Eating Lots of Wiener (Schnitzel)

When we first got into Vienna I thought the place seemed very hostile because everywhere I looked, signs said "Die" on them. After asking a native, she said that it meant "the" and I could stop worrying. Needless to say, I blushed.

So far my German vocabulary includes the following words: die, nazi, wiener shnitzel, and joop, although I don't actually know what the last one means. And instead of "hello" they say "hallo." So I picked up on that.

I ate a ton of weiner in Vienna. Every chance I could I ate weiner. The only place they didn't serve it was at this Asian restaurant we went to one night. Other than that, I was stuffed full of weiner.
