@Maskinkultur Sorry for replying this late. So if you want to try some more or less unknown dishes, here's a short list for you:

Labskaus (a weird beef/fish/potato/beet dish, served in northern Germany)
Since you guys are big on weird fish stuff (-> Surströmming, yuck^^), I thought this would be a great start. This channel, in general, has a lot of good recipes you can go nuts on, very recommended.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2sobLA80AAI

Currywurst (basically just sausage with ketchup and curry. More of a dish of Berlin, but very popular throughout Germany)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OxvCK7eUMfw

Semmelknödel (a bread-dumpling served as a side to meaty dishes (like roasts or goulash, etc.) but can easily just be eaten as a vegetarian option with almost any sauce. Holy grail in southern Germany)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DZwYOkcTSXE

Flammkuchen (a sort of sour-cream/onion pizza, traditional to the French border states, and we actually had this exact video already here in the channel sometime ago):
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_fA6HA4o4iI

Zwiebelkuchen (literally means "onion-cake", and that's what it is. I already posted this as a response to the Flammkuchen, but since it really is that delicious, I'll do it again. Goes very well with white wine):
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AcN7WSeRJo8

But I think that should be enough for now, I don't want to spam the channel any further 😉

Session 37 (2020-09-27 at 11:00 UTC)

Hello everyone!
Ill be running a lesson on n-declination/weak nouns on the 27th at 11.00 UTC.
Get keen!

This topic is about A2-B2 level and the only prerequisite knowledge you need is an understanding (can be shaky) of cases in German, as this topic relies upon them quite a bit. But as per usual all are welcome to attend!

cedar tide
#

Is there any Session on A1 part

delicate vortex
#

@cedar tide yeah theres usually a weekly beginner german lesson, this week there hasn’t been one scheduled though

cedar tide
#

@delicate vortex hmm ok

sharp hemlock
#

We should have beginner lesson lead by beginners

#

Let the blind lead the blind 🦯

sacred grove
#

We should have beginner lesson lead by beginners
@sharp hemlock yes ... we need to be adequately represented in the upper class

sweet current
#

@delicate vortex do you know when a beginner class will be next? how do you get onto one of these classes?

delicate vortex
#

@sweet current someone volunteers every week to recap @wary atlass lovely beginner sessions, and he usually runs a new one himself. theres currently no one scheduled for this week, so maybe this week if someone Volunteers, else possibly next week

#

To join in on the class, just join the lessons VC at the scheduled lessons time, you can see up coming lessons by typing >lessons or >sessions in #botchannel

note that the right side only applies to yes/no questions

#

Wh-questions (or rather, w-questions, I guess, since it’s German) have the wh-word first and the verb second

Beispielsweise:

Woher kommst du?

It's not "Kommst woher du?"

For English speakers it also helps to realize English functions the same!

Thanks for the translations!

prime dirge

i use Qtranslate you only press ctrl+Q and it gives a window with the translation

delicate vortex
#

-and, -ant, -ent: der Elefant- des Elefanten, der Student, der Doktorand usw.

green pebble
#

usw. means etc. ?

prime dirge
#

usw. means etc. ?
@green pebble

und so weiter

delicate vortex

-ist: der Polizist- des Politzisten, der Journalist, der Kommunist usw.

prime dirge
#

are those ends whenever we see them we use the artikel Der?

#

ach so

storm turret
#

and das herz doesn't decline in accusative

delicate vortex
#

Words stemming from Greek (mostly occupations): der Biologe- des Biologen, der Demokrat- des Demokraten, der Philosoph, der Monarch, der Fotograf usw.

tawny obsidian
#

I've heard of weak and strong verbs, but not weak and strong nouns actually 😅 how do u differentiate between weak and strong nouns?

storm turret
#

weak masculine nouns are a small group of exceptions

#

most nouns don't decline

tawny obsidian
#

Ohhh alright, sorry for the random question haha

green pebble
#

how do u differentiate between weak and strong nouns?

as everything, you memorise 🤣 or use this rule of thumbs

storm turret
#

rules of thumb however are again just rules if thimb and not set in stone rules because german can't be that easy

knotty rock
#

🙃

storm turret
#

"behindert" was the exact word used

high mantle
#

I don't recommend circumventing rules mmlol

green pebble
#

Germans are really tolerant for learners
I'd recommend learning properly and not taking shortcuts, because you definitely don't want to 'reach' C1 and still making such mistakes

high mantle
#

I personally wouldn't criticise you for not knowing, but I would criticise you for making use of your 'shortcut' mmlol

prime dirge
#

when we speak can we use (de) on any word we dont really know what the correct artikels? as someone told me before that some native in dialects

storm turret
#

no it's better to make a wrong gender guess than to mush it

green pebble
#

I have a tandem partner, and she is honest when I ask her how bad my German is
but when we're sharing things about our lives, I don't focus on her errors nor she focuses on mine

prime dirge
#

like plattdeutsch as i remember?

storm turret
#

trying to speak dialect when you're not fluent in german will also put you in some tricky situations

high mantle
#

Obvsly I am just one native speaker tho, so I can't tell you what 'all natives' gonna say, but imagine a person doesn't understand your word and you repeat again and again. I think some will notice your 'shortcut' :P

delicate vortex
#

A couple of other common ones: der Mensch- des Menschen, der Nachbar- des Nachbarn, der Narr- des Narren, der Prinz, der Rebell, der Satellit, der Soldat, der Kamerad usw.

prime dirge
#

trying to speak dialect when you're not fluent in german will also put you in some tricky situations
@storm turret

i thought of it like a defense mechanism

green pebble
#

yeah this my german friend she says that her ears hurt, but she's more tolerable with learners 😄

storm turret
#

e.g. people might assume you're much more fluent if you use dialect or you mught use the wrong area's dialect and get looked at like a weirdo

delicate vortex
delicate vortex
storm turret
#

also generally every time you practice the full form the better you get at it. so mushing grammar is just slowing your progress in speaking accuracy

Oh you can put den Monarchen at the back as well as after the verb? Bc I thought the time (Te) comes after the 2nd verb

intimidate (someone), typically into doing something, with stern or abusive words.
"a witness is being browbeaten under cross-examination"

for browbeaten

prime dirge
#

Definition of browbeat
transitive verb

: to intimidate or disconcert by a stern manner or arrogant speech

delicate vortex
#

The bears roar was fearsome!

I find 'browbeat' as 'to tyrannise', but that would make the right form borwbeating, wouldn't it?

For those learners who want to join in on reading momo but currently find it a bit too difficult, there is an 'easy reader' version available here:
https://www.klett-sprachen.de/momo/t-34/9783126741040
What might be a good idea is to read the easy reader version so you know what's going on then have a crack at the original version, using what knowledge you have about each scene to try and intuit what unknown words mean

#

@delicate vortex Pinging you too in case any beginners you know are interested

delicate vortex
#

What a fabulous resource

#

I might do an impromptu reading tomorrow actually

storm turret
#

Sadly i've yet to find a copy through my usual connections, blu. only a physical copy for purchase

storm turret
#

allerdings sieht sehr schön aus. hat Worterklärungen unten auf jede Seite und natürlich leichte sprache

delicate vortex
#

Ohhh es hat ja Worterklätungen wie schön

#

Vielleicht besorge ich mir eine Kopie

Lessons
The lessons held on the server don’t have a consistent schedule, because we allow lesson hosts to choose their own times and days. Lessons are held in the Lessons voice channel along with the #lessons text channel. Everyone is welcome to listen to the lessons even if they don’t wish to participate.

You can subscribe to a specific group to get pings whenever a session is announced. The current lesson groups are:

  • Reading: Read and translate German texts together.
  • AdvancedReading: Like Reading but aimed at B2+ speakers.
  • Grammar: Lesson about a specific grammar topic.
  • Activities: Speaking practice, learning games, or things that don’t fit in the other categories.

Session 40 (2020-11-15 at 10:00 UTC)

Hallo allerseits!

Wir lesen dieses Wochenende Momo vor!
Whoo! Schon so lange her

Das Ziel unserer Lesestunde ist: auf Deutsch vorzulesen und folglich in selben Worte die eben vorgelesende Handlung zusammenzufassen.

Wir lesen von Anfang des 5. Kapitels an vor, bis zum Anfang des Nächsten.

Zeitpunkt: Sonntag, 10 UTC
Treffpunkt: im Lessons-Kanal

Ich hoffe ihr macht auch mit ❤️

river bobcat
#

Since you're reading Momo here, I'd like to share my vocabulary list of that book. It's by no means perfect (I originally made it for personal use and there are probably some mistakes in translation or translations different from the context here and there), but feel free to give it a look.

#

I also didn't know how to type umlauts at the time so I used oe instead of ö for example

minor umbra
#

hat jemand Momo auf Deutsch

delicate vortex
#

@minor umbra ja, eine Kopie des Buches steht bereits zur Verfügung, sie ist nämlich in diesem Kanal angepinnt

#

Vor einigen Wochen haben wir ganz am Anfang begonnen, aber am kommenden Sonntag lesen wir vom 5. Kapitel an

wir beginnen in ungefähr 45 Minuten mit dem Vorlesen von Momo. Heute Nacht/Abend/Morgen fangen wir mit dem fünften Kapitel an. Bis dann!lieb

#

:D :D :D

unreal coral
#

Wir lesen Momo auf diesem Server seit 1976 😐

delicate vortex
#

So ungefähr XD

runic badge
#

I mean reading an entire book does take some time

delicate vortex
#

Wenigstens so fühlt es sich

unreal coral
#

Selbstverständlich, Mami, aber eigentlich meine ich, dass wir zwischen 3 oder 4 Bücher wechseln könnten, anstatt zu warten, dass wir zuerst mit einem ganzen fertig sind.

delicate vortex
#

@storm turret erfreue dich es geht bald los 💖

#

@unreal coral dieses Vorkommen liegt vermutlich daran, dass ich derzeit die einzige bin, die Lesestunden (einigermaßen) regelmäßig plant. Und ich will halt eben Momo lesen XD

unreal coral
#

@delicate vortex und das ist immer etwas Schönes. Momo ist ein tolles Buch. Das war nur eine Idee unter anderem.

delicate vortex
#

Keine Sorgen. Falls du irgendwann darauf Lust hättest, könntest du auch Lesestunden planen und so hätten wir die Möglichkeit mehr als ein Buch gleichzeitig durchzulesen

delicate vortex
#

Nur noch 5 Minuten

#

Die perfekt Menge zeit um euch Wasser kochen zu lassen und euch ein wenig Tee zu besorgen

okay jetzt gehts los!

#

Is cereal soup?

river ocean
#

@lapis scaffold well no cuz soup is vegetable juice

boreal zealot
#

Not always. depends on what soup it is. So that statement is @river ocean

river ocean
#

Nice one

#

Yes true

#

There is tomato soup

#

But its just tomato juice cuz its a fruit

boreal zealot
#

can someone explain this to me

#

Left side is preposition, right side connector

#

ok

#

that was clear

#

but how do we swap them

storm turret
#

Turn the verb into it's noun equivalent and pop the preposition in front
E.g. Bevor ich ankomme, esse ich Keks
That becomes
Vor meiner Ankunft esse ich Keks
ankommen means arrive and die Ankunft means the arrival.

Breakng that down
[Wenn ich esse], [werde ich Krank]
The clause with the subjunction in it gets reduced to preposition + noun, and the comma dissapears.
If there's an object in the clause with the subjunction then that can be expressed in a couple ways but von + noun is a normal way.
Wenn ich Keks esse, werde ich Krank.
Beim Essen von Keks werde ich krank.
