Especially if you hit a time where two members are just replying back and forth, one right after the other. :p

Ja, ich verstehen.
Make it "Ja, ich verstehe."  ;)  (German vor "Yes, I understand.") With the n ending it would be a plural form.

Diesmal ist es vollkommen richtig mein Freund!
(This time it is perfectly right my friend!)

Weirdly people are rarely addressed as "mein Freund" (my friend) in Germany. Sort of sad  :(

Usually with "Du" or by name. The "Sie" in German is for more official occasions. There is not such a differentiation in English ever since the though (wich was simmilar to the German "Du") passed away, is there?
