um, durch gegen, entlang, bis, ohne, wider - IMMER AKUSATIV

The ad for Sunil was also very cute. Although I don't understand how we got from rinsing without additives to ready for the line ... without a mangle or spinner in sight ...
 
German has four cases

Which makes things very easy for native English speakers who grew up before the 'objective' case abomination of the past 30 years.

Like hell we we don't distinguish between Accusative and Dative in English. Just, we use syntactical grammar to make the distinction or transitive verbs.
 
Maybe 12,000,000 Germans emigrated to USA 1870-1920 in order to flee German grammar ;) (meine Ururgrosseltern waren in 1878 aus Ostpreußen angekommen----sparsam, fleißig, pünktlich, und sehr, sehr DICKKÖPFIG)
 
One aspect of grammar for which I am ridiculed: Konjunktiv I:

"Panthera sagte, daß die Speise im neuen Restaurant sehr gut seien (Meinungsfrage)"

versus

"Panthera sagte, das der neue Restaurant Montags geschlossen ist" (Tatsache)

They just laugh and insist that NO ONE uses Konjunktiv I in spoken German any more. They would just use "sind".
