Don't ask Raz to teach you German, he is a rotten teacher. He taught me 3 words and then conveniently forgot to do any more!
Do what I do, read everything and then when you see your name there then demand to be told what they have said, but make sure you ask a few people to make sure that they don't lie to you.
Or just stick it in a translator and you will get the general gist of what has been said.
