ein panzer hinter diesem haus hat gerade 2 squads abgesaebelt

abgesäbelt, I like that. For slaughtered there also goes: aufgerieben,vernichtet,gemetzelt,zerrissen,zerfetzt.... the first two are quite formal and can be used most of the time, the last three are kinda informal and should only be used if you know the guys you are talking to good.

@Bubba: D'oh, the most obvious again .

Now that I am not half sleeping a better help on pronounciation of Sanitäter:

Sani- short, like "sunny" but with a soft "s".
Täter- long, a bit like "tatter" but spoken slowlier and with an ä instead of the a.

And, for those moments when you are tked by a n00b, or frustrated by the other team may I suggest a selection from this website: http://www.insultmonger.com/swearing/german.htm

Ein Panzer hinter diesem Gebäude hat gerade zwei Gruppen abgeschlachtet.

What about beer and whiskey ?

Beer = Bier

Whiskey = Whiskey

Working in a telecom company, I had a german customer calling asking for somebody who spoke fluently german. I asked my teammates to please take the call for me.

After a while one from the senior staff looked at me and asked why I couldn't take the call? I look him straight in the eye and said: Well, as long as the customer is willing to take orders and hear shouts of "SNIPER!", "attack left flank!", "grenade, TAKE COVER!", I could take the call.

Offcourse, in true MOH:AA spirit I yelled every tagline i knew. 7 years later, he is still scared of me.

YEH! can we get some jackboots for the officer kit?? LOL!

I'd like to brush up on my German too but its such a complicated lang coupled with my debilitating and weakened old age i find it hard to learn new things

Anyhow in my exp ive found that all German squads are usually quite accommodating to non german speaking players. I know its kinda wrong for anyone to expect ppl to speak a diff lang just because of one in a squad that doesnt. There are squads that welcome english speaking players I must give Kudos to those who do this, they dont have to but they do, kinda revives my faith in human nature a bit.

On the other hand it also makes me feel a bit inept that i havent taken the time to learn atleast a little of their native lang, but the english speaking germans can sometimes pronounce and speak better english than i do!

Must admit though i do like playing alongside english speaking germans.., their sense of humour cracks me up bigtime.
