Ich habe zwei Brüder

Just in case you're worried, I actually have two sisters, but when learning German I found it easier to say zwei Brüder (which is a lie) than zwei Schwestern (which is true). So in a desperate attempt to learn German, I ended up learning to lie in a foreign language.

The reason I tell you this is that I have been invited to speak at a Modern Foreign Languages conference. Bizarre. If my old French teacher is still alive, he'll be turning in his grave!

Gib vollpower! (which, I believe, is the German equivalent of "Give 'em hell!")

Ultreya! (Which I tend to render as "G'aun yersel. son!" (I belive it's Spanish. I don't speak Spanish)
