Hi Robert,
Anglophones? Is that a cell phone that translated American into
English? Rather like a spellchecker. What a good idea
Given that the German term for a cellphone is
Handy, what would you call one used in the
(lost or flushed away in translation......)
And when travelling by train
about this we make no bones:
we all like "quiet coaches"
because there are no 'phones.
