I’ve mentioned before that many German speakers know that Handy does not mean mobile phone in English but are there any other Denglish words and phrases that you are using by mistake?
Here is an example I have heard a lot in 2020 since the start of the pandemic and lockdown:
I’m doing Home Office. This is perhaps understandable to speakers of English but it is not what native speakers would say.
(In British English the Home Office is a ministerial department responsible for immigration, security, and law and order.)
If you want to say you are not working in the office just say I’m working from home.
Have fun learning English!
