THIS IS EXACTLY WHAT I NEEDED. THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR BUTTING IN!! :D
Yeah, comments like that leave me so confused, and a bit angry, passing off someone's opinion as the truth. I mean, I know exactly 20 words in German, and I can probably order a pint if pressed, and there's just no way that I can verify this myself. But seeing something like this -- it makes me terribly uncomfortable, if I'm honest, because I'm a bit OCD about research, and someone yelling UR DOING IT WRONG makes me feel physically ill.
So seriously, again, thank you. I am going to go ahead and use those terms, now that I know they're not strictly speaking really wrong.
