Push or Pull?
OK, so I have been living in Germany for nearly 4 months now, and before that I have had several visits here, so really, I have spent at leat 6 months in this country, and most of that time I have had a pretty good grasp of the basics of the language.
So why is it, after all this time, I find myself pausing at doors (even doors I have gone through many times already) and asking myself, "Does 'ziehen' mean push, or pull?".

if its any comfort... i think i remember having the same problem with push or pull (instead of ziehen und druecken) when i first lived in the states. though of course push or pull are a lot more alike looking.... dont worry, i am sure even you will figure it out eventually. :-)
Hey anonymous commentor!
Did I say I had a problem with drücken? No!
Drücken has never been a problem. I only get messed up by ziehen.
