Maybe Peter killed Max and is hiding the body. 🤔

#

And then Max' ghost came back to do the same to Peter.

boreal zealot
#

The body fell on top of Peter so he couldn't be found

tranquil escarp
#

New plan: German is too complex, Juan teach us Spanish instead. mmlol

boreal zealot
#

A si podemos tambien empezar con español

I can teach Spanish 🙂 👍

¿Te dije alguna vez sobre el tiempo que robé tres gusanos?

😅

#

Y te los comiste ?

tranquil escarp
#

No, he creado una granja de gusanos. Esperaba que se reprodujeran y yo conquistaría el mundo con mi nuevo ejército de gusanos. Pero resulta que el gusano son soldados horribles. Ni siquiera podía matar a un solo hombre.

#

Wan teach him more German.

#

Ja, ich bin immer da.

quartz otter
#

I'm still a bit confused about "Denn dann machen_______ meine Familie und ich auf den Weg nach Italien." Anyone able to explain why it's "sich"? (here or in #questions if that's more appropriate)

tranquil escarp
#

@boreal zealot ^

#

Nerdball los. 0x1, du bist dran.

boreal zealot
#

sich auf den Weg machen is a set phrase which always requires a reflexive pronoun

#

it's fancy for "aufbrechen"

tranquil escarp
#

Oh, he wants to know why we go for sich and not uns or something.

quartz otter
#

Exactly

boreal zealot
#

I also wanna know this Thonk

#

it's a set phrase yo. you always have to use sich because thats just how the phrase is formed™

quartz otter
#

So no matter who's going, you use "sich"?

boreal zealot
#

Ah so it's just a common set expression

#

that might sound disappointing but theres no other way of explaining it

#

well, you could say "wir machen uns auf den Weg"

#

sie (die Familie) -> singular -> sich

#

thats why you have sich

quartz otter
#

But isn't "my family and I" = "we"?

glass rune
#

und ich

#

yeah

boreal zealot
#

Oh I'm so sorry, I misread that. Yeah, it should be uns in that case

#

My bad

#

"Meine Familie und ich machen uns auf den Weg nach X"

glass rune
#

thought so.

quartz otter
#

Okay, then it makes sense. Thanks!

boreal zealot
#

Gotcha

glass rune
#

you always have to use sich because thats just how the phrase is formed™
“ich mache sich auf dem Weg” is definitely 600 percent wrong tbh 😛

#

damn n and m keys 😠

boreal zealot
#

Nah, I was referring to that sentence in particular ❤

pallid dome
#

hinaufgestarrt

#

is that a word

ruby ocean
#

it is now

tranquil escarp
#

Yes.

pallid dome
#

whats its meaning

#

started up?

thin goblet
#

gaze towards the sky

#

kinda like that

pallid dome
#

upstairs?

#

ok thanks

tranquil escarp
#

It's the past participle of hinaufstarren. Which is hinauf (up) + starren (stare).
nach [dort] oben starren to quote Duden.

quartz otter
boreal zealot
#

Oh thats a bit mean of them. See it like that "Dann macht sich meine Familie auf den Weg." They're leaving and you just happen to come with them. Since we have two objects (die Familie u. Ich) that form the actual subject, we have to change the verb as well: er/sie/es macht -> sie machen. It's a weird case but this time you don't have to change sich to uns since it mainly refers to your family.

quartz otter
#

What's the reason that the family is the "main" object?

#

Also, would it be wrong to use "uns" here?

boreal zealot
#

Family is the main object because it got mentioned first. Using "uns" would be wrong in this case

quartz otter
#

Hmm, would it then be "mich" if it was "ich und meine Familie"?

ruby ocean
#

no, the subjects in the sentence are still the same, the order is just switched. I am not 100% confident in this explanation but: you could imagine "meine Familie und ich" as "sie", which thus takes "sich" in reflexive

quartz otter
#

@ruby ocean well, the explanation from @boreal zealot seems to indicate the order matters. And surely "meine familie und ich" is equivalent to "wir", not "sie"

ruby ocean
#

I am not sure why the order of how the subjects are presented would matter as the two subjects are taken as one to determine the "person" of the sentence, but naturally I could be wrong. Yes, I should have been more clear, I was imagining it as if someone else was taking about it from a third person perspective but that would obviously change the subjective case rendering my point moot. I initially agreed with you that it seems logical that it should be "uns" and I am not honestly sure how to explain why it should be "sich". Everything I can think of in English would be "us" or "ourselves" which would be "uns"

#

now that I think about it more, I think the text is wrong

#

surely it should be "uns"

#

I have looked at other examples, such as:

Meine Familie und ich fühlen uns diesem Feriendomizil
Meine Familie und ich trafen uns mit der Blindengruppe

The subjects are the same and it is logical they should be "uns", so I am not sure why the text should be different

#

I was thinking of it being a weird case of German of just being different from English, as it can be, but in this case I think not

quartz otter
#

I agree that that would be the logical answer, but @boreal zealot is a native speaker and didn't think so

ruby ocean
#

then we shall have to wait for him/her to return or another native speaker to answer

#

I could ask my girlfriend as well one moment

#

well she seems to agree with @boreal zealot, as it does seem to be at the actual order of it

#

you were right, my bad lol

#

I never expected that when thinking in English about it

quartz otter
#

@ruby ocean Does she say it should be "mich" if the order is switched?

ruby ocean
#

no, "uns"

quartz otter
#

Haha, what

#

This is a bit odd

ruby ocean
#

still two subjects

quartz otter
#

Well yeah, but it seems you could make exactly the same argument for "mich" with the reverse order as with "sich" with the original order

#

Oh well

ruby ocean
#

yeah, this is new to me, I am going to look this up

#

there will be something about this

#

bit troll of German grammar if it is the order of what gets chosen rather than the subject itself

quartz otter
#

Seems like a bit of an edge case, might be hard to find info on it

#

Wonder if this also applies if you have "you and those other guys" vs "those other guys and you"

#

with euch and sich

ruby ocean
#

you'd think so

#

since the second person would just be then plural

#

can't seem to find anything - honestly not sure what to search - so might ask on the German stackexchange

quartz otter
#

Okay, please shoot me a link if you do

ruby ocean
#

I'll notify you when I do

#

it's a bit different from what we discussed after I discussed it with my girlfriend

tranquil escarp
#

Downvoted and banned for not doing research yourself.

quartz otter
#

Closed as a duplicate [link to question that's not remotely similar]

tranquil escarp
#

Haha. Stackoverflow memes. ❤

ruby ocean
#

what are you serious?

#

oh it was a joke

tranquil escarp
#

Stackexchange sites have a reputation for being not very welcoming to new users.

#

So we were memeing a bit, yeah.

ruby ocean
#

I've had that bullshit happen before

quartz otter
#

@ruby ocean Wait, so what did your gf say about those last two sentences?

ruby ocean
#

they're grammatically correct but it is impolite to put "ich" first

quartz otter
#

Oh, then we might have misunderstood each other, when I asked about switching the order I meant the order of the subjects, not the word order

ruby ocean
#

yeah I realise that now

#

but I think my sentences cover all bases

quartz otter
#

Yep, looks like it

quartz otter
#

@ruby ocean Well, you got a reply, although I don't understand it

ruby ocean
#

yeah, if his explanation is correct then I don't understand it either

#

all I did was move the subject

#

how does that make it become something else?

#

his answer is what I initially thought before thinking over it

#

and I don't think the type of person changes if I move it, or does it?

boreal zealot
#

What do you guys actually do during reading circles? I've been in this server for a while now but I'm too shy to join in.

wary atlas
#

You can always just join and listen in. ❤

#

No requirement to participate.

boreal zealot
#

Oh, really? That's great then. I'll join in when I have time.

wary atlas
#

To answer your actual question though, the person running the session links us to a text and we each take turns reading a sentence and translating it (with help if we need any).

#

And we generally discuss things related to the text as well. Depends on the session though.

boreal zealot
#

Oh, okay. That sounds interesting

ruby ocean
#

@quartz otter The answerer added a clarification which made it a bit more clear. Can't say I entirely understand it now but I guess that's just the way it is

quartz otter
#

@ruby ocean Does your gf agree that "Meine Familie und ich machen sich dann auf den Weg nach Italien." is a valid sentence?

#

The person who replied at stack seems to be claiming that you can freely choose between sich and uns, and that changes the person, ie. the word order isn't actually what matters?

ruby ocean
#

I'll ask her

#

it might be a case of using reflexive verbs like the passive voice

#

because you can't form the passive voice with reflexive verbs

#

as they're sorta already are

quartz otter
#

Maybe the "Meine Familie und ich" order can take both forms, but the "Dann machen" order can only take "sich" ...

#

@boreal zealot did say "uns" would be wrong in the latter

boreal zealot
#

Yall had grammar?

#

about Reflexive pronouns?

#

i have no idea what i missed in the last couple of days tbh

leaden verge
#

Meine Familie macht sich auf den Weg
Wir machen uns auf den Weg

you can choose either sich or uns in this case, depending on what you want to refer to

#

both work for me

quartz otter
#

@leaden verge What about the sentence "Dann machen ___ meine Familie und ich auf den Weg nach Italien"?

ruby ocean
#

my gf agrees it is a valid sentence

boreal zealot
#

Sich? i suck with reflexive

leaden verge
#

it's the same but i would prefer "sich" in this case as it is closer to "meine Familie"

ruby ocean
#

is it a case of passive vs active voice whether it's sich or uns, or no?

#

in this case

leaden verge
#

it is more a case of what you see as the subject of the sentence

boreal zealot
#

or you could put sich anywhere

ruby ocean
#

that don't make sense to my English brain

quartz otter
#

@leaden verge If the sentence is "Meine Familie and ich machen ___ dann auf den Weg nach Italien", does your preference change?

boreal zealot
#

i would say Uns

#

i think is the right one here

wary atlas
#

In the "sich" version, is it sort of like you're only talking about "my family" but the "und ich" is more like "my family (which includes myself)"?

#

Rather than "my family" and "myself" as seperate things.

boreal zealot
#

@wary atlas nice avi

leaden verge
#

there i would put either depending on wether you see "Meine Familie and ich" as a chain of subjects or as one big subject of the sentence

wary atlas
#

Danke.

boreal zealot
#

Bitte

ruby ocean
#

so you can emphasise whether you care more about a particular subject of the subjects or a subject as a whole with the type of reflexive pronoun you use?

leaden verge
#

hard question, i guess yeah, but i cannot come up with a situation like this where it would actually make a difference

#

i guess "Meine Familie and ich machen uns auf den Weg" sounds a bit more like one group than "Meine Familie and ich machen sich auf den Weg"

#

but i have to really think about it to notice any difference

boreal zealot
#

spam sich

quartz otter
#

Thank you, @leaden verge, that clarifies things a bit

ruby ocean
#

yeah thanks

#

quite the hornet's nest you stumbled upon henbruas

leaden verge
#

it seems that what i wrote is not technically correct though

quartz otter
#

How come?

leaden verge
#

"Dann machen uns meine Familie und ich auf den Weg nach Italien"

is not supposed to be grammatically correct, but i would still use it tbh

quartz otter
#

What makes it ungrammatical then?

#

Does this specific word order force you to use the third person? Or is ""Meine Familie and ich machen uns dann auf den Weg nach Italien" also technically wrong?

leaden verge
#

"Meine Familie and ich machen uns dann auf den Weg nach Italien" is correct because you could just substitute "Meine Familie and ich" for "Wir"

#

I think "Dann machen uns meine Familie und ich auf den Weg nach Italien" does not work because the sentence structure does not allow for the same replacement

#

if you were to put "sich/uns" after the subject it would work

#

i think you can only put "sich" in front of the subject if it really is "sich" not "mich/dich/uns/euch"

ruby ocean
#

"Sie machen sich dann auf den Weg nach Italien" is equally valid, right? Having it become "sie" doesn't remove the fact "ich" is included in the "sie", due to it being clear by context? For example two sentences:

Meine Familie und ich bereiten vor. Sie machen sich dann auf den Weg nach Italien.

leaden verge
#

*bereiten sich vor

#

but yes, it is valid

ruby ocean
#

oh right, forgot it's "sich" when you're doing it

#

okay thanks

#

I guess in English it would always be "us" or "ourselves" when "I" is included, hence the confusion

quartz otter
#

In Norwegian as well

<@&229594762762649601> no reading circle today, sorry for telling so late. I'll try to fill this hole up as soon as I can, but due to work, it might be hard the next few weeks.

#

the one next week should still take place

sharp wind
#

What's the reading circle?

boreal zealot
#

you read in a virtual circle

sharp wind
#

xD

#

German Literature?

boreal zealot
#

like we pick some text, usually for A1-A2

#

then take turns reading and translating lines

#

its fun

sharp wind
#

A'ight! Once a week?

wild hollow
#

😢

#

@sharp wind From what I know yes, it's once a week. Correct me if I'm wrong please

sharp wind
boreal zealot
#

it depends, we had one on friday too

wild hollow
#

I checked the pinned messages and it seems like it's one link every 7days but maybe they read the same thing two days in a row?. Like they split it in two or so

#

Hey

light jetty
#

I'd love to read some Faust, some day, honestly.

ivory karma
#

why not

#

but that would be C1-C2

#

But why not arrange also B and C Reading Sessions?

wild girder
#

What would that entail?

#

Reading a paragraph and voicing out our opinions about said paragraph?

crude shard
#

Discussion would be nice though

#

Plus some people greatly benefit from structure

wary atlas
#

It's not really a matter of "need". Technically no one "needs" a reading circle. But if Bs and Cs want to learn together, that seems like an excellent idea.

crude shard
#

I imagine it would be more similar to the book club idea I've seen tossed around

#

But with shorter articles and such

wary atlas
#

@boreal zealot Why are you opposed to it exactly?

crude shard
#

Focused on the language aspect insofar as participants would use German

wary atlas
#

How so?

#

Even a native speaker of a language can learn from a reading circle in that language. As an example, I study English constantly as a writer, and discussing language with others is incredibly beneficial for that.

#

Okay, fair point. In that case, let's agree not to make the reading circles mandatory.

wild girder
#

.....

#

kids

#

we're all adults here, right?

#

most likely the ones at B2 and Cs are at least 20 years old

#

The competency of being a B2 and later C, is measured by being able to voice out or write a complicated idea with your own understanding. I think although it might perhaps devolve into shits and giggles, it could probably be interesting to talk in German on certain articles or ideas and speak it

#

my issue on this particular segment, is that we're doing it in the VC, which would probably only entail one person speaking at a time, and the rest listening

#

which would mean you probably don't get a lot of chances to practice it out

#

a 3 person or 4 person group would probably be good

wild girder
#

I'm just saying, that your experience with kids, who learn German "because it's part of the curriculum" are not the same as with people who do have to learn for the sake of their degree or their future

#

hence I mean, the result and atmosphere could be different

boreal zealot
#

So in effect youre saying that the reading circle is moot?

#

oh this was 5 hours ago

no, the sentence is incorrect

Der Sommer ist (schon) fast ... -> The summer is almost ...

Do you guys have a simple text for me ?

look at the pinned messages

why is it incorrect?

if you started yesterday you may wanna check out memrise or duolingo to get a more structured intro 👀

I think this is the wrong channel for these questions, sorry to point it out. 😄

loud fjord
#

Yea it's what I'm doing

#

"The summer is almost" is also an incorrect sentence, because it's not finished

#

it's the same with the german one

loud fjord
#

I'm french Native and alot of words don't even exist in french so it's hard

boreal zealot

"Der Sommer ist schon fast wieder vorbei" why is this incorrect?

the summer is almost gone

when did you say the reading circle starts?

7pm CET.

@loud fjord wrote a wrong translation
Der Sommer ist schon fast wieder vorbei is correctly translated as The summer is almost over again

Wouldn't it be the summer is already almost over again?

@rugged cedar CET and CEST are the same time zones, both +1 when compared to GMT, it's just that CEST is used in the summer but I was too lazy to write the S

#

just kinda hoped that people know that cest is used in the summer

rugged cedar
#

wrong wormic, 3pm cet is 4pm cest

#

summer time (fast forwarding time 1 hour) is the difference

wind marten
#

ye I know

#

they aren't the same time

#

but the same countries use these 2 time zones

#

and they swap when it's summer/winter time

rugged cedar
#

yes, i was just hinting at that difference, since i didnt know whether or not you were aware.
so in 1.5h from now is the session then

wind marten

if we go by CEST, it would be in around 30 min, if we go by CET then it was supposed to be half an hour ago
