Very concise.
Not helpful or meaningful, but it has the advantage of compactness.
Are you planning on posting the next letter in the word is a separate post?

Herr Angela Merkel is on a one-day visit to the UK where she/he will address both Houses. As she/he walks in to do her speech will she/he think to her/himself as Chancellor "and all of this could have been mine"?

No no no no no.
You must at the end of the sentence the main verb putten!
And dont forget inversion! 'Uber kanst ve' After a preposition the verb and pronoun reverse order.
Oh, and that's 'kannen ve' Ve is a plural, so its kannen, Kanst wold go with ich, du, etc
tut tut, your Germish needs a bit of work.

Actually I am fluent in German, having lived there for several years.
It was a satirical side swipe at the English impression of what Germans are like.
Several years ago I was in a pub talking to a couple of Germans.
The subject got round to The War.
One of the Germans asked why we English always bring up the war, and, to a man the five or six other Englishmen at the bar, in unison, said "Because We Won!".
Even the Germans laughed at this.

Anyway, your Germish sucks.

German tourist witnesses a road accident. He runs into a shop. Here is the conversation:
German: A man has been knocked down by a car. What number do I dial to get an ambulance?
Shopkeeper: No, no, no.
German: What do you mean, nein, nein, nein?

Reminds me of the (probably faked) video about the German coast guard I saw years ago. There are two men, an old one and a young one, problably an apprentice.
The old man says (in German) to to the young one something like: I need to go to the restroom. Stay alert.
As soon as the old man is out of the door there is a voice from the speaker: Mayday, mayday! We are sinking!
The young man hessitantly grabs the microphone and says veeery sloowly with an incredibly awful German accent: Hello. Sis is se German coast guard. What are you sinking about?
The good thing about pessimism is, that you are always either right or pleasently surprised.

"Yes you did. You invaded Poland!"
Had some brilliant lines, that show: "She can kill a man at 10 paces with one blow of her tongue"

Britain, North Germany, Holland and Flanders should have merged into a single state centuries ago. We have a common language, common religion, common culture and would have been a dominant global force and avoided two world wars.
Shame.

So you mean German language, German Religion and German culture?
