Du bist aber auh immer im Recht, oder?

Laß es uns aber jetzt dabei bewenden lassen, mein Lieber - dieser Thread und der liebe Serkan haben ohnehin schon genug unter unseren hemmungslosen Abschweifungen zu leiden gehabt...

BTW,

I somehow missed this part of KvRs history, where does this "hun" thing come from (saw it the first time in putte's context) and what exactly does it mean? And yes, I prefer "real" answers although I think I couldn't get any on this subject.

Best wishes, FRitz

It is the word the English used to describe the Germans during the World Wars. Its use evokes the archetypal enemy invaders (the Hun armies, especially Attila the Hun).

Wikipedia has this backgrounder for it, but I'm not sure if the lineage is as tidy as all that:

On July 27, 1901, during the Boxer Rebellion in China, Kaiser Wilhelm II gave the order to "make the name 'German' remembered in China for a thousand years, so that no Chinaman will ever again dare to even squint at a German". This speech, wherein Wilhelm invoked the memory of the 5th-century Huns, coupled with the Pickelhaube or spiked helmet worn by German forces until 1916, that was reminiscent of ancient Hun (and Hungarian) helmets, gave rise to the later derogatory English usage of the latter term for their German enemy during World War I. This usage was reinforced by Allied propaganda throughout the war, prompting hatred of the Germans by invoking the idea that they were brutal savages.

Aha,

I -sometimes- thought there's something wrong with you!!!

Have fun, FRitz

P.S. Thanx Shamann for the history lesson. I was totally unaware of these parts of our sad history. As if we didn't have enough of sad parts in our german history ...
