Junge Burgersohne, die bisher

The Umlaute are missing, also.

Should read: "Junge Bürgersöhne" (i.e., young, high-status males).

Regards,

The Umlaute was one of the very first things I was taught in 57-60 as a military dependent in Germany. The city Nurnburg had an umlaute over the u. I had a German teacher who was German and spoke fluent English. I liked the way he taught language as he would give us twenty words a day to learn. We learned many words and he also taught the proper verbs and prepositions. I had to take another language in the Army and the teacher was not as good.
