Contains a typical spelling mistake you find suprisingly often in English text when using German words.

Swapping 'ie' to 'ei'. In this case 'Weiner' (wrong, someone who is crying) instead of 'Wiener' (correct, a type of sausage). One I've seen the other day is 'Kreigsmarine' instead of 'Kriegsmarine'.

Anyone knows why this happens?
