Buffalo buffalo Buffalo buffalo buffalo buffalo Buffalo buffalo


Buffalo buffalo Buffalo buffalo buffalo buffalo Buffalo buffalo.

Do you understand this perfectly grammatical English sentence?

Well, I didn't either at first.

But if you read the wikipedia article and try really hard you will see the light...


And here's a link to the spoken word version (read by a native speaker, NOT a computer!)

If a non-American can read the Declaration of Independence, then I see no reason why an Austrian should not read any article he or she wants to read. In English I mean.

Here is how you are supposed to record the article you have chosen:

Why not start with the one about Arnie for example? If you are from Styria, you may even sound just like him!! On second thought...that one is a bit long and has a lot of big words, like California...


So why not try a shorter article like the Grazer Schloßberg
