Not a lot would be my guess. The 'u' in 'suss' has an umlaut, making it a completely different vowel in german. As to the ess-tset, don't bother - the most recent german Rechtschreibreform got rid of it. /Per best regards, Per Jessen, [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://timian.jessen.ch - an analog report-formatter using XSLT
