Help with German
Hi, I need help with a couple of expressions in German (?).I think it’s supposed to be a joke.
Man 1:Sprechen Sie Deutsch?
Man 2:Jawohl
Man 1:Then droppen Sie dead.
Man 2:Always mit the jokes.
Question 1: is the expression “droppen sie dead” good German or is it just words taken from English that look German?
Question 2: what’s the meaning of “mit” in this context?
I’d be grateful if someone can give me a hand!!

these vs. them in Modern Greek
Hi! I have a question. If I wanted to say "I want those" in Modern Greek and "those" referred to one thing that is male and another that is female, would I say it as "autoi tous thelo"? Or can I only refer to "them" and therefore cannot use "those"? What if I were saying one male thing and one neuter thing or one female thing and one male thing? If someone could help I'd be very thankful!

Re:For Mr Therapy and his needed italian Translation !
I’ve seen some other comments on this poem, and I agree with you, on the fact that if you read beyond the mere lines, it does make sense, no matter what language it’s written in.
Of course, I do respect other people’s outlook for in fact that’s what literature is about, isn’t it?, ie viewpoints, feelings, etc, which may vary from person to person.
To my mind, both translations are very well interpeted.

What's the English for...
What do you call a long distance bus whose seats can be lowered in such a way that passangers can sleep comfortably while travelling at night?
Yesterday I saw one such bus on the highway, and on the rear it read "sleeping bus". Is this term correct? It sounds odd to me, kind of taken from a fairy tale or sth., but well, I’m not a native speaker of English, so who knows, maybe it’s right
If there's anyone interested, in Argentina we call it "coche cama".
