Can't help, but it sound perfectly reasonable to me......  What's with
German textbooks and Psychologie?  I finally took a summer course, German
for grad students, and the book contained a regular soap-opera involving Bob
und Maria; at one point Maria sagte: Bob, du hast ein Ödipus-complex.
That's really all I remember of the course, aside from the Aussie who
persisted in using his native vowels in place of German ones.
