other-languages

[crystal kindle]

because of no cases you can;t move stuff around like German

[lost marsh]

yea coz almost no cases

worder order carries the language

[crystal kindle]

yeah exactly

[lost marsh]

i guess you could call it positional grammar

[orchid crypt]

it’s just normal no

can you not like move time and subject in dutch?

[crystal kindle]

time is pretty strictly in like the 3rd spot of the sentence

ik kan om 3 uur

but you can swap it, just not very natural to me

[orchid crypt]

so you couldn’t do „verlede jaar het ek die Toets geskryf"?

[crystal kindle]

verlede jaar = next year?

[orchid crypt]

last

[crystal kindle]

and geskryf?

[lost marsh]

geskryf

wrote

[orchid crypt]

yeah

[lost marsh]

i just learned that

[crystal kindle]

that word is pretty normal actually

just that it's either vorig or vorige depending on if it's a de/het word

[lost marsh]

thank god we don't have that in afrikaans

[orchid crypt]

imagine having genders

[lost marsh]

w afrikaans

[crystal kindle]

tbf like 80% of words are de

[lost marsh]

wow gender discrimination

[orchid crypt]

unironically the hardest thing i had with german in the beginning was genders

[lost marsh]

german is more balanced

[crystal kindle]

die trips me up

[orchid crypt]

also whenever i don’t know a german gender i just automatically go back to die

die feels so normal to me

[crystal kindle]

because we have die in dutch but it's used more like ''that''

[lost marsh]

tech you're die biased

[orchid crypt]

yes

it also sounds nice

nur eine kleine Sache

goes hard

[lost marsh]

i dont have a gender i default to

sadly

[orchid crypt]

understandable

i usually notice early learners default to der/das but never die

from what ive seen

where my die defaulters at 😔

[crystal kindle]

i'm used to only 2 so i mess up a bit

[lost marsh]

you guys killed neuter

[orchid crypt]

going from no genders in my languages to 3 was not fun

[lost marsh]

you should've taken the dutch route

[crystal kindle]

F

[lost marsh]

then the transition would've been less jarring

then eventually german

[crystal kindle]

it indeed is

[real ice]

Summerrr

Haii

[orchid crypt]

I could probably bs my way through dutch fine

[crystal kindle]

the vocab is the annoying part

[orchid crypt]

but i just genuinely can’t like the language

idk

[lost marsh]

@real ice hiiiiii

[crystal kindle]

wel jammer

[orchid crypt]

ik some afrikaans speakers got jobs with dutch companies cuz they spoke with an accent 😭

[lost marsh]

klok

[crystal kindle]

ooh the lack of wel in German also took a day to start feeling normal

[lost marsh]

what is wel

[crystal kindle]

doesn't exist in english

[lost marsh]

wel jammer looks like was ein jammer

[crystal kindle]

wel is like a emphasiser word

it emphasises the word after

wel goed, wel slecht, wel moeilijk, wel makkelijk

[lost marsh]

does it exist in afrikaans @orchid crypt

[orchid crypt]

it’s like

yeah

wel, fok

but it’s usually like

a little spaced

[crystal kindle]

best way i can put it is that you can never use it if you don't want

[orchid crypt]

idk if that makes sense

[lost marsh]

fok is fick?

[crystal kindle]

but it's very common to hear as more or less a filler word

[orchid crypt]

ja

[orchid crypt]

yeah exactly

[lost marsh]

fok jy

does that work?

[orchid crypt]

it’s a filler word

[crystal kindle]

same as graag

[orchid crypt]

no

fok jou

[lost marsh]

why jou

[orchid crypt]

cuz it’s like uhhh

[lost marsh]

that's like the possesive pronoun

[crystal kindle]

subject vs object vibes

[orchid crypt]

yeah

[lost marsh]

wat is jou naam

[crystal kindle]

yeah

[orchid crypt]

fuck idk how to explain the differences

[lost marsh]

jou is possesive pronoun!!

[crystal kindle]

hoe heet je

is more common to ask in Dutch

[orchid crypt]

but it’s also like used with the akkusativ case ig

ek sien jou

I see you

ek sien jy wouldnt make any sense

if it’s being affected it changes

[lost marsh]

ok so accusative exists

[sullen needle]

bonk @devout elm

[grim lynx]

You have prescribed 147 bonks to @devout elm.

[lost marsh]

jy sien my?

[orchid crypt]

yes but no one calls it that really

[lost marsh]

you see me

[orchid crypt]

i just say that because ik u would get it

[orchid crypt]

yeah

that’s right

not jy sien ek

[lost marsh]

u

[crystal kindle]

oh you guys have julle

[orchid crypt]

i fucking hate

sy

sy was genuinely my enemy in school

who designed sy its so shit

[lost marsh]

@orchid crypt is there a heißen equivalent in afrikaans?

[orchid crypt]

yes

you wont guess what it is

ever

[lost marsh]

heet

[orchid crypt]

yup

😭

[lost marsh]

is it uncommon?

[crystal kindle]

wait let me see something

respond in Afrikaans pls @orchid crypt

[orchid crypt]

more personal ig

[crystal kindle]

hoe lange leer je al Duits?

just wanna see how much we can understand

[lost marsh]

even i understand that

[crystal kindle]

no like a small general conversation

[orchid crypt]

ek leer vir teen maande?

[lost marsh]

we also could do a more complex convo

[crystal kindle]

ah leuk

en op welk niveau zit je?

[orchid crypt]

ek weet nie

[crystal kindle]

jammer

[orchid crypt]

b2

[crystal kindle]

waarschijnlijk op A2 of B1 ofzo als je een wel grote zin wilt maken

[lost marsh]

c1

du hast die püfung bestanden

[orchid crypt]

what’s ofzo

[crystal kindle]

ben je ooit naar Azie op vakantie gegaan? @orchid crypt

[crystal kindle]

or so

[orchid crypt]

ek woon in Duitsland

[crystal kindle]

dus nog nooit naar Azie op vakantie dan?

[lost marsh]

ok so woon exists, i learned bly so far

[crystal kindle]

also in Dutch

[lost marsh]

ek bly in n woonstel

[orchid crypt]

this one hurts my brain

is dus du?

[crystal kindle]

dus = so
nog nooit = still never
naar azie = to asia
op vakantie = on holiday
dan = than

[orchid crypt]

ic

asië>>>

[crystal kindle]

probably best to ask you but did you understand a lot?

[orchid crypt]

i would say i could understand the jist but not fully

sometimes a word trips me up and then i get confused

[crystal kindle]

yeah same as me dw

[lost marsh]

woonstel sounds like stable for horses

idk why thats what i think

[orchid crypt]

it’s weird how afrikaans sometimes uses umlauts

reël

[crystal kindle]

Dutch does rarely

[orchid crypt]

Asië

[crystal kindle]

Azië

[lost marsh]

only ë?

[orchid crypt]

does dutch have the ô

the lil hat

[crystal kindle]

nah

[lost marsh]

the one umlaut german didn't want

[orchid crypt]

yuh

môre

im a big fan of

[lost marsh]

i think german pitied dutch and gave them this letter

[orchid crypt]

sê

[orchid crypt]

who doesn’t pity them

[lost marsh]

dit reën

[crystal kindle]

me

[orchid crypt]

@crystal kindle do you also combine dit + is= dis

[crystal kindle]

dit is

doesn't combine

[orchid crypt]

interesting

dis so maklik

[crystal kindle]

dat is sometimes goes to das

depends on person really

[orchid crypt]

@lost marsh btw like no one ever uses „u“ as a pronoun

[crystal kindle]

u gets used in Dutch however

but it's more a formal thing

[orchid crypt]

i mean same in afrikaans

but afrikaans people arent formal

[crystal kindle]

fairs then

[orchid crypt]

maybe if you got official documents they’d use u

[crystal kindle]

jij also exists though

[orchid crypt]

dafuq that

[crystal kindle]

formal of je

[orchid crypt]

whats je

😭

[crystal kindle]

you

[orchid crypt]

julle?

[crystal kindle]

jullie = you all

[lost marsh]

jij

im probably gonna accidentally learn dutch too

at this rate

[orchid crypt]

do you have almal?

[crystal kindle]

almal?

everyone?

[orchid crypt]

there supposed to be like 80% transversal

julle almal

[crystal kindle]

what's that

[orchid crypt]

all of you

or you all

[crystal kindle]

nah just jullie

[orchid crypt]

well all of you more specifically is like almal van julle but julle almal you all

[crystal kindle]

yeah we just do jullie

[orchid crypt]

it’s so interesting to see where the languages speak

[crystal kindle]

Afrikaans just hurts my brain

[orchid crypt]

dutch also

[crystal kindle]

yeah right

works both ways

[orchid crypt]

honestly meeting a dutch speaker has been very fun

[crystal kindle]

but like we'd probably get 70-80% of the conversation with each other

but that 20-30% is a wow

[crystal kindle]

https://tenor.com/view/anime-hey-hello-peek-smile-gif-17556391

[orchid crypt]

80% sounds high until youre in a conversation 😭

[crystal kindle]

yeahhhh

[orchid crypt]

i doubt you could do cape afrikaans though

or maybe

[crystal kindle]

probs not

[orchid crypt]

lemme pull up my fav poem

[crystal kindle]

I wanna say here also, dit and deze both mean this

genders 😎

[crystal kindle]

i've heard it's easier for Dutch speakers to understand Afrikaans than for Afrikaans speakers to understand Dutch

I think the genders really messes it up

[orchid crypt]

dead internet theory is real it’s so hard to find stuff nowadays

[orchid crypt]

yes

why do yall got genders in the big 2026

[crystal kindle]

idk

you guys have conjugation right?

[orchid crypt]

all i can find is analysis instead of the original

ahhhh

[orchid crypt]

no

lmao

[crystal kindle]

ik woon
je woont

oh christ

[orchid crypt]

😭

[crystal kindle]

ggs

holy ggs

[lost marsh]

w afrikaans

[orchid crypt]

afrikaans deadass the most simple language out there

[crystal kindle]

this is defo true then

what about separate verbs?

aankommen for example

[orchid crypt]

we have them also

[orchid crypt]

here is cape afrikaans not the poem i wanted though

[crystal kindle]

lekke = nice?

[lost marsh]

lekker

[crystal kindle]

lekker is more used with food

[orchid crypt]

lekke is very weird in afrikaans because it’s a part of south african english

but anything good is lekker

[crystal kindle]

okay

[orchid crypt]

you can refer to a person as lekker

and no one woild think more literal

[crystal kindle]

we do lekker = nice, tasty etc and leuk = nice, cool, etc

[crystal kindle]

yeah so someone did that before and we thought it was weird

''lekkere vrouw'' being nice woman

[crystal kindle]

but with this context it can read a bit odd

[orchid crypt]

interesting

lekka is also the more common way it’s like said

because again it’s grown out of afrikaans

[crystal kindle]

https://tenor.com/view/ishowspeed-yuorki-egyptian-speed-funny-gif-6210991462615795229

[orchid crypt]

if i say „yeah that was lekka jol“

[crystal kindle]

vibes

[orchid crypt]

evryone gets me

[crystal kindle]

fair enough

i'd probably be pretty decent in Afrikaans if i studied it then 😭

[orchid crypt]

deffo it’s hella straightforward even for english speakers (imo) so if you know dutch it’s definitely easier

[crystal kindle]

Germanic languages are just easy if you already speak another one

imo

[frigid hinge]

Other languages = english chat lmao

[crystal kindle]

tbf we mixed in some Dutch/Afrikaans 🙈

[orchid crypt]

guy who doesn’t read anything

[frigid hinge]

I read

I just saw mostly english but ik there are other languages, it's ironic

[solid geode]

I'm not good in greek

[solid geode]

Oh ok

[frigid hinge]

I'm learning since 5 days 😭

[solid geode]

Oh sheesh hahah

[frigid hinge]

I can understand basic things

[solid geode]

You are better than the average 5 day-long learner lol

[frigid hinge]

I use ChatGPT for words list

And grammar

[solid geode]

Good

[frigid hinge]

And also duolingo

[solid geode]

Do you know the most frequent words series?

[frigid hinge]

I didn't learn a lot since

[solid geode]

I mean the book series

https://a.co/d/02oPnhNb

4 books total 10k words. Very good for word lists. Word, translation, example sentence and translation of the sentence

All in frequency order from most frequent to less frequent

[frigid hinge]

Noice

Thx

[solid geode]

Very good stuff indeed, couldnt recommend it more

[frigid hinge]

A few verbs, nouns

You're native ?

I'm trying to learn it fr

I mean not only for the trip

[solid geode]

Nope

[solid geode]

I was talking about the most frequent words book series

[solid geode]

Thats great, greek is a very interesting language, youll enjoy it

[frigid hinge]

I'm native french so some words are sightreadable

Ex : χρώμα

Chroma

But others are harder

[solid geode]

Yeah greek shares a good bit of vocabulary with romance languages plus their common suffixes, prefixes and radicals that often have the same meanings

But most of the language's vocab is constituted by greek origin stuff that is not present in other languages so this part is harder

[crystal kindle]

@frigid hinge greek is a cool language to learn

[crystal kindle]

French from France or Belgium?

[south light]

Also just a correction as a native English speaker

In your bio: “all I’ve to say” is incorrect, I don’t know the grammar behind it but we don’t use contractions in certain instances

I’ve got to say

Or I have to say

Both work

[south light]

Il y a aussi des cantons francophones

[crystal kindle]

i don't speak french

[crystal kindle]

this is incredibly normal in Irish English so i see no problem with using it

[south light]

I doubt OP is trying to speak Irish English

[crystal kindle]

probably not but also pretty common in British English

[south light]

Oh yeah definitely

Just not grammatically correct

And if especially when one is trying to learn a language they should avoid learning such slang if they haven’t developed the Sprachgefühl

[crystal kindle]

i won't argue that because idk how grammar works in English

[south light]

Idk if there’s a word for that lol

[lost marsh]

thats british english core

[frigid hinge]

Thx

Editing 🛠️

Done

[frigid hinge]

France

[frigid hinge]

I'm not trying to speak irish nah

My english is a bit british tho but I don't think that's a valuable reason...

[proud pumice]

Does anyone know a french learning server?

[sly briar]

If u want a server to learn a language try using chat gpt to find, i found this server on him

[sly briar]

Provavelmente porquê é a língua universal da internet

[solid geode]

Look for it on reddit

[sly briar]

Mas eu por exemplo falo português e entendo espanhol também

[solid geode]

Try the french learning community there, usually these language learning communities have their official discord servers on their wiki

And if it is not there just try searching discord inside the community and you'll find it for sur

[proud pumice]

I found one

Thqnks

Its just thqt i dont know any other place to ask for interesting french youtube videos to listen to haha

[gusty sail]

Im pretty sure ts is not a language

[lean oracle]

it is it is

no worries

[sly briar]

Holy

That must be really hard to learn

[lean oracle]

proto indo european i think

[sly briar]

From what i found, thats not really a speakable language

[lean oracle]

i mean it is

[gusty sail]

túh₂ ǵn̥néh₃si?

[lean oracle]

né (idk im guessing like basically everything here)

[crystal kindle]

it is but just way too old to understand without a lot of learning

[gusty sail]

subjective, but as for *ǵneh₃- you maybe can see some similarities to: Germanic können, can; Lithuanian žinoti and Latvian zināt; Latin gnoscō

[south light]

Makes sense that’s what I thought

[lean oracle]

yippie i guessed it

i would not know how to form sentences in PIE even with a dictionary

it is a really cool language though

[gusty sail]

me too, like in my sentence idrk what word order it should've been

[polar thicket]

Hello everyone

I'm new here

[serene ermine]

I am also new here

[polar thicket]

Really

I saw your request and I accepted that

[regal wind]

Deu para perceber

[sly briar]

Jura?

Crl mano esse server apaga a risada brasileira

[regal wind]

Quando li o interessante "chutei" que fosse brasileiro tbm

[sly briar]

Pior q tem bem pouco brasileiro nesse server

[regal wind]

Melhor evitar (finja que no lugar deste parênteses têm nossa característica risada)

[sly briar]

Eu vi gente até do Egito aqui

Mas vc é o primeiro brasileiro

[regal wind]

Eu diria que entre nós brasileiros, alemão não é uma língua muito bem vista (finja que há a risada aqui)

[sly briar]

É verdade

As pessoas acham mto difícil também

E tem os estoriotipos q eu e vc sabemos doq eu me refiro

[regal wind]

O que pega no alemão é que sua origem é totalmente diferente do português

Então a intuição vai pra casa do chapéu

[sly briar]

Ent

É tipo aprender a andar denovo

[regal wind]

Eu estudo francês e por vezes a mera intuição no francês ajuda um pouco na hora de usar este idiomaag

[sly briar]

é completamente diferente

[regal wind]

Agora alemão é mais hard

[sly briar]

No máximo ajuda eu saber inglês

[regal wind]

Sim, pois são idiomas próximos

Qual teu nível em alemão, meu caro?

[sly briar]

Sinceramente da pra dizer q zero

Tô aprendendo o alfabeto ainda

[regal wind]

Estamos no mesmo nível então

[sly briar]

(risada)

[regal wind]

Ao menos tu tens uma vantagem

Tu sabes bem inglês

[sly briar]

Foda

Pelomenos isso

[regal wind]

Eu só tenho um francês meia boca (finja que há a risada aqui)

Tu usas o que para estudar?

[regal wind]

Je connais un serveur très bon

[sly briar]

Youtube

[twilit brook]

Opa, desculpem interromper mas qual é o estereótipo? Fiquei curiosa agr

[regal wind]

Tu tocaste num ponto interessante, "esteriótipo"

Assim, eu deveria ter utilizado outros termos quando escrevi, eu quis dizer, precisamente, que no Brasil o alemão não me parece ser uma língua muito bem quista, as pessoas preferem aprender mais, o inglês, o espanhol e francês.

Até japonês deve ser mais estudado aqui que alemão

Agora tomando por base esteriótipo, alemão sofre um problema grave por conta da história da Alemanha e de umas birras culturais, como do sul do Brasil com resto dele

Isto é apenas como eu enxergo as coisas, não é nada fundamentado ou coisa do gênero

Às vezes há uma comunidade imensa de alemão no Brasil e eu não faço ideia

[twilit brook]

Ah tá certo, já entendi!

Faz sentido o espanhol e o francês por estarem mais próximas do português

Mas japonês não sabia

[regal wind]

No caso do japonês tomei por base a galera que curti anime

Com certeza uma parte dessa galera deve estudar japonês

Full achismo meu

[twilit brook]

Verdade 😅

[regal wind]

Enfim, como tá teu nível de alemão? Você usa o que para estudar?

[twilit brook]

O meu entre A1/A2 só comecei alguns meses atrás

Uso flashcards, podcasts, livros para iniciantes, YouTube. E tu?

[regal wind]

Só uso Busuu e Duolingo

E ainda sou bem iniciante

Às vezes assisto alguns vídeos no YouTube, pelo Easy German

O Busuu eu recomendo fortemente e o Duolingo só uso pois não quero perder 550 dias de ofensiva

[twilit brook]

Hahaha imagino

Sim já ouvi falar bem

E easy German também é fixe, já vou apanhando algumas frases sem legendas

[regal wind]

Fixe?

Você é de Portugal?

[regal wind]

Livro é interessante

Terias alguma recomendação?

[twilit brook]

Eu li a frase outra vez e percebi que ia denunciar

Mas sim kkk

[twilit brook]

A série Nico lernt deutsch. É recomendada para A1/A2, mas com A0 eu já entendia algumas coisas

[regal wind]

Não entendi

Eu não queria ofender ou coisa do tipo, é que "fixe" eu considero um termo muito característico dos Portugueses

[ripe lintel]

Români?

[regal wind]

Ihhh

Vou pôr meu A-0 pra teste então

[regal wind]

Portuguese

[ripe lintel]

Eu nao falao portuguese

[regal wind]

Portuguese from Brazil and Portugal

[twilit brook]

Não ofendeste, sem problema. Mas realmente o “fixe” é dos portugueses

[regal wind]

Et français ?

Parlez-vous français ?

[ripe lintel]

Non

[regal wind]

Mais tu as utilisé un mot Français

[ripe lintel]

English deutsch română

[regal wind]

[regal wind]

Dar limba ta este înrudită cu noi.

[south light]

Il ny a aucun mot français dedans

[sly briar]

Não vou mentir, mesmo sendo brasileiro adoro falar fixe

Eu uso fixe como se fosse poggers

[lost marsh]

@orchid crypt whats the function of these 2 words

[orchid crypt]

die aand is the evening

i personally would’ve said in die aand

which sounds more natural to me

i forgot exactly how order of time is tbh

[lost marsh]

doesnt gisteraand

already mean that

"i have yesterday evening 6 o clock in the evening outwent"

[orchid crypt]

I went last evening six o clock in the evening out go

unless they’re implying it as the place

then they mean they went into the evening

ig

[lost marsh]

evening as a place

thats

not normal

poetic

[lost marsh]

is that a normal way to say it?

honestly the deck could just be wacky who knows

[lean dragon]

Yoo
