	What about Uhr for hour??

	weizenugb:	Mar 2nd, 2010 at 18:10 GMT	13 points
	Uhr doesn't mean hour, it means clock. Saying "5 Uhr" is akin to saying "5 o'clock" in English. The word for hour is "Stunde".

	Stop -- Hammerzeit!

	oh my. Spelled hundert in my family's dialect about 5 different times, wondering why it wouldn't take for century.

	I scored in the 107th percentile? That can't be right.

	I thought uhr was hour too! You learn something new every day.

	Ha...when I was learning time in German I also thought Uhr was Hour. So I asked my German friend if I could say "Was ist die Uhr?" And he groanded and told me that it was double wrong.

	@ohil, if you are hurt by that, I worry for you.

	Clearly my spelling failed on this one. I could say most of them but was leaving some letters out apparantly. Bleurgh.

	I'm missing viertel, german for 15 minutes.

	weizenugb:	Mar 3rd, 2010 at 18:22 GMT	2 points
	But Viertel really means "quarter" or "fourth"

	I'm reminded when I take these quizzes that I don't speak German. :)

	"Decade" could also be translated as "Dekade". You should include that as an acceptable answer.

	Ich liebe Deutsch. Ich liebe Sporcle. Und dass stimmt... Dekade ist auch ein Wort fuer Jahrzehnt.

	@greebles: No, I think ohil was right. German speaking nations are much more sensitive about flags and national symbols, you never know who'd be offended by that.
