Rank speculation-- similar type of improv is quantized to the level of a full sentence. Even ranker-- doesn't German have the same kinds of filibuster phrases

Rank speculation-- similar type of improv is quantized to the level of a full sentence.
Even ranker-- doesn't German have the same kinds of filibuster phrases as English? Stuff like this:
"Look,"
"The point is this--"
"I think what the average American wants is..."
"If I've said it once I've said it a thousands times--"
There's a character Fred Armisen did on SNL news that eats the entire segment with these phrases. I'm sure the same can be done in German.
- eru 2y agoYes, German is perfectly capable of these shenanigans. And some more, especially if you are trying to imitate German philosophers.
