Facebooking in German

For the blog, I decided to go onto Facebook for an hour to do my usual stalking but this time in German.

Here are a few of the phrases I picked up on:

Gefalt mir: Like

Kommentieren: Comment

Via Handy: Via mobile app

in einer Bezienung mit: In a relationship with

Pinnwand: Wall

gemeinsame Freunde: mutual friends

Startseite: Home

Suche: Search

Freundin hinzufugen: send friend request

er hat heute Geburtstag: It's his Birthday

Zum Geburtstag gratulieren: Say Happy Birthday

Teilen: Share

It was fun "Gefalt mir" mein "Fruende" statuses and it made consider keeping my Facebook on German all the time to see the real practices of German. I also stalked my old foreign exchange student's Facebook page to see if I could read any of the things she had posted recently. Surprisingly, I could recognize quite a few words and could get the "just" of almost all of her statuses!
