| POST |
| Eric: Listen again to Franziska's post. |
| Clara: So viele Erinnerungen! |
| Eric: "So many memories!" |
| Clara: (SLOW) So viele Erinnerungen! (Regular) So viele Erinnerungen! |
| Eric: Let's break this down. First is an expression meaning "so many." |
| Clara: so viele |
| Eric: is a casual remark, it can be used whenever you unexpectedly find many of the same things in one place. Listen again- "so many" is... |
| Clara: (SLOW) so viele (REGULAR) so viele |
| Eric: Then comes the phrase - "memories." |
| Clara: Erinnerungen |
| Eric: It is quite common to use a short expression like "so many memories", not a full sentence such as "I have so many memories" or "this brings up so many memories" and to allude to something without going into detail, only for friends to pick up on what you are trying to say. Listen again- "memories" is... |
| Clara: (SLOW) Erinnerungen (REGULAR) Erinnerungen |
| Eric: All together, "So many memories!" |
| Clara: So viele Erinnerungen! |
