In this lesson: 'What suits / what doesn't suit?' Here is the first common phrase or idiom in German, with a thousand more to follow...
Mrs. Margherita Mutter enters the breakfast room, sits at the table, and sighs. The painter Max Ludwig, sitting at the table with Ermanno and Oliver, asks them quietly: 'What doesn't suit Mrs. Mutter?' Was passt Frau Mutter nicht?
Ermanno and Oliver observe the scene and notice the details: Mrs. Mutter wrinkles her nose at the dishes, ignores others, and complains about the coffee being too hot. In the end, they gather ten elements that could be the cause of Margherita Mutter's bad mood.
The waiter gracefully approaches the lady, asking her to wear her mask even while having breakfast. After an initial moment of reluctance ('How can I eat, how can I drink?'), she puts on the mask: her attitude changes, she becomes kind, and praises everything.
What doesn't Ermanno like? Find in the word cloud the three elements that make up Ermanno's nightmares. Then, answer the question 'Was mag Ermanno nicht?' in three sentences.
