Can you use it for a train connection ? Does this work:
Da mein Zug spät war, habe ich meinen Anschluss verpasst
?
Meh… I think most people would say “Verspätung hatte” or “spät dran war”. “spät war” strikes me as Denglish, but I’m not sure if I would notice it if it comes from a native speaker.
ok , but Anschluss here is at least correct in the context.
Btw i still don’t receive comment notifications
Meant to add a question mark on here- I assume at least Anschluss is correctly used?
Oh, sorry, my bad, I didn’t realize where the question was posted. Yes, Anschluss is correct.
I don’t think I can fix those notifications anytime soon. It’s buried deep in the comment system and the dictionary pages are all custom, I think that’s what breaks it.
You can click the little icon next to the comment counter here in the thread and it’ll list ALL your comments. At least you can check on them quickly.
