Is learning another language's vocabulary easy?

Here in Germany, it's called "Ich packe meinen Koffer" ('I pack my suitcase' or however it is in English). I remember I once played it the same way Ozy and Millie played it. It really becomes a challenge, though, if you mix up totally ridiculous things like "the left front door window of my red Mercedes SLK" with "a tree". Amazingly, in the end, the little words were the ones you couldn't remember.<br><br>Of course, next time I will also take a Glorblethwonk with me. Could someone tell me what Glorblethwonk means in German? <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://definecynical.mancubus.net/forum ... iggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif' /><!--endemo-->
Back home in Germany, I always wonder what to write in my signature. Here, I can at least tell you I'm German, and that any mistakes I make in spelling, grammar or other matters are completely natural considering I'm not speaking my mother tongue here.<br><br>I like to play Chess, by the way. Not that anyone would care.
