minus-squaredenaggels@feddit.orglinkfedilinkarrow-up12·2 days agoEven as a native I had to read it like 4 times. But you can build it similarly in English. “When the new colleague is younger than you work in the company.” It’s just a confusing sentence
minus-squareWIZARD POPE💫@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up6·2 days agoYeah it really is odd. Even what you wrote makes little sense in english. Does it not mean like “when your colleague is younger than the time you have been working at the company”
minus-squaregroet@feddit.orglinkfedilinkarrow-up6·2 days agoIt is (probably) supposed to mean that. It doesn’t though, because it is missing half of the words. Its just a very bad sentence that doesn’t make sense.
minus-squareWIZARD POPE💫@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up2·2 days agoYeah I was talking about the intended meaning. It did take me 3 times coming upon the meme to finally get the joke.

minus-squareTh3D3k0y@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up3·2 days agoThe best I had with how little I actually understand German was “when the new younger colleague, ? you ? in work.” I wasn’t too far off
