 Das Ei-- the egg
 +en-- eggs. [And das changes to die.]
 I think I spelled it right.
 Das schmeckt gut-- it tastes good.
 Generally when I muss around with sentences/phrases I mess something up. Dativ, accusitiv, conjugations, all of the above....
 I'm surprised [happily surprised, that is] the translator recognized it. (-;
