      I forgot that your heathens use “.” Instead of “,” in numbers. I was very confused

        Swiss system is best system: apostrophes for thousands, either dot or comma for decimals. Completely unambiguous for anyone even if you’re seeing it for the first time: 12’345.67

          That is interesting. I like it. Wondering if I can use it at work or in code. Hmmm

          In my learning a decimal point comes after the integer. So it would mean 1km == 1 m

      Hmm, let me try.

      No. This is not for German learning. Then you can’t shit post in the Spray Machine.

      How close did I get?

        Pretty close, but you skipped some nouns and you have too many "not"s in your sentence. The correct translation is “no, that is the time for learning German. Then you can shitpost in two languages”. Zeit is the word for time, and Sprachen means languages.

          Thank you!

          Zeit threw me off and had no idea what Sprachen machen meant.
