Can anyone teach me German

There are no private lessons or 1-on-1 tutoring offered here as everyone is a volunteer offering their help for free.
The purpose of this server is to help you put the skills you learn elsewhere into practice, for example by allowing you to chat in German, or by allowing you to receive help and feedback on your questions and work. As such, it's just one of many tools that can help you learn the language.

Are there still some kind of lessons here?
Yes! Our lovely volunteer hosts organise lessons and fun sessions from time to time. These are different from classroom lessons and are not meant to replace them. To find out more, check out #lesson-info!

How else can I use this server to learn German?
For more information about how the server works and how it can help you learn German, check out #info and #getting-started!

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 courses here: https://learngerman.dw.com/en/overview/

You can also see various other courses for learners by dw.com here: https://www.dw.com/en/learn-german/s-2469/

oh yeah I agree, I just find it interesting how the language has changed

#

Actually Perfekt and Präteritum are not just past simple? Because we use them both to say something about past. I would say there is no such a time like present perfect in German

wary atlas
#

Ich habe gesehen.

#

habe -> Präsens

topaz bone
#

"I have seen it" present perfect, vs "I had seen it." which is pluquam perfect?

gilded ore
#

This nomenclature is all new to me and I need to remember it

topaz bone
#

And there's no continuous present in German so it can often feel weird just writing in present in German as an english speaker

That's what I meant about Perfekt and Presnet Perfect in English

Although both tenses are formed similarly (auxiliary verb + past participle), their usage is not exactly the same.

1. Connection to the Present vs. General Past

  • English Present Perfect often links past actions to the present, emphasizing their current relevance:
    • I have lost my keys. (→ I still don’t have them.)
  • German Perfekt is mostly a spoken past tense, used for completed actions without necessarily implying present consequences:
    • Ich habe meine Schlüssel verloren. (→ Just states what happened in the past.)

2. Perfekt vs. Präteritum in German*

  • In German, Perfekt is the default past tense in spoken language, while Präteritum (simple past) is more common in written narratives (e.g., novels).
  • English doesn’t have this split—Present Perfect is a distinct tense with its own rules.

3. Life Experiences (ever/never)

  • English Present Perfect is often used for life experiences:
    • Have you ever been to Paris?
  • German can use Perfekt similarly, but it’s not the only option:
    • Warst du schon mal in Paris? (or Bist du schon mal in Paris gewesen?)

4. Time Expressions

  • English Present Perfect cannot be used with specific past-time expressions (yesterday, last week):
    • I have seen him yesterday. (must use Past Simple)
  • German Perfekt can be used with such expressions:
    • Ich habe ihn gestern gesehen.
      Summary:
  • English Present Perfect = past actions with present relevance, experiences, unfinished time.
  • German Perfekt = general past tense (mainly spoken), often equivalent to English Past Simple.

It's a bit like in French: a past tense that is mostly written and one that is the spoken one

coarse yacht
kind lotus
#

Ok, I thought u meant thah they are used in same way, this from Deepseek xD

bright elk
#

I studied linguistics, "perfect" basically means that the action is concluded, if I remember correctly

#

Basically "perfect" is not an indication of "how much in the past something is", but rather if an action is concluded or not

#

English and German do not have a ton of times, so these names seem to make no sense, but if you take Italian you will see that some times are called "imperfect"

#

Because the action is continuous

gilded ore
#

I just needed to know what to call the tenses so that you could understand what I was saying, and your summary is perfect for that Base

In any case, I'm looking forward to the next session

You are welcome. ^^
The story is Eine Frage des Preises from Der letzte Wunsch. We started the 2nd chapter and ended when the Queen greeted Mister Gokgokling. There will also be a summary thread in #985224391849807872 so everyone can catch up on the story. Sorry I wasn't able to do that yet. But also Base will always give a summary for every session.

And about the time, we have another session soon on Saturday! At a more German friendly time, maybe you would like to join Edibs session:
