Hehe... this is how scrambled egg is called in German.. New vocab learnt today in class! Rühr = scrambled das Ei = egg ('das' indicates that egg is neutral in gender) (by the way, all German nouns are capitalized) Therefore, rühr + das Ei = das Rührei = scrambled egg Ever wondered why some German words are so long? such as 'Arbeitsunfähigkeitsbescheinigung' The mechanism of building such a length of words is actually simple. Simply add them up. Ganz einfach! Hehe... learn German.. it's fun!
