[lyric void]

Reminds me I didn't know the word disgusting was spelled the way it is

A word that is more frequently used gets lower language level badge, life is not fair even among word society

[fierce pawn]

you intuitively knew it

[willow oak]

[ember thistle]

hiii miaa

[dull oar]

its intuitive

[ember thistle]

[grave spoke]

bro sybau alles ist für dich ne häufige wendung 😭

[ember thistle]

intuitively understandable

[dull oar]

okay vielleicht ist es nicht gerade häufig aber es ist ein spruch den man ab und zu sieht

[grave spoke]

mein ganzes leben läuft auf englisch und ich kenn solche wörter nicht 🥀

[fierce pawn]

aber ist polnisch nicht deine Muttersprache?

You are UV

[polar galleon]

mostly cuz u're not a twink

[lyric void]

Yes

[ember thistle]

uh oh.

[dull oar]

easier grammar harder pronunciation

[fierce pawn]

Ons is ultraviolet

[ember thistle]

what a bad timing

[dull oar]

harder hörverstehen

[fierce pawn]

interesting

[lyric void]

What???

The pronunciation is easy to me 😭

[fierce pawn]

i saw some places near me that'd pay for me to learn a language if i work for them

[polar galleon]

harder spelling too

[high heart]

How much

[lyric void]

That's probably cause I learned the basics though

[fierce pawn]

idk they’d cover schooling costs and probably average pay

[high heart]

Not bad not bad

[visual umbra]

Gibt es drogen in Deutschland?

[high heart]

Not bad at all tbh

[fierce pawn]

should i go get paid to learn english

[dull oar]

Spelling has been intuitive so far, with the exception of words with é and è

[lyric void]

You already knowing is funny

[dull oar]

idk what the rules for words having é and è are

[polar galleon]

oiseau vs oiseaux

[high heart]

Idk

[clever hatch]

That's not how it works... Wait

[fierce pawn]

i get critiqued a lot more for my english than my german ☹️

[high heart]

On left one right

Ea ae?

[clever hatch]

I'd see that as a win tbh

[dull oar]

When a word ends in au, the plural form gets an -x

That's regular

[fierce pawn]

told someone english is my mother language and they looked at me like i just lied straight out of my teeth

[clever hatch]

[polar galleon]

Le ver vert va vers le verre vert

[runic tide]

reminds of japanese /tatsu/ which is 立つ "to stand", 建つ "to build, be built", 絶つ・断つ "break off, with", 経つ "pass by", 辰 "the Dragon"

[clever hatch]

Tech you have an accent?

[dull oar]

the green someting goes through the green something?

[lyric void]

WHAT???

Your English is amazing wtf

[fierce pawn]

nope

my accent is rather neutral

[clever hatch]

Then ppl are idiots don't mind them

[fierce pawn]

and im a pro at code switching

[dull oar]

I mean thats a Zungenbrecher its supposed to brechen your Zunge

[polar galleon]

French has something called dictée where people try to write down words they hear in a sentence. French has this problem cuz there are too many homophones that are spelled differently

[clever hatch]

What's code switching?

[lyric void]

My German sucks more than my English (probably cause I'm a native)

[fierce pawn]

changing the way you speak depending on who you are addressing

[lyric void]

Tech

[fierce pawn]

hiii

[high heart]

My dad knows only french ask me how say photographe in English
I said photography
He said it's same (no shi😔)

[clever hatch]

Ohh that's a neat skill

[lyric void]

Should I finish learning French and Spanish after German

[dull oar]

cant disagree but that falls under the harder hörverstehen part that I mentioned not under harder spelling

[fierce pawn]

uhh why not

[lyric void]

I started and got to A2 in French but only A1 in spanish

😔

I'm rusty

[fierce pawn]

😭

[dull oar]

tatsumaki one punch man

[polar galleon]

i'd argue it's the spelling cuz you'd struggle to write down the correct spelling. you'd prob understand what is said but determining which spelling is the issue

[ember thistle]

hmm

[clever hatch]

Kùkù u got lost again?

[ember thistle]

im not lost!!

[clever hatch]

U sure?

[high heart]

I only join this server because I read random Ww2 german tank name (panzerkampfwagen I guess) and say yes this language it's weird asf..like me

[ember thistle]

..maybe i am

[dull oar]

I have heard that when Frenchmen hear a completely new word they are able to write its spelling down correctly

[median jungle]

[clever hatch]

I knew it

Ja?

[ember thistle]

[fierce pawn]

the reticent raconteur

[median jungle]

Goblin druid in a future tech punk campaign. He's a power rangers type character who has a mech suit as wild shape

[polar galleon]

sure. that's not what my point is. dictée isn't about spelling a single word like english. it's about dictation of a sentence which contains homophones, like tongue twisters

[clever hatch]

Doom slayer

[ember thistle]

-# homophobes?

[polar galleon]

[polar galleon]

indeed. i'm only providing evidence

[fierce pawn]

does french have genders also

[median jungle]

I want a technical pun

[high heart]

[polar galleon]

[median jungle]

So far my ideas are Short Circuit or Faulty Part

[high heart]

Not enough

[clever hatch]

Omgg short circuit is perfect 😭

[willow oak]

hi onkel

[dull oar]

idk the patterns yet 😔 I've come across more masculine nouns though

[lyric void]

Yeah it's like la le

[fierce pawn]

is 2 genders the standard or something

[median jungle]

Hi

[ember thistle]

god i love him sm

[high heart]

Sooo I don't have personal choice
should I learn German or Spanish

[fierce pawn]

german

[dull oar]

its the standard for all the major romance languages

except romanian which has 3

[lyric void]

Even Spanish has them

[polar galleon]

u mean in general? i'd say so. there are languages that had 3 genders that evolved into 2 genders over time, like the case of German -> Swedish/Danish/Norwegian/Dutch

[lyric void]

I love Spanish speakers

Please keep talking it tickles my brain

[high heart]

So complicated one word and I should separate it simple but my brain slow process I still stuck with I3

[fierce pawn]

interesting

[polar galleon]

and then there's Latin where there are technically 5 genders for nouns and 3 genders for adjectives

[fierce pawn]

german becomes a lot easier when you stop being scared of the big words

[high heart]

Why 5 genders ( no homo )

[lyric void]

I have the fear of long words though /j

[grave spoke]

nopi

[polar galleon]

in Latin they're called declensions. each noun in the language belongs to one of the 5 declensions. each declension works in a specific way. this is not unlike a grammatical gender

[fierce pawn]

they’re fun to make

[high heart]

I'm sceard from big words even in Arabic my damn native language

[dull oar]

its basically just shy/reserved

[high heart]

[lyric void]

The word timid is so... Weird when used mostly

[polar galleon]

in High Valyrian there are 4 genders

[fierce pawn]

dw you'll notice quickly enough how easy it is to separate them from each other

[lyric void]

I've never seen it used in a normal way

[dull oar]

not weird to me

[grave spoke]

this is actually wild how i for example watch everything in englisch and i have absolutely no problem understanding anything and yet im not familiar with so many words

[fierce pawn]

i get called it

i like

[lyric void]

If someone called me timid id throw hands

[runic tide]

https://youtu.be/8DzE8SFlYUA?si=R8-gaTuFsBUBm0gh

[high heart]

How I should separate word containe 23 letters

[polar galleon]

up in the air like u just don't care

[grave spoke]

at this point i got so used to omitting words i dont understand i don't even really notice them in a longer run

[runic tide]

Kazakh, Estonian and Hungarian don't have genders

[fierce pawn]

i would just do this

[grave spoke]

just take everything from context

[high heart]

I will try

[fickle abyss]

I love long words bc they make so much sense!

[polar galleon]

not every language does. most Asian languages don't have gender

[small fjord]

I want to go home.

[fickle abyss]

https://gfds.de/das-fugenelement/ have u tried reading some rules and stuff about them

[polar galleon]

THE RULES ARE NEVER CONSISTENT

U SAID THIS URSELF

[fickle abyss]

Yes

Does that mean you also never learnt rules for verb declination?

Bc we have many irregular verbs

[polar galleon]

what rules for verb declination?

u mean strong verbs vs weak verbs?

[fickle abyss]

[polar galleon]

what u said was ambiguous

[fickle abyss]

Ich -e
Du -st
...

Or 'rules' like every word ending with -x is a certain gender

Generalizations

[polar galleon]

that's not a rule. that's a conjugation

[fickle abyss]

There are SOME hints, rules, u can learn for fugenelemente too

[polar galleon]

''rule'' sagt keiner in diesem Kontext

[fickle abyss]

Doch

maybe in german y'all say that but no one says that in english

[polar galleon]

syro gimme sock

[gilded lodge]

you can't just go around and ask people to give you sock, that's rude

[polar galleon]

but srsly no one calls verb conjugations ''rules''

we call them verb conjugations

[dull oar]

I would call them verb conjugation rules or patterns

[polar galleon]

patterns, i'd agree with

cuz certain irregular verbs will conjugate similarly, thus becoming a pattern

[polar galleon]

but you'd take donations?

i take donations

[mossy cove]

It depends on the moon so yeah

[clever hatch]

I mean.... If they feel like it then can just tell everyone to skip a day of Ramadan 😭

[mossy cove]

Does Pakistan celebrate eid along with Saudi Arabia?

[clever hatch]

It should be 30 days every month but they are actin goofy

[clever hatch]

Nah it's 1 day late

[fickle abyss]

Mid Eid: guys u know what? I think it was the wrong timing, tell everyone to stop eating, Eid is tomorrow. Good night

[clever hatch]

Hallo kùh

[ember thistle]

uhhuh hi

[clever hatch]

[fluid valve]

What's eid

[polar galleon]

Eid follows Ramadan?

[clever hatch]

Ja

[polar galleon]

aso

[clever hatch]

There are 2 eids

[polar galleon]

i have a young student who did half the Ramadan days cuz it's optional for him and his lesson with me is at the end of the day, right when fasting ends. he was always so tired lmao

[fickle abyss]

On the first one u slaughter a goat and on the second one u eat 5 tons of candy

[fickle abyss]

M... Me?

[mossy cove]

2nd eid is about sacrificing animal

[fickle abyss]

So I mixed them up oops

[mossy cove]

I was energetic till 17th ramadan ✋️😔

[polar galleon]

nee die breite Öffentlichkeit

[clever hatch]

You got it the other way around but you got the spirit

[fluid valve]

English is similar to German.
I am stealing - Ich stehle
I stole - Ich stahl
I have stolen - Ich habe gestohlen

[clever hatch]

I got knocked out sick on the last 10 days 🥀

[dull oar]

you guys are talking about eid on a german server I thought it was about der Eid like what are you taking an oath on

[polar galleon]

my polyglot german teacher told me if a verb is irregular in english, 80% of the time it's also irregular in german

[zinc sequoia]

lol

[polar galleon]

there are indeed verbs that are irregular in one but not the other

[zinc sequoia]

well eid is coming in 3-4 days

[fluid valve]

Except for machen

[fickle abyss]

oh so you accept that BUT NOT THE FUGENELEMENTE

[polar galleon]

BECAUSE FUGENELEMENE ARE NOT REQUIRED. ONE CAN BREAK THE COMPOUND WORD INTO SEPARATE WORDS AND NOT HAVE TO CRY

[fickle abyss]

then they mean something completely else

[zinc sequoia]

a person who never studied english grammar probably would get confused though

[fickle abyss]

Or they're not possibly that accurate

Try to break up Kindertagespflegestätte

[ember thistle]

tochter 😭

[fluid valve]

Tbh irregular verbs are not a big deal

[zinc sequoia]

doch

[fluid valve]

You just hear stuff enough times

[clever hatch]

English grammar is overrated everyone know how to speak it why learn the grammar vro

[dull oar]

the french verb for give is regular after english and german I was in shock I completely expected it to be irregular

[clever hatch]

🤧

[zinc sequoia]

my friend always points out mistakes, because i never studied the grammar

[clever hatch]

It's probably @polar galleon

[zinc sequoia]

lol, he isn't here... in this server

[fluid valve]

Nobody really makes grammar mistakes in English

[polar galleon]

die Stätte, in der Kinder gepflegt werden...

[fickle abyss]

Okay now it sounds like you're treating sick children

[zinc sequoia]

i do make mistakes sometimes, specifically in tenses

[clever hatch]

[polar galleon]

THEY ARE SICK. THEY NEED MEDS

[fluid valve]

Yeah but very rarely

I feel like you'd only make mistakes if you learned it very late in life

Most learn it as children or teens

[polar galleon]

it's a great way to learn, cuz that means u understand the rules. my english teacher taught me this. it's a great skill

[zinc sequoia]

for example, i didn't know that you would use the default form of verb (infinitiv) with didn't

i used to say "i didn't knew" which is wrong

[fluid valve]

Yes it's wrong

We don't pair the past tense with did

[distant gulch]

Hi

[polar galleon]

i know someone who always say ''i have went home'' and another who says ''do you want to pick him or myself'' instead of ''him or me''

drives me bananas

[zinc sequoia]

yes, there are other mistakes too which i still make

that's why i will study grammar in future

[clever hatch]

Tbh the only reason I can understand German grammar is cuz I learned English grammar In school

[fluid valve]

Don't study grammar

You'll just hypercorrect yourself

[zinc sequoia]

yeah, currently stuck with german (B2) , after that probably i will study grammar and would learn vocab upto C1,

[zinc sequoia]

my friend said it's good to?

study grammar

[polar galleon]

i can't speak for others but the ability to spot parts of speech is incredibly important for me

[polar galleon]

cuz if u know the environment in which a word is used, u can predict the rules that will apply to it

[zinc sequoia]

i had to learn everything from the start, i didn't even know what a verb is

[mossy cove]

@clever hatch will u give me eidi?

[clever hatch]

Exactly vro

[polar galleon]

my german teacher always said that German words can change depending on the environment they're in and she was completely right. german grammar doesn't work if u don't know genders and cases (and god forbid, adjective declension)

[clever hatch]

I'll give you eid Mubarak with a personalized card

How bout dat?

[mossy cove]

Eid is about eidi

[polar galleon]

just like aud is about audi

[zinc sequoia]

[fickle abyss]

[zinc sequoia]

there are people in my country who try to learn german without knowing even Englisch, indeed hard

[mossy cove]

U make eid cards? I used to buy eid cards for my friends when I were a kid

[zinc sequoia]

[zinc sequoia]

[polar galleon]

my granddad called me, asked about music, asked about grandchildren, said ''within this year or next u get married, yes?''

''or else u too old''

[zinc sequoia]

[fluid valve]

[fickle abyss]

My mom when I told her about my new, foreign boyfriend

sigh... Aren't there any Germans around you? Some with a good job and money?

Germans in other countries:

But anything foreign to him is "evil"

[fluid valve]

Parents are people too. Sometimes they make mistakes

I Suspect He May Have Used The "K" Word

[polar galleon]

my family has big get-togethers often and i haven't been to them for years. they'll still try to get me to come and i never go. i think if i told them i was gay their brains would explode

What do you guys use to learn languages? I want an alternative to duolingo

[fickle abyss]

faq nicos weg

[smoky epoch]

Nicos

Nicos Weg is a free online program aimed at helping people learn German. It includes video, audio, text, grammar explanations, notes, vocabulary, and exercises. It also includes very useful cultural and bureaucratic information, such as how to open a bank account, while teaching you the relevant grammar and vocabulary.

It’s fairly popular and well-recommended, but keep in mind that you can’t learn a language with only one resource, even if it’s a good one!

You can find the program here: https://learngerman.dw.com/en/nicos-weg/c-36519789

You can also see various other courses for learners by dw.com here: https://learngerman.dw.com/en/overview/

umm eherlich gesagt hab ich in september 2025 mit Deutsch gestartet, aber ich hatte bei der Mathe-Prüfung durchgefallen und deswegen konnte ich nicht 2 Monate lernen ... würde ich sagen "7-8 Monate insgesamt"
hab ich vor kurzem B1 beendet und jetzt lerne ich B2
und du?

[clever hatch]

English just spawned in my head and all my other 2 languages are mother languages and German is the only language I'm actively learning soo... Ig Immersion is the key 🗝️

[craggy harness]

Good to know, I would not have been able to tell on my own

[polar galleon]

i can't read the verb durchfallen without thinking about u-know-what

German Durchfall/10

[fluid valve]

You should also learn the phonology of the language so you can easily spell out words you hear

[fickle abyss]

Same

[craggy harness]

Any good platforms for that?

[fluid valve]

Youtube

[zinc sequoia]

what lol

[craggy harness]

I‘ll give it a try

[fluid valve]

But most German sounds exist in the languages I know

[fickle abyss]

Durchfall = diarrhea

[polar galleon]

Durchfall. look up in dictionary

[fickle abyss]

Durchfallen = fail an exam

[fluid valve]

All except the umlauts and ch and r

[fluid valve]

Oh nein

durchfallen = failing in exam?

Was ist schlimmer, Durchfall oder durchfallen?

[zinc sequoia]

or i am wrong?

[zinc sequoia]

durchfallen... kann ich bestätigen

[fickle abyss]

Ich finde Durchfall schlimmer

[bleak tangle]

[zinc sequoia]

do they?

[slate garden]

german is german

[bleak tangle]

deutsche sprache schwere sprache

[valid wigeon]

it depends entirely on your native language

[polar galleon]

''deutsche Sprache schwere Sprache'' is a real saying in german

[lapis pecan]

ça dépend wie alles eh?

[zinc sequoia]

rate it
?/10
in difficulty

[zinc sequoia]

let's suppose englisch

[fluid valve]

Its all relative

[bleak tangle]

then it’s really not that difficult

[polar galleon]

not according to natives

[fluid valve]

From what point of view are we talking about

[valid wigeon]

4-5/10 maybe? there are much harder languages and much easier languages

[bleak tangle]

Yours

[valid wigeon]

there's a lot of common vocab and you don't have to learn a new writing system

[zinc sequoia]

easier : spanish
harder : japanese, arabic, korean, chinese

[valid wigeon]

the grammar's just weird

[fluid valve]

Tagalog is easy to learn

[zinc sequoia]

the cases and adjective endings sucks
beside it's easy

[polar galleon]

and genders. keep in mind, the genders are mostly memorized

and plurals

[zinc sequoia]

yeah

[fluid valve]

German has the easiest pronunciation

[zinc sequoia]

but it's still not a big problem

[zinc sequoia]

[limber abyss]

japanese is mid diff at best

[polar galleon]

u guys have never said the word Streichholzschächtelchen out loud have u

[dull oar]

OKAY MAN

[zinc sequoia]

every language has them

[bleak tangle]

i just got up like 30 mins ago
doing ok but i gotta eat and then revise then go to school

[lapis pecan]

altaic languages as a group is largely controversial classification

[polar galleon]

you pissed off intermediate speakers, who know the dumb exceptions to every rule

[lapis pecan]

i don't think linguists believe "altaic" languages as a group exist anymore

[polar galleon]

[zinc sequoia]

every language has verbs mit prepositions
if you learn the most common 100-150 you are good to go

[polar galleon]

uh huh

[dull oar]

more like the common 500-1000

[polar galleon]

tell me, what case does ''gratulieren'' use?

''i congratulate you''
