Sehr geehrter Herr College!
Für Ihre freundlichen Gratulation sprech ich Ihnen meinen besten Dank aus. Ich werde nicht vergessen, Ihre Grüsse in Stockholm zu bestellen. Es wird Sie vielleicht interessieren, dass wir nun bei anorganischen Verbruchungen sehr schoene spontane Spaltungen in die optischen Isomeren aufgefunden haben.
Mit vorzüglicher Hochachtung,
Ihr A. Werner

Dear Colleague,
Thank you very much for your kind words of congratulations. I will not forget to say hello to everyone in Stockholm. With regards to inorganic deterioration, you may be interested to hear that we have recently discovered interesting, spontaneous scissions in the optical isomers.
Yours sincerely,
A. Werner
