You sense she is speaking German a bit more slowly than she normally would. Finally she returns to English.<br/><br/>"Your German is progressing, Herr Kapitan. However you must work on your 'ch' -- too soft and you will sound Swiss. Too hard and you will sound like a Bavarian. A Berliner speaks exactly so."<br/></blockquote><div class="quotefooter"><div class="botslice_quote"></div></div><br/>"Thank you Frau, I'll keep that in mind," Gordon assured her as the impromptu practice session came to an end. He hadn't been in Germany for that long, but it was his understanding that Bavarians were basically seen as 'country bumpkins'. For someone who had to work in Berlin, such an association might not be for the best when it came to interacting with the people here.<br/><br/>Still, it was good to have something to work on. Now he knew what to focus on in his next practice session. For now he made a mental note in the back of his mind. The job had to come first, at least until they had found what he was looking for.
