Equal Goes It Loose

The World Of Teaching & Learning English

About Me & The Page

See my TT here!

But stolen directly from that, the name is stolen from one of the more famous mix ups from German into English, from an incident in 1965 when Germany’s President Heinrich Ltibke turned to Queen Elizabeth the II and stated a literal translation of “Gleich geht es los.” He meant “it will soon begin”, but what he said was “Equal goes it loose.” WTF?
