Internet pros: you can ask stuff to The People™ and receive a variety of answers

Internet cons: you make the Germans discuss about what's the proper way of saying something

@kitten I usually avoid those. Especially since my German is not the strongest. Bavarians and proper German...

As long as it feels right, it's right for me

@kitten oh i thought doing so would be helpful to you as having several sources for how something is usually said gives one more intuition for how a language varies and to which degree sayings are allowed to vary in grammar

but if that is a negative for you, i will stop that

@kitten Ah, ich verstehe, dann habe ich das wohl fälschlicherweise für bare Münze genommen!

(here "für bare Münze nehmen" (bare coin) is an idiom, which means taking something literally)

@alina (I also like being replied to in German 💙although I get that that's a bit more effort, and I'll probably take a while to be able to answer back in anything other than English)
