I always preferred the mental visual imagery of ‘durchfall’

Wow. I think the big changeover here will be the electric vehicle. By default they’re auto and will determine the future of transmission type as they become more common. We also have a culture of passing the driving test in a manual, so that you can drive both. An automatic driving license does not allow us to drive manual vehicles.

No umlauts, just keep adding vowels and it’s more or less done isn’t it?

Haha, I remember trying to tell a German colleague that another colleague was ‘ingverklerten’ because he had red hair, apparently the German word for ginger is not used to represent colour. Almost as popular as our attempt to call someone a ‘glockenende’ when they had been foolish. Sounds like I should look into ich_iel a bit.

Is that really not common? I’m in the U.K., and <30% of cars might be auto, when I look at used car sales these days.

Has anyone actually watched this, every time I see a trailer for it, I just think it looks terrible. Just seems like the BBC had a meeting about trying to cover cancel culture and this is the result.

Is it a phallacy?

Ash separators and flue gas desulphurisation. That keeps the stack from having grey/brown or yellow fumes, which would contain the ash as solids to drop out or the sulphur dioxide that contributes to acid rain. Cooling towers are of course only water vapour, so as long as the visible emission of the central thin stack on a coal power station is white, it’s running clean.
