So, I see nothing - although I'm not aware of any thread by the OP that I wouldn't watch; I also don't see it under "new posts."I replied to you in your other thread! Do you get something like this here?

I do not always receive a notification for new entries in the threads I am watching either.Also, I see nothing - although I am not aware of any thread from the OP that I would not be watching; I also do not see it with "new posts".
Moinschd etzed, mir kennet älles ausr Hochdaidsch ?Sure, the spouse may not be fully proficient in the German language, but I would still use the "we-form," even if it were actually "my" task/work.
No one has the intention to build a wall :-)This alone for reasons of togetherness and (hopefully) shared mindset. At least here in building a soundproof wall.
As I have already mentioned, I have had several years of therapy, and there I learned that especially with people who say a lot of "we" or "one" instead of "I," something is usually a bit off. ;) These are evasive formulations. I was nudged for years whenever I used such evasive words, so at some point I stopped doing it. ;) In most of the cases mentioned above I used "I" because I am the one who would/wants to do it. Why should my husband, who speaks broken German, conduct a contract phone call or write an advertisement? Why should I have him plant the plants that I bought? ... etc.I miss the "we-form" in all of kati’s explanations. It says: - I have to make a phone call ... - I have to build a (soundproof) wall ... - I try to fill the sandbox - I try to plant the plants ... - At least: I would have to advertise that WE are looking ... - At the property boundary I would have to get approval ... Sure, the spouse may not be fully proficient in German, but I would still use the "we-form," even if it was actually "my" task/work. This alone for reasons of togetherness and (hopefully) the same mindset. At least here when building a soundproof wall. It doesn’t have to mean anything, it just catches my eye ...
Gather all your courage and tell him or show him this post, that just can't be.
