Nope. All heads present and correct!! :laughing: :laughing: :laughing:

:confused: Some crafty cockerny in Hyde Park with a fool proof way to escape Red Kens Congestion charge :laughing: :laughing:

A 35 yard volley into the top corner, mm. :laughing: :laughing: :laughing:
Yer actual Hyde Park in London on Thames.
Congestion charge not applicable to horsey types in fancy dress!! :laughing: :laughing: :laughing:

:open_mouth: Holy [zb] I wasn’t being serious neither :laughing: :laughing: :laughing: :laughing: :laughing:

Note to self : buy stuffed horse and mount on front of wagon to avoid congestion charge :smiley: might not work but will look better than ponsy [zb]ing spotlights :wink:

Nowt wrong with a speculative punt.
'Scuse my French!! :laughing: :laughing: :laughing:

Aye, that’s how I ended up with kids :laughing: :laughing: :laughing: :laughing:

Inselaffe:
Romanes eunt domus

For that you need the imperative :exclamation:
[That would be Befehlsmodus to you Herr Inselaffe :wink: ]

:laughing: :laughing: MM and Denis F caught sleeping on duty :laughing: :laughing: (Again :exclamation: )

:blush: :blush: :blush:

Happens a lot these days DD :laughing:

Hmm…MM wasn’t that clever of Inselaffe though?? He sneaked that quietly into his signature :open_mouth: maybe he thought I wouldn’t spot it… :laughing:
Is Denis F coming out to play tonight I wonder??

it’s “Romani ite domum” :wink: :laughing: :laughing:

now write it 100 times

Denis F:
it’s “Romani ite domum” :wink: :laughing: :laughing:

now write it 100 times

Yes, sir. Thank you, sir. Hail Caesar, sir. :laughing: :laughing: :laughing:

You’re nicked me old beauty :exclamation: :wink:

Denis F:
it’s “Romani ite domum” :wink: :laughing: :laughing:

Hi dieseldave.

At the risk of being an Überpedant, it is Befehlsform (or der Imperativ)!! :wink: :wink: :laughing:

Oh no there multiplying :open_mouth: :laughing:

Inselaffe:
Hi dieseldave.

Not at all Überpedant Inselaffe, because both “Befehlsmodus” and “Befehlsform” have the same meaning and are both correct.

If you check my word, you see it says “Sprachw.” :wink:
As further evidence, Modus also has “Sprachw.” in some dictionaries.
Just as a little test, please look up the word “Modus.”

Langenscheidts GroßwÜrterbuch Deutsch als Fremdsprache:
2 Ling; die Grammatische Kategorie des Verbs, mit der man den Willen od. die Wahrscheinlichkeit ausdrßcken kann: Indikativ, Konjunktiv u. Imperative sind die Modi des Deutschen

:open_mouth: There’s not one word of English in that book :exclamation: :open_mouth:

Like anything else in German, it’s far from plain sailing :smiling_imp:

However, I’d instantly agree that the word you used is possibly the better of the two :wink:
Would you agree that I wasn’t entirely wrong :question:

Even an Überpedant can’t argue with Langenscheidts!! :laughing: :laughing: :laughing:
I doff my hat in your direction. :wink: :wink: Nice one, Dave.
Ich wurde eines besseren belehrt!!! :laughing: :laughing: :laughing:

Inselaffe:
Ich wurde eines besseren belehrt!!! :laughing: :laughing: :laughing:

I wouldn’t say that TBH.
I still reckon that the word you chose would be better understood and in wider useage. :wink:
My choice was equally correct, but with hindsight, maybe rather “technical” IMHO.
I was doing full I.O.L. until circumstances forced me out. :cry:
