“Dog Days of Summer German Style”
The “Dog Days of Summer” are upon us. We are in the “Sauregurkenzeit”! In fact, you may even be experiencing “Sauregurkenzeit” right now! It's that time during the summer when nothing seems to be happening, when everyone's on vacation or just a little lazy from the heat. The word came into use in the late 18th century in Berlin and probably related to the pickles from the Spree Forest that hit the stores at the end of the summer. Fortunately, though, strange German words are available year round. The beginning of the school year will break that cycle, but until then…enjoy your “Gurken”! By the way….”pickles” in Russian are “Oгурцы”. Bis nächste Woche! Всего хорошего!
