‘schwarz auf weiß’

Some of the actors and musicians this awards season have been really surprised to find out they won, especially Eddie Redmayne!

A phrase they might want to use is “Ich möchte das schwarz auf weiß!” – “I would like that in writing!” It’s a very simple and visual way of expressing the phrase, don’t you think?

The picture comes from NBC News.
