David, this is the first of your comics I've seen here. Google Translator translates literally, it don't care about grammar and for myself I learned it's useless to translate accurately.
I don't know where you live but to me it seems your German is good enough to read for example newspapers in this language to learn how to speak an write it. To me, English papers like International Herald Tribune and English books are very helpful.
My English is far away from being perfect but it helps.
Hi Karsten. Unfortunately if you've read any of the other comics I put on here in German, you'll most likely know that I use Google Translate to translate the English version.
Thank you for the correction though. I wish they had a much more accurate translator online, it would really help.
Funny part about it is, I am part German myself. I don't speak the language, but I have German blood in me from my late father's side.
David, I'd suggest to write at the first panel "...von mir und Frank, ALS wir sechs Jahre alt waren" and at the 2nd panel "...Eigentlich war Frank dabei zu lernen...". Don't worry, often enough, I'm suggested to re-write my cartoons because I've got some trouble with English grammar and spelling.
Danke Fury! Ich war zu entscheiden, ob ich das Bild sollte gezeigt haben oder nicht, aber ich fühlte, daß die Phantasie des Lesers von dem, was das Foto sieht aus wie wäre es lustiger. LOL
