Learn German with GermanPod101.com! You’re on vacation in Germany with your friend, and now you’re souvenir shopping in Berlin. You know your friends and relatives back home will expect you to return to the States bearing an armful of European gifts. “Look at this,” your friend says, “a piece of the Berlin Wall! How cool is that?” You look at the little chip in his hand doubtfully. “The Wall fell a long time ago,” you note. “I’m surprised there’s any of it left to sell.” Your friend waves the piece of “wall” in your face. “Well, obviously there is. You think they’d sell fake stuff here? I think I’ll get this for my uncle. He was actually in Europe when the Wall fell.” Wondering if your friend is really that gullible, you say, “Well, I guess it could be real. Anyway, shall we pay for these? I’m happy with what I’ve gotten.”
