Comments on: No Swelling to the Neck Arteries http://hertha.theoffside.com/team-news/no-swelling-to-the-neck-arteries.html News from Hertha Berlin German football team Sat, 21 Nov 2009 17:16:32 -0600 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.8.4 hourly 1 By: Abby http://hertha.theoffside.com/team-news/no-swelling-to-the-neck-arteries.html#comment-220 Abby Tue, 15 Jan 2008 05:12:35 +0000 http://hertha.theoffside.com/team-news/no-swelling-to-the-neck-arteries.html#comment-220 Possibly. The first time I heard about Arguez was from a blog, which was a bit rumor-esque, and then from quotes from his management agency, who looking back were a bit coy. At the time they weren't saying that he was doing anything but going over for training, but ended it by saying "but if Hertha like him..." So it's possibly a combination of withholding information and a missed translation. Or either one without the other. Possibly.

Probe stands for trial/tryout and this important extra bit may have been lost in translation. Maybe the American sources got the word Probetraining wrong and thought it was just a training camp?

I do love learning a good German phrase. Especially one to discuss people getting full of rage. Hmmm. So it's looking like more of a trial than American sources wanted to say...I like that. Aha!

Hmmm. So it’s looking like more of a trial than American sources wanted to say…I like that.

I've read some very positive (as in jubilant) comments about his performance in a recent friendly. And when journalists asked Lulu about Arguez and the possibility of him joining the Hertha reserve, his blunt response was "we have no plans for him in the amateur side.". So maybe he'll give his Bundesliga debut soon. http://translate.google.com/translate?u=http%3A//www.berlinonline.de/berliner-kurier/print/sport/203325.html&langpair=de%7Cen&hl=en&ie=UTF8 Oh, and Arguez must have made quite an impression on both Lulu and the Hertha fans.

E.g. that's what happens prior to one of Uli Hoeness trademark rants. In short: it's an image used to describe aggression/tension that is building up in someone. But since there's no swelling all is fine and dandy I guess.:-) “keineswegs zu anschwellenden Halsschlagadern führte”
