I can do teuer, at least I think I am doing it correctly. But it's hard to do it correctly and I'm the order of teurer in my brain.

#

It took me days to say zurück correctly for example. I'm not even sure if I can consistently say zurück on command....

@hasty socket my friends got me Pokemon Weiße for Christmas. I'm A1+ at the moment but was thinking of getting started soon. Any tips? I did play 4th and 6th Gen but I missed out on 5th ...

#

I'm pretty confident I can beat Pokemon. But to do so in German will be the real challenge lol.

#

I think I am A2 knowledge-wise / reading / grammar, if I take it slowly. My vocab definitely isnt ready though ...

#

ivory girder
#

i keep it at home aswell because the ds is like triggering the anti theft security in the stores 😟

#

but when i used to walk around daily i kept it in my bag and see if anyone else does it

#

especially in the malls

#

i dont play much usually but i wanna replay all the pokemon games atleast once, and then move them to the newest ones to collect

#

or if i feel like playing anything i did when i was a kid bbut thats like some obscure games 😭

lime pine
#

im playing hg&ss right now

#

but the xp scaling is so slow im bored

ivory girder
#

yeah its BAD

#

kinda makes me mad people keep calling it the best game ever because all of the flaws are still in it from the original gold silver 😭

#

#

bro i loved d&p

ivory girder
#

gen 4 was my favourite since childhood, but i def had it better in my memory

#

platinum is still good but it absolutely has its flaws

#

diamond and perl had ALOT of flaws but as a kid and when it was the newest games you just didnt really care it was still fun

lime pine
#

i actually didnt get my first mainline game till 2016, sun and moon

#

when i was a kid like in 2007, i had pokemon mystery dungeon

ivory girder
#

#

i didnt realise they also had a third version until like last year 😭

#

i think it was time and darkness and then sky

#

I still have all my ds's from my childhood

#

they're in great condition

#

but I mostly play on my 3ds xl because the small screens hurt my eyes

ivory girder
#

i think ihave my dsi aswell but its with my mom

#

i had a 3ds bu my mom got me a new 3ds xl because the internet wasnt working on that one and i have it ever since

#

the internet issue was just switching something in the router so it was for nothing 😭

lime pine
#

omg bro

#

thats crazy

#

and those r expensive too

ivory girder
#

i dont even think back then it was that mch

#

How to get started

The simplest way to learn German is to find topics you don’t understand yet and search for explanations of them. This list provides you with a guide for which topics to learn if you are completely new to German. Type the topic into Google (or YouTube) and start learning!

Introduction

1: Alphabet (especially ä, ü, ö and ß)
2: Basic greetings (hello, goodbye, etc.)

Part 1 - Simple Sentence

1: Noun gender & plurals
2: Nominative case (What are cases?)
3: Nominative pronouns (I, you, he, she, etc.)
4: Verbs in present tense
5: Definite/indefinite articles
6: Accusative case (for nouns)
7: Accusative pronouns
8: Word order of simple sentences
9: How to ask questions

See Part 2 on the next page.

Tips
  • Always learn the gender of a noun when you learn a new noun
  • Learn to use a translation dictionary (e.g. dict.cc, leo.org)
  • Use >faq resources to see our list of German learning resources
  • For listening and pronunciation practice, try watching movies or videos (incl. YouTube)
  • You can listen to pronunciation for words on websites like dict.cc, forvo.com, and others
  • Practice writing sentences every day (and asking people to correct them)
  • Ask as many questions as possible
  • Don’t be scared to make mistakes!!!! If you don’t let yourself make mistakes, you will never be able to learn German

How to get started - Part 2

Please make sure to read Part 1 before starting Part 2!

Part 2 – Beyond a Simple Sentence

1: Conjunctions (coordinating and subordinating)
2: Subordinate clause word order
3: Dative case
4: Dative verbs
5: Verbs with two objects (e.g. geben)
6: Prepositions (accusative, dative, and two-way)
7: Spoken past tense (Perfekt)
8: Written past tense (Präteritum)
9: Genitive case
10: Relative clauses
11: Adjective declension

Tips
  • Make sure to practice writing and reading simple texts
  • Some of these concepts are confusing to start with, so it’s a good idea to ask for help in #questions when you’re unsure
  • You should use a declension chart to help with declension to start with, because you won’t be able to memorize it straight away
  • After you feel confident with creating sentences, you can start learning the adjective declension properly by using the command >faq adjective declension and reading the guide provided

You don't want to think about the translation as much. If you remember the actual meaning of the word, not what it translates to in your native language, you are more likely to remember, and it's better for language learning

It’s a major reason Europe in general is a goal for me. I’ll take any Racism I see, I just don’t want to die of overwork.

#

Major reason I want to learn German.

@trail locust got my first test results, 51%. Sigh. The average is in the 40s tho with one classmate getting 20%.

What's killing me is that I was confident in my grammar but that's where I did My worst and with hören it was horrible. Lesen was as i expected

#

I also do study daily, son I don't know. Sigh

I guess I’ve kinda given up on things getting better in America

Du solltest übrigens jede Gelegenheit benutzen, um auf Deutsch zu schreiben/sprechen

#

Tu so, als ob du schon ein Muttersprachler wärst, benutze die Sprache, als ob die dein Default wäre.

# main raven Is moving to Osterreich or Deutschland for better labor rights a valid reason?

In German it is Österreich, but in English those countries are called Austria and Germany. You do have labor rights in America, they are simply not as stringent as in Austria.

Which country is better for you to work in is highly dependent on your field and personal circumstances. If you are a software engineer at a large tech company, you will see this very differently from a cashier at McDonald’s - then again if you are a cashier at McDonald’s your chances of immigration are slim. Nobody can decide which country is better for you based on news headlines and statistics with zero context.

#

I’m thinking that maybe my path into the country will be doing a Masters Abroad.

#

It’s tough, I agree.

#

But at least in Germany, you guys can Unionize.

#

Here, Labor Unions are basically shot.

#

Ronald Reagan’s fault.

forest apex
#

You will have to decide if that remains your priority after having gotten a masters degree .

main raven
#

We here in America have much worse labor rights than most countries in Europe

#

That’s probably a much more accurate assessment

forest apex
#

And I am not in Germany so I don’t know what union, for example, is active at let’s say NVIDIA - if any.

main raven
#

Okay, fair.

#

Essentially, my options for a life are “wait for things to get better here in America”, which, well, the people are too lazy to change things.

#

Or move abroad where things are a bit better.

forest apex
#

Your job which is one among many in the USA.

#

And can be changed by you.

main raven
#

No, it’s with how the American system allows these jobs to get away with all this shite

#

We don’t have protections.

#

Even if I were to get a “better” job, it wouldn’t solve this. And it wouldn’t protect me from being thrown into another job with shitty rights.

forest apex
#

Well, many people do a masters in Germany, so you will not be alone in that. Just know that to be competitive and land a better job you will need fluent German.

main raven
#

Yeah, well, that’s my motivation.

forest apex
#

One thing I know is that though some masters programs are offered in English, German is really key to be competitive. Also private universities are not as highly regarded in general as public ones.

#

Where I work, there is at least one German man who grew up in Germany and now lives and works in the USA.

#

Some from Scandinavia and Eastern Europe as well. Though some of course remain in their home countries, not everyone wants to move to the US or has a visa, and the H1B rules aren’t making anything easier.

#

I don’t know any Americans who have moved abroad but I’m sure they’re there as well.

How to get started

The simplest way to learn German is to find topics you don’t understand yet and search for explanations of them. This list provides you with a guide for which topics to learn if you are completely new to German. Type the topic into Google (or YouTube) and start learning!

Introduction

1: Alphabet (especially ä, ü, ö and ß)
2: Basic greetings (hello, goodbye, etc.)

Part 1 - Simple Sentence

1: Noun gender & plurals
2: Nominative case (What are cases?)
3: Nominative pronouns (I, you, he, she, etc.)
4: Verbs in present tense
5: Definite/indefinite articles
6: Accusative case (for nouns)
7: Accusative pronouns
8: Word order of simple sentences
9: How to ask questions

See Part 2 on the next page.

Tips
  • Always learn the gender of a noun when you learn a new noun
  • Learn to use a translation dictionary (e.g. dict.cc, leo.org)
  • Use >faq resources to see our list of German learning resources
  • For listening and pronunciation practice, try watching movies or videos (incl. YouTube)
  • You can listen to pronunciation for words on websites like dict.cc, forvo.com, and others
  • Practice writing sentences every day (and asking people to correct them)
  • Ask as many questions as possible
  • Don’t be scared to make mistakes!!!! If you don’t let yourself make mistakes, you will never be able to learn German

I mean im myself b2 german, my brother and most of my family are studying in german or have experience in german . Menschen is usually good for the goethe exam but research urself as well

@trail locust sorry i was in class yesterday and when i went home i slept, gonna check out the video

here's the interesting thing tho

the class has 11 people,
1 didn't get her marks
2 got 70% mark

3 got the 60% mark

only i got 50% mark

3 got the 40% mark

1 got 20% mark

i did better than i thought in lesen, my highest mark, 8 out of 14
Hören i knew i would do pretty bad in it, the main issue was the wortschatz i didn't know enough wortschatz to understand the answers or what is being said, 3 out of 8

the rest were grammar which funny enough, i THOUGHT i did better in it than not. something i thought i'd get 5 out of 5 of became 1 out of 5, another thing i was also confident i would ace was 1 out of 3. i even got half a point deducted because i put the auch of " wie auch " somewhere i shouldn't and when i asked my teacher where should one put auch normally she said somewhere around after subject... which is what i did? so yeah. my biggest fehler were the grammar that i was confident of. fun stuff

Hi everyone, I’m new to this server because I want to learn German as efficiently as possible. I don’t have a time limit for studying it; I’d like to understand and speak it at a B1 level, or maybe even B2, mainly to handle basic and intermediate conversations on different topics. I’ve tried watching YouTube videos and reading Reddit posts about the most efficient way to learn, but I’m a bit confused about which approach is best. If you have any advice or tips, feel free to contact me privately. I’d really appreciate it. Thank you 😉

Id suggest the book Begegnungen, honestly I personally went to a tutor but some study it themselves by just

  1. Learning the grammar in the book and practicing it in the books workbook
  2. Resding and trying to understand the texts and memorizing the words you don’t know from them
    But if you’re completely new like don’t even know the alphabet id suggest starting with a tutor

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 program here: https://learngerman.dw.com/en/nicos-weg/c-36519789

You can also see various other courses for learners by dw.com here: https://learngerman.dw.com/en/overview/

Erstens: Du solltest hier so oft wie möglich auf Deutsch schreiben, um dein Deutsch zu üben.

Zweitens: Das ist doch völlig normal.

Drittens: Hast du versucht, andere Dinge zu tun, die technisch gesehen nicht "Lernen" sind, allerdings nützlich sind? Podcasts anhören, Filme anschauen usw?

(Er wirft die Hände in die Luft.)

Nein, nein, nein, so geht das nicht! Man kann die Temperatur nicht einfach schätzen! Wir haben Zahlen, und das hat seinen Sinn! PRÄZISION!

(Hustet dramatisch.) Ach du lieber Himmel, es riecht hier nach verbrannter Zivilisation!

(Zeigt anklagend auf jemanden.) Wer hat denn Plastik in den Ofen getan? WER MACHT SOWAS? Das ist keine abstrakte Kunst, das ist Abendessen!

(Geht unruhig auf und ab.) Ich hab's dir doch gesagt – lies die Anleitung! Schritt eins, Schritt zwei, Schritt drei! Es gibt ein System! Es gibt immer ein System!

(Knallt einen Topf auf die Arbeitsplatte.)
Sieh dir das an! Totale Katastrophe! Absolutes Küchenchaos!

(Wirft erneut die Arme hoch.)
So kann ich nicht arbeiten! Ich brauche Ordnung! Struktur! Belüftung!

Na gut. Wir kriegen das hin. Wir putzen. Wir fangen von vorne an. Aber dieses Mal… halten wir uns an das Rezept.

Und niemand fasst den Ofen ohne Aufsicht an. Verstanden?!
