    • Who would ever say "west in Berlin"? I mean, people say "South London" all the time, and the city isn't exactly divided. Also, all of Berlin (including West Berlin) was in East Germany; the division of the city was geographically (though not politically, of course) independent of the division of the country.

  • Do you mean the Swiss play from ABoFaL? I go along with you so far as Stephen may have a little clue what he is saying (he's the one who learnt the whole old languages canon at school). But I still think when it comes to pronunciation, Hugh can pronounce the sounds I mentioned above better and in the Swiss play, although Hugh messed up on the verb riechen, his sentence structure was by far harder than Stephen's.
