Note from asker:
| you don't turn up here with a brat/urchin/gamin. Expressed a bit more strongly. The language is crude. |
| brat is even better. |
| What a hideous situation! There's a temptation to overtranslate here, though. But easy to allow our upset to get in the way. |
| I honestly don't think this over-translating. German texts are often less emotional then English ones. This especially applies to U.S. English. Modifiers are a must. |
