Often, verbs meaning "to hold" becomes verbs meaning "to have" becomes dative case, so it's a good verb for irregularity! t., back from holiday. Why the ¤%& is there always unsually hot weather where I go on summer vacation? Last year there was *40* degrees C in Bavaria and this year it was a week with 30 degrees in Belgium. Does the clouds hate me and run away, or what?
