My rarified Panzer 4 wants to be like that when he is big.

Do Germans still call tanks panzers? I'm surprised.

Yeah, of course. Why not? What should we call them instead?  :lol: Panzer/Panzerung is just the german word for armour.

I just thought it was a WW2 thing! Then again, I hated studying German at school!

Of course you can, my dear friend.  :D

Actually, not to sound rude, but "panzer" means "tank." "Armor" is "Rüstung."

I am ze Übermensch!

Well, you certainly would translate panzer with tank in the context we speak of. But the word tank as a name for a armoured fighting vehicle stems from a code name to confuse the axis in ww1 as far as i know. The british tried to mask their new vehicle with the name tank, as in, a tank for a liquid. So the axis would think they would just build boilers, or something like that, the name just stuck in the anglosphere i guess.

 

The Germans used the word tank too in the beginning, but then gave the new invention a german name, panzer, The german word for armour. Panzer/Panzerung und Rüstung mean the same, like you said, armour. The german word for the tank that holds liquid is actually exactly the same as in english, tank.

Well you are right, as am I. Goes to show what is lost in translation.  :lol:

I took a little German last year, and I am brushing up on the insults courtesy of the TF2 Medic.  :lol:

Is Rarity's coat really officially 'light grey'? WHAT IS THIS MADNESS??

 

Well, silver and platinum are also light grey. :D

After looking at various prices on various levels of qualities of plushies, it seemed like the best way to go!

True. I wish I had some artistic talent beyond writing...

 

Well, I suppose I have some. I am making Magic: The Gathering cards...

How did she obtain that height? Did she use stilts or did she use magic to make herself taller?
