eine multi(-)tasking Hausfrau Explanation: As far as I can tell, the word "multitasking" has already been assimilated into the German language; otherwise, you are probably going to have to describe it, i.e., "...eine Hausfrau, die meherere Arbeitsvorgnge gleichzeitig verrichtet" (vgl. http://www.google.de/search?hl=de&q=multitasking Hausfrau&bt... ). -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 37 mins (2009-02-27 18:24:25 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- While searching I did see "vielbeschäftigte Hausfrau" a few times, but I think it doesn't quite coincide. |
