Hello,

​

I am trying to learn German by trying to read a comic in German. I have a few sentences that I was not able to understand completely. Because word by word translation makes no sense:

​

Dieses Mal stammt von keinem Menschenhaus.(No clue how to interpret this)

Eine wilde Schonnheit fur Ihre wilden Vorlieben. A wild beauty for your wild interests/tastes?

1. In English while addressing multiple people we can say as I understand same: just for your taste(sing. and plur.). In German for many people we use “tastes” instead of taste?
2. Vorliebe word meaning in this setance – interesst/tatse?

Picture with the dialogue here:

Thank you in advance!

  3. “Dieses Mal stimmt von keinem Menschenhaus”

    “This sign does not come from any human house”

    I suppose it’s some feudal fantasy context? It sounds rather faux medieval in its syntax and wording.

  5. >Vorliebe word meaning in this sentence – interest/taste?

    “preferences” or “proclivities”. Vorliebe carries a lot of “desire” as undertone, particularly in this context of formal phrasing and with “wild” specifying here.

    So “a wild beauty for your wild desires/proclivities” would be apt.
    Might as well add “we know you like to play rough and for them to fight back, she can take it *wink *wink” afterwards.

    “Mal” here is “mark” or “brand”, like in “mark of the beast” or “being branded” or “beauty mark”.
    It implies that it is on the body rather than a banner or flag.
    I think it connects to the latin for “bad/evil” so the undercurrent is kind of “blemish”.

  6. Either that’s a really bad comic or you didn’t make a lot of effort transcribing those. So if you want a translation, at least give us correct sentences.

  7. Are you sure you even transcriped those sentences correctly? There seem to already be mistakes. I’m pretty sure in your first sentence it needs to be “stammt” not “stimmt” (which are both completely different words).
