The view of the park is nice, too. I wrote my first letter at the antique desk yesterday&#8212;such a thrill!</p> felicity http://faerye.net/post/the-equal-and-opposite-forces-of-weekend#comment-1125 2004-03-30T08:32:01+00:00 2004-03-30T08:32:01+00:00 <p>I had kinda hoped you would let me know if I erred, actually. I couldn&#8217;t get my hands on mfc&#8217;s letter in which the word was suggested, so I just guessed and went with it, hoping I had all the letters right and wasn&#8217;t missing any umlauts.<br /> <br /> So thank you! :) I will edit it. And I&#8217;d forgotten about capitalizing&#8212;which is logical, given that the extent of my current German knowledge is two songs by Bach, which tend towards the sort of nouns Christians capitalize anyways :)</p> felicity http://faerye.net/post/the-equal-and-opposite-forces-of-weekend#comment-1124 2004-03-30T08:24:20+00:00 2004-03-30T08:24:20+00:00 <p>I was very impressed with your lamp, it is perty. I can tell you will have many creative hours in that room, you lucky girl.

As a final piece of useless trivia, I might add that the Germans capitalize <i>all</i> their nouns. Alright, I think I&#8217;ve displayed sufficient obsessive behavior for one post, now&#8230;</p> GreyStork
