Aufrichtigkeit

he he, interesting phrase he has there!

Hi Laurie,

The main reason I use Germanic titles at the moment relates to the extended ability to play with words/meaning, hence giving greater depth to a piece for those with the patience to translate a title. As you may be aware, whilst English is a Germanic language, it does not always translate accurately, so when I place an English phrase in a translator, I will get my German equivalent. If I then translate that back into English, it often gives a phrase which is similar but not quite the same to the original. I use this difference to give a hint to the thoughts underpinning the creation of the poems.

On top of that, I just love the look of German!

Hope that makes some modicum of sense.

Mos.
