Forget it my lady


Explanation:
This might be a German dialect or maybe even Dutch, but this is probably the meaning.

agree  writeaway: I don't think it's Dutch (Frau=vrouw, vergeten is forget). In any case, Happy New Year Kim!

Vegeta is my wife


Explanation:
perhaps. Found 1 Dragon Ball site in German. The woman's name is Vegeta.
Just another suggestion.

Hätte man diesem Beobachter
erzählt, dass diese beiden Persönlichkeiten verheiratet sind, und Kind namens Trunks haben,
so hätte er einem wohl einen Vogel gezeigt. Die Arme vor der muskulösen Brust verschränkt folgte Vegeta seiner Frau.

agree  LegalTrans D: Exactly, though I don't know where his German (?) comes from. The sentence should probably read "Wie geht es, meine Frau?"
