don't get me started wrote:I find myself interested more in the kinds of things we have been discussing here like 'eat/dink/take' or other small things like Gehen/ Fahren in German and the parallels in Russian Идти/Ехать which differentiate going by foot or going by transport, something English doesn't really bother about.
German speakers don't bother about the distinction between gehen and fahren any more than English speakers bother about the distinction between going and driving. At least not in my experience.
