"Monitor, Tastatur, sogar eine Maus."

Translation: Monitor, keyboard, even a mouse.

[srtokes]

The only thing missing is the actual computer! :D

[fridelain]

And the wires.

[Jop-V]

Maybe it's an all-in-one desktop

[amyhansen]

where is the "and" in this statement?

[p-hill]

when you use "sogar" you don't need the 'and'

[XoooOverdose]

Yeah, but that's what DL put...

[ollie88r]

Ya, DL put it in the English translation...not in German

[amyhansen]

But in English, the "and" is not necessary - so, why include it?

[Catweasel]

"and" can be used, and commonly is, in
this type of sentence. It neither adds nor detracts from the value of the sentence. In other words, it's a perfectly superfluous English word.

[wxf163c]

Why is there no article before Monitor and Tastatur?
Why is it not "Ein Monitor"?

[LateBlt]

It's just a type of phrasing. In English, you might say "knife, fork, and spoon"; it's not required to say "a knife, a fork, and a spoon".

[brandizzi]

Is "Tastatur" a composite word?

[mizinamo]

It's not made of two German components, but you can see Taste (key) in it and I suppose the ending means something like "collection of ...".

It's not a productive suffix, though (you can't add it to any noun you want), but you can see it in words such as Klaviatur, Hängeregistratur and perhaps it's the same as in Partitur.

[Lena2492]

This sounds so weird if you're a native german speaker :D

[AIFan3]

Sound like names for dinosaurs

[talideon]

Sounds like part of an ad.

[Dimitri225458]

"Monitor" is pronounced badly!

[Sepochi]

I agree

[Seungho20]

So Maus can actually mean both animal mouse and the one connected to the computer

[mizinamo]

So Maus can actually mean both animal mouse and the one connected to the computer

That's right.

[Pat769088]

Another example of the audio not being distinct enough to translate.

[Uberling]

Weird. I typed the answer exactly right and yet was marked wrong. Triple checked!

[Doctor-John]

Did anyone hear this as "Monitor, Tastatur, Lugar, eine Maus?"

I knew "Lugar" couldn't be right. Even now knowing it's supposed to be "sogar," the normal speed sounds like "Lugar."

[Sepochi]

I'm a native speaker and the "sogar" sounds good to me. The way he pronounces "Monitor" is weird though. It sounds like "Moniter".

[IsabellaSc548421]

Mine only said monitor tastatur.

[Rene983059]

Xc , in nm

[Wildy135]

This feels like something out of an ad from 30 years ago.
