"Du trinkst also jeden Morgen ein Glas Knoblauchsaft…"

Translation: So you drink a glass of garlic juice every morning…

[Raisinnoir]

That's one sure way to get a seat on the U-Bahn..

[Wayne____]

It also cures onion breath instantly.

[PaulMcCann6]

Lecker, lecker, lecker...

[Karolius2]

Germans are so disgusting. I'm Pole and here we prefer real dainty- onion juice.

[SheldonCol3]

Popular amongst German vampire slayers.

[angus390025]

Knoblauchsaft? Is that a thing?

I know duolingo has some silly sentences, and this may be one. But drinking garlicjuice may be popular in Germany. Does anyone know?

[Druckles]

It is not.

[angus390025]

Thanks. One can never be quite sure. In Brazil, the butterfly wants me to take him to the theater. ("A borboleta quer que eu a leve ao teatro.") That one was pretty obviously silly. But there was one German sentence wherein a horse was eating the Holy Potato. I learned later that the Holy Potato exists.

[requin230]

Not anymore if the horse ate it.

[rokas768126]

What is the role of "also" in this sentence? Why is it needed?

[gary444]

Haha...Is this an actual 'Sprichwort' or just a Duolingo creation?

[az_p]

Duo creation. I suppose the ellipsis ("...") at the end is intended to show that the speaker is sceptical of this strange-sounding claim.

[JCFal]

i thought Saft can be only made out of fruits. clearly not the case in German speaking countries?

[cjr37]

Carrot juice in the UK, but I have not tasted it.

[Shahin840485]

Curious: Garlic is a strong stimulant. Adding it to recipes, itself felt wrong, many a times. However drinking it's juice, is it healthy?

[Wayne____]

This program is not meant to give health or medical advice. It's supposed to teach you how to say things in other languages, and in this case, how to translate a given sentence. If it tells me to translate a sentence that means "is there a restaurant near here?" or say it out loud, it doesn't mean that I'm hungry and need to find a restaurant.

In this case, the ellipsis at the end makes the tone skeptical.

[13Armadillos]

Ewwwww....

[Robin759694]

Why not Therefore you drink....? Also often means therefore?
