And so long as men die liberty will never perish.

One Word you mentioned showed nicely what you missed here: Plain

Originally it was called an aeroplane. This could be translated with "flat thing in the air". Which is exactly as ridiculous as your other examples in German. The difference is that Germans don't mind complicated long words where English does so they just drop the part they don't like.

Ich brauche kein Immunsystem. Ich bin im Grunde eine einzige große Riesenfresszelle.

Je Dichter die die Wohnungen desto effizienter werden sie betrieben. Das gilt für Geld und für Energie. Der Niedergang des peripheren Landes ist also auch ein gewünschter Transformationsprozess.

Dann soll der Mc in Tübingen halt dichtmachen und eine andere Bürgerbude kommt da rein. Die Neue wird sich am die Bestimmungen halten können.

Oder Mc rechnet nochmal nach und entdeckt, dass es sich trotzdem lohnen könnte weil es fucking McDonalds ist. Die global agierenden multi-milliarden Unternehmen sind einfach extra weinerlich.

So ist das nicht korrekt. Gusseisen ist super pflegeleicht heutzutage. Normales Spülmittel hat keine Chance gegen eine gute Polymerschicht (Patina) also ist spülen kein Problem (bitte nur keine Spülmaschine).

Und metallisches Equipment in der Pfanne ist - in Moderation - sogar zu empfehlen. Dadurch glättet man die Polymerschicht langsam und nachhaltig aus. Auf Dauer wird sie so stark, dass man wirklich alles damit machen kann. Also auch die oft vermiedenen Tomaten.

That is a strange take because economics builds on this principle to function. If you found a producing company today it will have to buy a material and - by the magic you apply to it - sell it for more. Like a refinery buying crude oil and selling gasoline. Or a goldsmith buying gold and selling jewellery. It's how everything works.

On a broader take it reveals a Marxian perspective on a market where every item looses its value to the cost of the labor that goes in it. For the alchemist (if everyone found out his Pb->Au secret) the price will drop until it's worth the labor that went in it because everyone else also can't sell cheaper.

So labor is all that has value. And owning the means of production hasn't.

If your rigor cortis lasts for more than 2 hours please consolidate a doctor.

Not if you are a toddler. Are you a toddler?

Correct but if the effects are severe we could already say that it's bad. If they are harmful the effect of currently normal levels is on the milde side.

The toxicity of micro plastics is very minor. To get to the point where it is a problem you need to be exposed to it for a very long time.

I think our asbestos is halogenated organic chemicals like PFAS. They are toxic in every way and we are addicted to their use in food chemistry. Not to eat or anything but to make the packaging look nice.

Because they are indestructible by any natural way their dose in the water supply is ever rising. The cost of health issues is already in the hundred billions.

Micro plastics might be a problem for our children when the dosage in clean water gets to extreme levels.
