I know the history of Saint Nicholas and Black Pete.
Hah, everyone but the Americans (

) know Santa Claus hasn't lived in the North Pole since the 1920s and resides in Lapland, North Finland nowadays.

German's grammar is a bit tricky yes until you get into it, with all the exceptions and exceptions of exceptions. Vocabulary wise it has quite a bit in common with Swedish which made it much easier to learn for me because Swedish is the second main language here after Finnish.

I really wish I pushed hard towards learning a language in school. Took it as a doss lesson, really regret it now. Would give my right nut to speak fluent portugese, german or russian.

My left nut is twice the size of my right. If I lose the right, I can say they were both massive. If I lose the left one then it'll look like they were just average sized.
My own personal spin on the "give my left nut" saying. Too much info yet?

On the german note, there are harder languages to learn.
Ive worked with a chinese lad called "Hu" for the past 6 months and i still cant pronounce it correctly

Personally i think germans easier than french.

Yeah. German isn't that hard. Took two years of it at university. Suck it up and get on with it
