I've used German IE for some time in 1997. It was fun, I still remember some words like Datei, Hilfe, Zuruck, Weiter and of course Abbrechen  :)

While we are talking about Umlaute, we should not forget the ß.
I still have to go on warning that some weird people are about to "kill" this rare, but lovable letter.
Here some text (in German) about the ß (Eszett) and its slow disappearing:

Aw yeah, good old Abbrechen. Along with Beenden, the integral word while working with IE.

Nån som testat att slå upp "Bender" i ett lexikon? Enligt min utgåva är det slang för "suporgie"   :laff:

Just kidding, I assume you mean Windows something, the crappiest being Windows Me.

I set all my OSs up to use English because I really hate the Danish translations.

No they're not that bad all the time, but some are. They just seem unnatural.

Totally unrelated but still on topic:
Once at a lecture our lecturer came back from the break between the two halves of the lecture. He started speaking English and no one knew why. After five minutes or so, he suddenly stopped and said: "Hey, I'm speaking English!" (he said that in Danish). He then proceeded in Danish.
Weird.

Slog upp det nyss i Svenska Akademins Ordboks nätupplaga och fick inga träffar.

Jag tror nog ingen använde termen "bender" under hela 2003 här i Sverige dock  :p

You should probably ignore it, I just reread what I wrote and I realized it didn't make much sense. Sorry, I wasn't really paying attention to what I was writing, very tired.

It wasn't offensive, it actually woke me up to realize to put more care into my words when I write them.

Jag hittade iallafall några liknande engelska referenser på nätet ( http://english2american.com/dictionary/b.html ):

bender n. 1. A big drinking session. 2. Be careful, because this word is also a rather derogatory term for a homosexual.

De visste nog vad de gjorde när de döpte Bender  :laff:

Wenn ich das richtig lese - und ich will dabei klarstellen, daß ich kein Dänisch kann, - wurde Bender's Name im Skandinavischen TV als "Bøje" wiedergegeben?
Selbst Deutschland's "Futurama-Übersetzungs-Schänder" Nr. 1 - Ivar Combrinck - hat sich da zurückgehalten ... Naja, dafür hat er "the Crushinator" zur "Quetschwalze" gemacht.  :nono:

Funny fact: I never had that problem with my stone-age-old Windows version ... while most of this new Win 2000 / NT / Me etc. "things" seem to work like "error-message-magnets".

Also ...
in funny news: Omelettes speak German (clicky-click).

No, I'm not insane   :D

Any idea why omelettes speak German and not Danish?

Jeg syntes rettere omeletten skulle tale fransk, det er der den kommer fra (tror jeg da). Æggekage (omelet).

It should speak french, if anything at all!
