I finally think I’m beginning to get to grips with this strange version of German called Austrian, and then I meet another dog owner in the dog park who proceeds to talk at me non-stop for a good 45 minutes. And I can honestly say I only got about half of what he was saying. That means: I missed half of it. I simply don’t understand the noises that come out between the words. They COULD carry meaning. I don’t know.
