Gift
Care is required with the German word Gift, a false friend which corresponds to the English poison rather than gift or present. So the sentence Wegen der Mäuse haben wir Gift ausgelegt means We put poison down for the mice.
The English gift, on the other hand, has the German equivalent Geschenk. So the sentence I got a really nice gift for my birthday can be rendered as Zu meinem Geburtstag habe ich ein besonders schönes Geschenk bekommen.
Umweltbewusstsein
The environment has been a major issue in Germany for many years, and the Green party formed part of the governing coalition between 1998 and 2005. Germany was among the first to introduce ideas that have now become widespread elsewhere, such as wind farms, large-scale recycling schemes and the separation of household waste.
