SSC: Erwähnt nicht den Krieg!

[muckefuck]

I had my first German tutoring session in over a month today, at the Blind Faith Café. In the middle of reviewing adjective endings, I had one of my embarrassing and all-too-typical brainfarts and couldn't remember whether it was "das Reich" or "der Reich". So I did what I usually do and started rummaging in my head for fixed phrases which would settle the matter without me having to crack open the dictionary again. Suddenly I hit one and yelled out:

"Heim ins Reich!"

I've mentioned before that the guy I'm tutoring is a rabbi, right?

bingo, thank you. Alas for my German - denken and glauben lost, no less.
