Because the animosity between Catalonia and the rest of Spain is about the same the dislike between ze Swiss and ze Germans. Cerveza which in most languages would be pronounced “servesa” is here “thervetha”. And in case you’re stupid or haven’t ever travelled cerveza means beer. Gracias means thank you. Or should I say “grathiath”? And here is me still trying out my German whenever I can, having gotten to the stage where I can use the “z”. Now all of a sudden I’ve gotta learn “th”. Why is it that I always feel I have a steep learning curve? When can I ever sit back and relax and say “I’ve learned enough in my life”? Never (no s’s in that word :) is probably the answer…
