That's how it is!

A hilariously funny psychogram of life and antics in the Ruhr area - now for the first time in book form! It is, as it is. And that's how it is! How do people greet each other in the Ruhr area, how do they say goodbye, and most importantly: What happens in between?! Kai Magnus Sting, an expert and friend of the region, explains through uproarious stories and in the so-called Ruhr High German how people in the Ruhr area think and behave. The journey takes you from Aunt Frieda and Grandma to grammatical quirks in the seventh person, all the way to the true Ruhr classic: How do you talk to a currywurst?! This book is a heartfelt tribute to the language and the people of this region: "Listen up, you should know: that's how it is!".
