So the people have changed the earth like polluted?

[honest flicker]

Mankind is locked in an eternal battle with nature, whereas the elves lived in harmony with it.

[topaz bone]

WHAT oh

[honest flicker]

Chance auch

french pronunciation

[topaz bone]

true! that one I knew but not the other

guessing it means to arange?

[gilded ore]

German pronunciation is consistent - until it isn't!

[topaz bone]

lol I think it's that

pariah yeh

i'd think

[ripe stag]

I find Cousin/Cousine so hard because of the French pronunciation

[pallid dome]

Parias, the Son of Paris, France

[honest flicker]

it usually means that. Here I think it is related to making an agreement with someone.

https://www.dwds.de/wb/arrangieren

definition 2

[topaz bone]

That was me last week trying to say revanche in a german way but it was french pronunciation!

felix: "oh that's awful" Rin: 'c'mon man this is light work

[pallid dome]

Lolo: Definition 2, Section 18, Line 34, Sub-line 22, Second Underlined Word

[honest flicker]

too real

[ripe stag]

Blame the French!

[pallid dome]

felix rastet aus

[topaz bone]

[pallid dome]

er muss ins bett

[honest flicker]

verzog das Gesicht means pull a face

like grimace

[coarse yacht]

🤣 I have to be less mean to Felix...

[pallid dome]

grimace milshake?

[honest flicker]

aufriss = ripped open

[coarse yacht]

😂 lmao...

[ripe stag]

Kruste - scab

[pallid dome]

with your arrogance and contempt

[honest flicker]

condemn

you condemn yourselves to your downfall

[topaz bone]

downfall

FELIX THE MOVIEEE

[pallid dome]

felixs Untergang; the movie

[coarse yacht]

Geralt...

[pallid dome]

Geralt gegen Felix: der Untergang

[honest flicker]

we skipped a sentence

[pallid dome]

skipped it on purpose!

[coarse yacht]

Did he skip or try to trick us.

[honest flicker]

it's a noun

[topaz bone]

to come to an arrangement/ agreement?

[indigo patio]

ein nominalisiertes Verb oder?

[pallid dome]

Dafür, dass Felix Alpträume kriegt

[honest flicker]

guter Punkt

[topaz bone]

Their only chance is to come to an agreement to live together

[honest flicker]

living together, coming to an understanding (with humans), that's your only chance

[indigo patio]

how do these Lesons work?

[pallid dome]

90% german 5% french 5% elvish

[honest flicker]

well yes actually

but no

bow forward

he bent forward a

[pallid dome]

er beugte vor sich hin or something

[coarse yacht]

Someone reads in German and then gets corrected their pronunciation, then translates the text into English with some help.

[honest flicker]

yes!

[indigo patio]

ok may i help?

[coarse yacht]

With what?

[pallid dome]

📷 😕

[indigo patio]

correcting and giving some context

[coarse yacht]

You can help translating sure.

[wary atlas]

Feel free to write comments in the chat.

[honest flicker]

And accept you as our lords/position over us

[indigo patio]

ok ok

[honest flicker]

anerkennen is recognise as in accept

surpremacy

[honest flicker]

yeah

[gilded ore]

sovereignty

[hot sedge]

And pay the Rintax

[honest flicker]

supremacy is good

[pallid dome]

[honest flicker]

'above and beyond' sort of

[hot sedge]

Spoken like a true American

[indigo patio]

yes

[indigo patio]

throughout sortof

but not really

together even if there are walls

[pallid dome]

„Über ... hinweg“ klärt die Mehrdeutigkeit und verstärkt die Bedeutung, dass es eine Kluft gibt, die nicht nur überwunden, sondern metaphorisch umgangen wird, ohne eine fortschreitende Bewegung zu unterbrechen. Stellen Sie sich ein Flugzeug vor, das über einen Fluss fliegt, im Vergleich zu einer Fähre.

[coarse yacht]

[pallid dome]

"„Trotzdem strebt Frederiksen eine breite Koalition über die traditionelle Links-Rechts-Spaltung hinweg an.“ "

example sentence for context lol

[olive raft]

Living together with you beyond the walls?

[indigo patio]

might be

[honest flicker]

I stand by 'above and beyond'

how not? It is 'above and beyond the walls', like as if they weren't there

[pallid dome]

Es ist eine Umschreibung ähnlich wie „in X hinein“, „um X herum“, „über X hinaus“.

Englisch hat nicht viele davon, aber ein Beispiel ist „von jetzt an“. Ihre Frage ist also gleichbedeutend mit der Frage „Warum reicht ‚von jetzt‘ nicht aus?“, und die Antwort ist dieselbe wie dort.

[coarse yacht]

[honest flicker]

but the english probably says despite

[solemn wagon]

I'm doing FSI german programmed course wish me luck 🤞

[coarse yacht]

Good luck.

[honest flicker]

gallows

[gilded ore]

gallows

[topaz bone]

This is my early session reminder to take notes for summaries

ooh gallows

[honest flicker]

to sit by and watch what the children born of such a union have to face. i.e. the judgement they would face

[gilded ore]

What is Schritt und Tritt?

[honest flicker]

the implication is that they 'live together' ie have kids

[coarse yacht]

Like what ever they do, all the time...

[topaz bone]

I read it as step and kick or like pace and kick but i don't think I've got that right

like is there something colloquial?

[gilded ore]

Thank you

[honest flicker]

etwas widerfährt jemandem = something happens to someone, usually bad

not quite

why are you avoiding my gaze

[pallid dome]

an jeder Ecke

maybe

[topaz bone]

I think I'd translate it as 'what will dog their steps' maybe?

like something negative that will follow them

[honest flicker]

How are you able to tolerate living with your neighbour who is different from you? (I think?)

[honest flicker]

oh that's nice

[pallid dome]

ye

[honest flicker]

able to tolerate

[pallid dome]

be able to

[honest flicker]

the important part is able to

[pallid dome]

the implication is that it succeeds because of a reason

isnt happenstance

[honest flicker]

treat your neighbour how you want to be treated: differently.

[pallid dome]

⭐

[topaz bone]

[tawdry talon]

Hallo

[silent mason]

@honest flicker holy shit that was so good. Reaching this level of proficiency in another language is crazy 🙀

[topaz bone]

Ich habe Angst 💀

[low cosmos]

i mean, the whole paragraph is a big question

so many strange words

[honest flicker]

you say this as someone who speaks perfect english

[coarse yacht]

And she also isnt English native, right @honest flicker ?

[pallid dome]

would fool me if she isnt american

ngl

[topaz bone]

true, you'll want to read the whole sentence

and not go word to word

[gilded ore]

vor was hast du Anst?

[pallid dome]

sounds very east coast USA

[honest flicker]

Hochmut und Stolz: wichtige Aspekte des Vorlesens 😎

[low cosmos]

*wovor

[topaz bone]

der naechste Absatz

[hot sedge]

Even when I didn't know what Läuse meant, the connection with Pelz made it clear

[gilded ore]

thanks!

[honest flicker]

I am, and indeed from the eastern side of the country 😄

not the coast though

[pallid dome]

not alltoo common

[olive raft]

One thing lolo does really well is context translation, rather than getting stuck on certain words

[gilded ore]

das ergibt Sinn

[coarse yacht]

What... who I am confusing you with.

[low cosmos]

*rather than being Felix

OOH DID BASE CHUCKLE?

DID I MAKE BASE CHUCKLE?

[coarse yacht]

LMAO... XD

[hot sedge]

LOL

[topaz bone]

lolol a first for everything

[coarse yacht]

I did... did Base too?

[pallid dome]

brb 1 min

[silent mason]

Stop, you'll make him blush

[hot sedge]

Context translation is a good way of putting it

[gilded ore]

I'm actually finding this harder as we go on, which makes no sense

[topaz bone]

oh boy

[gilded ore]

go choco!

[hot sedge]

LET'S GET THIS CHOCOOOO

[low cosmos]

GOGO CHOCO GOGO

[honest flicker]

don't forget the long paragraphs about birds and plants though. Some of that was hard

[hot sedge]

To be honest it was on it's way to almost becoming a zoologie paragraph which is a specialization in itself

[pallid dome]

in die eier

[low cosmos]

[broken steeple]

Ahahahah

[hot sedge]

Whenever choco speaks I get a South German flair idk why

[low cosmos]

/we:n/

[honest flicker]

[honest flicker]

regret

[pallid dome]

so nächstes Mal

[honest flicker]

trying to awaken guilt feelings and regret

[hot sedge]

I just love the freedom German gives to make up words like this

Regret

[coarse yacht]

Nice.

[indigo patio]

regret

[hot sedge]

BEAT ME TO IT

[low cosmos]

lolo always knows (except when she doesn't)

[hot sedge]

Rue

[honest flicker]

more of a phrase

like 'I feel sorry for you' or 'you're crap'

[low cosmos]

das bedeutet ''Straße'' auf Französisch

ich denke

[hot sedge]

Yep

Ich glaub ja

[honest flicker]

unpleasant

[hot sedge]

Unpleasant

i can't turn my head that much damn, Geralt has a talented neck

Gerald has an owl's neck

[honest flicker]

after eating that knuckle sandwich I gave her, she should feel much better

[solemn wagon]

how many times do we do lessons

[coarse yacht]

lmao... why are you so good lolo.

[hot sedge]

I never thought I'd ever hear the words talented and neck in the same sentence

[coarse yacht]

This kind of lesson takes plaxe every Tuesday 10 am German time. for now.

[honest flicker]

this part of the text is just funny 😂

yeah perfect

[low cosmos]

lolo is a native speaker disguising as a C2.9

[hot sedge]

Appreciation for the language and it's nuances itself really helps

But being able to imagine and translate to illustratively

Bildhaft

[coarse yacht]

She is native in both languages... I knew it.

[low cosmos]

Apollo can do the same. His translations are so smooth

and so is his voice

speaking of smooth

[honest flicker]

trade

[coarse yacht]

Tbf he is almost native in both.

[honest flicker]

ah yes he was here shortly last time again, right?

[low cosmos]

''almost native in English''

[wary atlas]

sich zu etw hergeben

[broken steeple]

And still has the B role, doesn't he?

[honest flicker]

sellers, right?

[coarse yacht]

Yes.

[honest flicker]

Kaufleute = storekeeper

[hot sedge]

Kaufmann > Kaufleute

[honest flicker]

Kauffrau > Kaufmann

[hot sedge]

That was supposed to mean an arrow

[low cosmos]

Kaufkatze > Kauffrau

🐱

[topaz bone]

That wasn't so bad!

[hot sedge]

Why does the hotel I'm staying in constantly smell of oranges

[topaz bone]

Glad you like the name Rin ahahaha

[broken steeple]

Sehr gut gemacht!

[gilded ore]

Nicely done choco

[topaz bone]

Danke Alle!

[hot sedge]

Good job choco

[honest flicker]

sehr gut! both reading and translation were great!

[hot sedge]

You're on your way towards improving

[low cosmos]

thanks for being kind to Felix

he's trying

Rin read and Base translate

[hot sedge]

[honest flicker]

yeah fairy please!

[gilded ore]

No?

I cant' translate this!

[low cosmos]

bold of you to assume you have a choice (because Felix didn't get a choice 😭 )

[honest flicker]

You can! We will help. Your reading is so good

and your translations are always good

even though you always say you can't

[gilded ore]

eek!

[topaz bone]

You've got this fairy!!!

I miss your dulcet British tones

[hot sedge]

Time to bring in the bri ish

[low cosmos]

she will colonize these two paragraphs!

wait

[hot sedge]

Ohno

Finally learning the word Lösegeld paid off

I finally encountered it

Now I'll finally stop using finally

[broken steeple]

(finally)

[honest flicker]

when did you have occassion to learn this word? 😂

[topaz bone]

oh I actually loove that word

ransom = solution money

[hot sedge]

Heard it first in an old German opera

[low cosmos]

seedgoods

[honest flicker]

Löse as in setting free/loosen (remember when we had die Fesseln lösen?)

[hot sedge]

My ears are being blessed by bri ish

[low cosmos]

fairy sounds like she's gonna bake us a wonderful shepherd's pie and now i'm hungry at 3am

[topaz bone]

that makes more sense!

[honest flicker]

pathetic, I guess

but there's definitely a better word

[coarse yacht]

[hot sedge]

The contrast between Erbarmung and erbärmlich is extraordinary

[low cosmos]

oh ja my nemesis from last week: heulte

[hot sedge]

Considering how similar they appear

[honest flicker]

he ülte

[low cosmos]

https://tenor.com/view/cat-say-bleh-gif-26378492

me trying to pronounce it

[broken steeple]

lmfao

[hot sedge]

Real

[coarse yacht]

🤣

[honest flicker]

they are quite close in meaning, right?

[coarse yacht]

lmao...

[topaz bone]

tremble?

quaelen is torture or?

[hot sedge]

erbärmlich is like pathetic, meanwhile Erbarmung is mercy

[low cosmos]

Contempt of death

[topaz bone]

dictionary says defiance of death

[honest flicker]

erbärmlich I think is also well translated by 'pitiful' or 'miserable'. Demanding pity/mercy. And Erbarmen is showing mercy.

[coarse yacht]

miserable sounds good to me.

[topaz bone]

AAAH I thought I recognised Erbarmen from somewhere

[hot sedge]

That makes more sense now

[topaz bone]

well done Fairy!!!

[low cosmos]

good job fairy!

[honest flicker]

awesome as always!!!

[hot sedge]

HAB ERBARMUNG

Well done fairy

[topaz bone]

[low cosmos]

NOW YOU KNOW RIN MUAHAHA

[broken steeple]

[hot sedge]

HAHAHAHA

[topaz bone]

[topaz bone]

Make Felix write a summary for mocking you! @coarse yacht

[low cosmos]

a couple of words I noticed that I would've said differently to Base:

Skorbut

[topaz bone]

soz felix ahahaha

[low cosmos]

[topaz bone]

I've seen nix

yeah

more casual though, or?

[hot sedge]

Ich kann nimmer

Right?

[low cosmos]

[low cosmos]

[gilded ore]

Base did i make you chuckle earlier? tell me

[hot sedge]

Lolo's translation of the summary

[coarse yacht]

lmao... Base was reading!!!

[hot sedge]

Wait

Of the philosophy*

I need sleep

[low cosmos]

wait what did Base say? lol i didn't hear him

[hot sedge]

The implication of how humans empty the earth from the inside with their industries, real life comparisons can be drawn!

[low cosmos]

oh when I corrected Feza who said lolo was good at contextualizing when she translates rather than being stuck on the individual words Felix

[indigo patio]

was really fun

[hot sedge]

It was my first time listening while having lunch, couldn't complain!

LOL

[ripe stag]

What was written in the text was different. But also, leanan sídhe is old Irish, and I only speak modern Irish. So 🤷‍♂️

[indigo patio]

well it is true

[low cosmos]

woah a cliffhanger

[hot sedge]

Schade

[indigo patio]

normalerweise wird es als "creative abgekürzt"

[honest flicker]

||Filavandrel und Geralt führen eine philosophische Diskussion über die Möglichkeit des Zusammenlebens von Menschen und Elfen. Filavandrel hält wenig von Menschen und erklärt, wie Menschen den Boden mit Gewalt bestellen, statt wie die Elfen in Harmonie mit der Natur zu leben. Geralt konstatiert Filavandrels Menschenhass, wirft ihm Rachedurst vor. Laut Geralt ist das Zusammenleben die einzige Chance für die Elfen zu überleben. Aber Filavandrel will nicht mit Menschen zusammenleben. Für ihn sind Menschen nicht besser als Läuse und er will ihre Überlegenheit nicht anerkennen. Geralt tut Filavandrel leid. Geralt prophezeit das Ende der Elfenrasse und sagt Filavandrel, er wird eines Tages, wenn er alt und elend ist, zur Erkenntnis gelangen, dass Geralt recht hat.||

[low cosmos]

Hausaufgabe?

[broken steeple]

ahahaha sure

[minor pike]

Oh nooo 8th April I could do the whole session!

[indigo patio]

[ripe stag]

Wer ist Filavandrel? Die Freundin des Geralts?

[hot sedge]

Der Elf glaub ich

[ripe stag]

Oh!!!

[honest flicker]

bald, vielleicht

[ripe stag]

Danke euch!

[honest flicker]

sie haben ihre Beziehung auf jeden Fall vertieft

[hot sedge]

Spoiler

[low cosmos]

[ripe stag]

Wait, is Filavandrel a guy?

[minor pike]

[coarse yacht]

[gilded ore]

||Der Elf sagt, dass Menschen alles verändern. Menschen herrschen über alles. Die Elfen mussen Geralt und Rittersporn toten, um ihren Geheimnisse zu schätzen. Geralts sagt, die Elfen sollte zusammenkommen mit den Menschen. Der Elf sagt nein. Geralt will nicht dem Elf bitten, er sagt dass die Elfen später wird verstehen, das Geralt recht hatte. ||

Rin

You're asking me to do the impossible

[topaz bone]

waiitt

[low cosmos]

chocoloco doing me a heck

[hot sedge]

How can I imagine Geralt and Rittersporn in a way that remains good enough to post on the server

[low cosmos]

I DON'T REMEMBER ANYTHING

[hot sedge]

[gilded ore]

I'm OK with homework

[minor pike]

i want homework too

[honest flicker]

ja Hausaufgaben :D!

[low cosmos]

you guys, I graduated school years ago, no more schooling for me

[hot sedge]

My homework is to draw Geralt x Rittersporn

[minor pike]

it's because i know like a tenth of the story

[broken steeple]

Homework

[honest flicker]

plot twist: it's bird and plant species

[low cosmos]

Geraltersporn!

[hot sedge]

NOOOOOOO

[topaz bone]

@coarse yacht to seek for is suchen nach oder?

like to seek death in battle

[low cosmos]

nach etwas streben?

[hot sedge]

Heads up I'm not free from uni till May so no Geraltersporn from me until then

[low cosmos]

ne just didn't recognize the word

[topaz bone]

||Filavandrel erklärte, dass das Blümental in der Vergangenheit anders war. Die Elfen hatten im Einklang mit der Natur gelebt. Geralt erklärte, dass die Elfen zusammen mit Menschen leben müssen. Ihre einzige Chance zu überleben liegt bei den Menschen. Filavandrel stimmte nicht dazu. Geralt und Filavandrel diskutierten, wie die Elfen mit den Menschen noch existieren können. Geralt und Filavandrel beschuldigten einander des Hochmuts. Geralt scherzte über Toruviel aber Filavandrel lachte nicht.

Filavandrel sagte, dass er Geralt und Rittersporn töten muss, um ihr Geheimnis zu wahren. Rittersporn bat und sagte, dass er Menschen kennt, die ein Lösegeld bezahlen können. Geralt weißt Rittersporn zurecht nicht zu betteln, sondern zu schweigen. Filavandrel wolle nie mit Menschen handeln - für ihn sind Menschen wie Läuse. Geralt weissagte Filavandrel, wenn die Elfen sich selbst isolisieren werden, wird nur ihre Zahl schwinden. Sie werden krank werden, und werden nach dem Tod im Kampfe suchen.|| @coarse yacht

[honest flicker]

Maybe you should make a reminder so you don't forget

[hot sedge]

remind 45d ur free from uni draw Geralt x Rittersporn

[tacit mauve]

Okay @hot sedge. You will be reminded in 1 month, 2 weeks and 1 day.

[low cosmos]

I scare them away by translating one letter at a time

[hot sedge]

Bro I literally ate my lunch in your session

[low cosmos]

If you're lucky, sometimes I even translate a whole word!

[minor pike]

I'm just amazed at you staying awake abilities

[hot sedge]

Legendary: Felix translates a sentence

[low cosmos]

happens once in a blue moon

[hot sedge]

Same

I'm going super Saiyan this year

[low cosmos]

Rin I can't Deutsch as well as you can English

[coarse yacht]

False.

But I could so translate from ENglish to German.

[hot sedge]

Better to take some freedom and flex the translation a bit as long as the core context remains in place

[gilded ore]

When I look at the English, it gives me an idea of the senese, then it's easier to work out how the German works

[hot sedge]

German to English

[low cosmos]

I can translate German to Vietnamese

[minor pike]

German to English

[topaz bone]

eng to german is harder imo I need to rewire my brain ahahah

[minor pike]

I don't know words in German,

[hot sedge]

Translation is an expertise in itself

[honest flicker]

english to german requires a really big active vocabulary. The other way you can get away with passive vocabulary

[minor pike]

I also start getting Korean words when I am trying to translate Eng to German (I wonder if this happens to ppl learning multiple languages)

[honest flicker]

this is a fear of mine 😂

[hot sedge]

Same Rin same

[low cosmos]

me still angry about ''arranschieren''

[honest flicker]

and my excuse to never learn another language!

[topaz bone]

ooh! that happened when I was learning german and spanish in school, worst nightmare

kept saying "en mi opinion" in my German lesson...teachers were not impressed lmao

[hot sedge]

The day will come when I'll do German to Japanese!

[minor pike]

I'm still only in the script learning to of Jap so it hasn't started interfering

[low cosmos]

I'll do one better: I can do German to English to Vietnamese

[hot sedge]

I'll do German to English to Hindi

[gilded ore]

I find French words interrupt my German

[low cosmos]

Trilingual club

[topaz bone]

We're going to be speaking in tongues before long ahahah

[hot sedge]

I know 1600 Kanji

[honest flicker]

I'll do German to English and then back to German. Bilingual club.

[hot sedge]

[topaz bone]

sounds good to me!

[minor pike]

[topaz bone]

I can do the romaji but that's cheating lol

indeed felix

[gilded ore]

French number are ... interesting

[hot sedge]

Don't forget that you can count four and seven in two ways

[low cosmos]

juuichi juuni juusan juuyon etc...

[minor pike]

I know the one for person

[hot sedge]

Shi/yon, shichi/nana

[broken steeple]

Right, they count by multiplication or something don't they?

Heard about it

[minor pike]

i know the one for japan

[low cosmos]

yep

99 = 4 x 20 + 10 + 9

[hot sedge]

京都

[topaz bone]

Two cats are having a swimming race. One is called “One two three”, the other “Un deux trois”. Which cat won?

[broken steeple]

Oh, reading it, it does make sense how the language would evolve to that, yeah

[hot sedge]

無

[gilded ore]

[low cosmos]

[topaz bone]

[topaz bone]

I'd be happy to do sessions still

[gilded ore]

[low cosmos]

we can do a lesson when i'm supposed to be awake!

[hot sedge]

I'll be preparing for my art history exams (in German) so I'll have my own practice

[honest flicker]

sounds nice, I'm in

[low cosmos]

you all can stay up to 4am

[topaz bone]

do you get up early or stay up late?

[honest flicker]

bold of you to assume I wouldn't just get up at 4am

[topaz bone]

maybe short horror stories?

they normally aren't too long

[hot sedge]

How about short stories?

[gilded ore]

It could be fun

[broken steeple]

Isn't there anything originally German?

[hot sedge]

Damn

[broken steeple]

Not translated, i mean

[topaz bone]

OOH

[gilded ore]

Do you have flash fiction in German?

[topaz bone]

GRIMM'S FAIRY TALES

[low cosmos]

Base I can take a look at some other books I have in German, maybe the intro to some other books

[hot sedge]

I have this nice collection of books

[topaz bone]

there's loadsss

[low cosmos]

Grimm's are in older German tho, hard to read sometimes

[hot sedge]

Der Dativ ist dem Genitiv sein Tod

[topaz bone]

or maybe german folk tales?

[honest flicker]

could do an article, they're more feasible time-wise.

[hot sedge]

The columnist is very funny

[topaz bone]

Like Der Drache an dem Boden z.b.?

[minor pike]

okay i have a meeting again now, see you next week everyone!!!

[honest flicker]

[hot sedge]

That sounds fun

[topaz bone]

Fair enough but yeah definitely depends on the recipe

[hot sedge]

entkernen, abziehen, abschrecken

[topaz bone]

Base is exclusionary

[hot sedge]

Gaslight Gatekeep girlboss

[topaz bone]

[low cosmos]

What about Inkheart? That's written for children and originally in German

[topaz bone]

Didn't know that was German originally

[low cosmos]

Tintenherz

[hot sedge]

Only Felix has that much dedication

[topaz bone]

[honest flicker]

[low cosmos]

[coarse yacht]

Thank you everyone for joining. ^^

[low cosmos]

I DON'T KNOW

[coarse yacht]

Well I know. Its all calculated by me.

[coarse yacht]

konstatiert? WTH... lolo I have to look this up!!!
I guess it works in this context but... I never saw it before. XD Where does this come from?
*mit den Menschen zusammenleben(sounds better to me)
*Geralt tut Filavandrel leid (I think you have to change the names here --> Er tut ihm leid.)

This is amzing tbh. ^^" Good job!

[coarse yacht]

Der Elf sagt, dass Menschen alles verändern. Menschen herrschen über alles. Die Elfen müssen Geralt und Rittersporn töten, um ihren Geheimnisse zu schützen. Geralt sagt, die Elfen sollten mit den Menschen zusammenkommen. Der Elf sagt nein. Geralt will nicht den Elfen bitten, er sagt, dass die Elfen später verstehen werden das er recht hatte.

I am not sure what you mean with bitten? Maybe he doesnt want to beg?
Good job all in all. ^^

As always long and nicely done.

[gilded ore]

Thank you. Yes, I was going for beg with bitten.

[honest flicker]

I am also not sure about konstatieren, I have seen it a few places and don't have a good feel for what exactly it means 😂 I was testing the waters.

something like observing/remarking...or just 'saying'?

[coarse yacht]

Lmao… just testing me I see.

Why I am always nice to you lolo.

It’s good to learn new words, but this one I wouldn’t recommend in daily speech. I will ask some Germans if they know what it mean and come back here.

@honest flicker okay I asked two other natives and they were as clueless as I am. 😂

[mild badge]

der Tisch

[minor pike]

and Samsara = world in Sanskrit

[mild badge]

Das Telefon liegt am Tisch

[vestal cosmos]

das Telefon liegt am den Tisch

[drifting ferry]

Das Telefon liegt auf dem Tisch

[broken steeple]

Plotting that down, plotting that down

[mild badge]

oder steht

liegen ist besser mit Handy? zum Beispiel

[solemn wagon]

Hallo

[wary atlas]

Das ist nicht nur ein Tisch, sondern auch Brennholz.

[light cedar]

Das Telefon aus den neunzehnhundertern steht auf dem Tisch.

[keen gull]

Are there more contractions like in dem = im

[slender tapir]

ein*

[minor pike]

ins

[coarse yacht]

*aus dem Neuzehntenjahrhundert

[wary atlas]

Was ist ein Telefon? Etwas Altes?

[light cedar]

kann man machen, muss man aber nicht

[drifting ferry]

Das Telefons Farbe das steht auf dem Tisch ist grau

[light cedar]

übrigens Neunzehnten Jahrhundert @coarse yacht

[keen gull]

Samsara is more like the cycle of death and rebirth

It's something to escape

[minor pike]

yes another one

[keen gull]

Just like this game

[broken steeple]

Yep, was here! Do not remember what this is

[keen gull]

It's a puzzle game

[broken steeple]

was it night?!?

[minor pike]

I can't rmember much either

[keen gull]

I remember the weights

[broken steeple]

Ohh, right, of course

[keen gull]

Leaky Kopf 🫠

[wary atlas]

Was ist mit der Leiche passiert?

[violet marsh]

Sprich auf Duetsch rin!

[minor pike]

Haben wir in die Kiste geschaut?

[coarse yacht]

in die Kiste.

[proven kiln]

Did you get a heart from that man?

[minor pike]

Ja

[keen gull]

Danke dir für sprechen in Englisch und Deutsch

[broken steeple]

Hmm... T...

[proven kiln]

Ich mag dieses Spiel

[minor pike]

Die Hinweise sind in der Schublade, oder?

[keen gull]

Ja, genau. Ich kenne nur ein Par Worte in Deutsch

[coarse yacht]

*sind in der Schublade

[wary atlas]

Streichel die Eule.

[minor pike]

No no the other one

[keen gull]

Die Eule strecke flugen?

[wary atlas]

Du hast sie erschreckt!! Böse!!

[keen gull]

How did you say that?

No I was trying to type down what you said

[mild badge]

die Eule ist weggeflogen?

[keen gull]

The owl flew away?

[drifting ferry]

Die Eule sitzt jetzt auf die Uhr.

[keen gull]

Wegeflogen?

[coarse yacht]

der Uhr.

[drifting ferry]

wir benutzen Dativ hier?

[minor pike]

(left, straight, all the way back, right , straight)

[wary atlas]

Weggeflogen.

[keen gull]

Oh double gg

[minor pike]

Hmm which is the first page haha?

[proven kiln]

the right one

[minor pike]

aah

[wary atlas]

Ja. Wegfliegen = weg + fliegen. The "ge" in the middle is because it's the past participle form. Weg + geflogen.

[vestal cosmos]

auf is an Akkusativ/dativ Preposition, and since there is no movement to the verb we use dativ

[minor pike]

rechts, links, geradeaus, nach hinten

[alpine sequoia]

oha

[coarse yacht]

wow, you dont even listen to me.

[minor pike]

okay i just wanted to note fdown die Richtungen
