One of the hardest most unexpected things about coming back to the US: Realizing how much Americans overuse the word "like." Listening to some girls talk, and they're averaging over 4 uses of the word "like" per sentence. How did we end up doing this to the English language?
A lot of German speakers seem to use for word "exactly" too much when speaking English, for reasons which are easy to work out.

Oh, it's because "genau" is used in many more scenarios in German than "exactly" is in English.
