Okay, explanation required on the line below in order to facilitate maximum enjoyment :
(from TIOBE, Act III)
Gwendolen : "Mr. Worthing, what explanation can you offer to me for pretending to have a brother? Was it in order that you might have an opportunity of coming up to town to see me as often as possible?"
Jack : "Can you doubt it, Miss Fairfax?"
Gwendolen : "I have the gravest doubts upon the subject. But I intend to crush them. This is not the moment for German scepticism..."
Any takers?
