How do I say, "run throughout their relationship"?
Very many TIA

need a bit more of the sentence then that. German works quite differently to English. 4 words are not enough to give context.

Ihre Beziehung ist auf Lügen gebaut?

Ihre Beziehung besteht nur aus Lügen?

Not that easy!

Thank you most helpful, who knew it could be so difficult when for English it's one word... or is it!

It would be Geheimnisse rather than Lügen, I think.

expatmigrant · 20/12/2017 16:42

Geheimnisse not Lûgen.
I would also maybe go with "Geheimnisse jagen durch die Beziehung.
Depends really how dramatic the context is.

Acopyofacopy · 20/12/2017 17:03

Geheimnisse, of course! Time to go back to Germany for a refresher course for me!

“jagen durch ihre Beziehung” is very poetic - it all depends on the context!

LagartijaNick · 20/12/2017 17:10

Lay off the jagen.
