minus-squaretrollercoaster@feddit.delinkfedilinkDeutscharrow-up0·1 year agoWelcome to the world of German idioms. Today’s lesson: If you want to point out that a place is particularly messy, you say: Das sieht aus, als ob da eine Bombe eingeschlagen hätte. meaning: This looks as if it has been hit by a bomb. This is quite adequate to describe even the messiest of places.

minus-squarefederalreverse-old@feddit.delinkfedilinkDeutscharrow-up0·edit-21 year agoAlternatively: “Hier sieht’s aus wie bei Hempels unter Sofa.” (It looks like under the Hempel family’s couch.) “Hier sieht’s aus wie bei den Hottentotten.” (It looks like … uh … the land of a people genocided by colonial Germany. Slightly problematic, that one.)
