I'm watching this YouTube video about beginner German and they recommend learning how to make plurals by first memorizing the genders ....

That's backwards from my brain though. I personally found it easier to memorize the plural form and then remember the gender from that lol

I do work on plural + gender for each noun.

nicee

[magic fossil]

Nice to me to

[spark sierra]

Yeah, this doesn't feel like an A1 lesson to me lol

I mean yes, this is an A1 subject but I don't think people in A1 level would understand enough of it

Either that, or the beginner student is expected to send all of this to Google translate or something?

I think it's solid review, and I'll still recommend Grammatik aktiv.

[slow bane]

honestly i agree when i was first starting out i couldn't just sit and like understand from this i needed someone to help me understand because i didn't know enough to do so on my own

[opal sequoia]

It seems totally fine to me.

Yes you should feel comfortable using a dictionary to help you.

That's normal though.

[spark sierra]

If a teacher were around to explain things, this is usable. But for personal study?

No.

Absolutely not.

[slow bane]

exactly the case

i think it gets a bit fair at around a2.1 or a2.2 where you know a bit to understand then

that was the case for me at least and her everyone has a different experience learning

[opal sequoia]

I think it is totally usable for personal study for people who are comfortable learning grammar independently. It won't be suitable for everyone though.

What part of it do you find difficult?

[stuck sail]

Hi guys I'm trying pronunciation on google translate with ä and ae like Däm and Daem why do they sound different tho while it should sound the same, no? Is this because google translate is bad.

[opal sequoia]

Don't use slurs please.

[stuck sail]

ok sorry

[spark sierra]

"Das Verb ,,wollen'' ist nicht höflich, wenn wir etwas direct von einer Person möchten''

Subordinate clause in lesson 6?

This book hasn't even covered akk or dativ yet.

or heck, the next chapter is lol Trennbare Verben, to give an idea of how early this is still....

A1 student wouldn't even have the grammar to understand this sentence even if they word-by-word translated it with a dictionary.

Unless the A1 here means A1+ (graduated from A1), but I find that unlikely given that its nominally about kann, will and möchte.

It is solidly an A1 lesson, nominally. I just don't think any A0 student (trying to reach A1) would stand a chance at this.

Its good review though. I intend to complete it all and work up to the A2 levels in this book (and eventually B1). But I wouldn't consider this a primary textbook for anyone.

[opal sequoia]

I disagree. It's pretty easy to understand once you know the words. And yes, you're not expected to have the skill to make the sentences in the instructions. You're just expected to complete the exercises. If you can do that then it's suitable for you.

[opal sequoia]

Why can't it be a primary textbook paired with some English explanations of grammar?

You make it sound like textbooks should be judged based on whether they can be used completely alone without any other resources.

Obviously any resource can and should be used alongside other resources.

[spark sierra]

Verb last in a subordinate clause is not "easy" for a beginner to get.

Maybe with a teacher explaining it right there.

or translating for the student.

certainly not something in the 1st or 2nd week that a "lesson 6" would cover.

[opal sequoia]

I think it's hard for people who overthink it and feel like they need to understand everything. But people who are comfortable parsing sentences even if they don't understand how to use all the grammar generally won't have issues with this sentence.

[spark sierra]

This is the definition of wollen, and the first time its used in the textbook.

Its kind of important to understand.

[spark sierra]

Yeah, I'm fortunately well into "somewhere" in the A2 region. So its a piece of cake for me to read all of this even without a dictionary.

I'm just surprised to see this book labeled as A1-B1.

[opal sequoia]

Yeah, you need to understand it. You don't need to write the sentence yourself. So you don't need to know how subordinate clauses work.

[spark sierra]

I think A1+ (student registered in A2.1) is sufficient to use this as self study or review of A1 concepts.

[opal sequoia]

I'll show an example of a lesson 1 from a textbook I was using to learn Polish.

[opal sequoia]

Here's an example of one totally suitable for beginners, that doesn't even include explanations at all.

[spark sierra]

I mean, its something a teacher could explain in 10 seconds.

So maybe that's really it. If this is intended for classroom study, its fine.

[opal sequoia]

For some people that may be necessary but a lot of people would be fine just reading the textbook directly.

I don't really see what's difficult about the sentence "the verb wollen is not polite if we would like something directly from a person".

People may have some further questions about different scenarios and nuances but the basic description by itself seems easy to understand.

[spark sierra]

The verb wollen is not polite, when we something direct from a person like.

[opal sequoia]

No?

[spark sierra]

Unless they're using Google Translate, that's the order it comes out as.

Because week 1 or week2 students are NOT going to know how to rearrange words into English style grammar.

[opal sequoia]

Some people get stuck on literal translations, sure. But many don't.

[opal sequoia]

Yeah, again, they don't need to translate it. They only need to understand it.

Understanding is much easier than translating.

[spark sierra]

After spending time translating it, they won't have a chance of understanding it in that order. Until someone shows them how German sentence structure and orders work. Which is solidly like A2.1 or something for subordinate clauses or at earliest maybe very late A1.

But yes, a Teacher can translate this important sentence and allow the students a chance at completing this page.

[opal sequoia]

I feel like you're just projecting your personal weak points onto all learners. You have weak points in learning languages, maybe that includes having trouble with literal translations. Other people have completely different weak points.

You are not every learner.

You are just one person.

If it's too difficult for you, that's okay. Different things work for different people.

[spark sierra]

Do you... not like me or something?

Like if you want me to leave, its easier to just ban me. But I don't think I did anything wrong here.

[opal sequoia]

My view on you is neutral.

[spark sierra]

Heh.

[opal sequoia]

No one said you did anything wrong.

[spark sierra]

I find that hard to believe with that last sentence of yours.

[opal sequoia]

Which sentence?

[spark sierra]

Look, its fine if you don't like me.

[opal sequoia]

Is this a pride thing? I'm not trying to criticise your skills. I'm saying everyone is different and what you struggle with is different from what someone else will struggle with. That's true for all learners.

[spark sierra]

This isn't the first time you insult me directly.

This is a pattern with you.

I'm just trying to point out something here with this book I'm working on right now as an amusement. Its not even something I'm struggling with, and yet you've managed to turn it into an insult with my level of German.

When I'm actually struggling on a subject, its that much more annoying.

But today, I can just laugh it off.

[opal sequoia]

I don't get what you mean? I never insulted you. "Everyone has weak points" is just reality, it's not an insult.

[spark sierra]

Okay, so you're the kind of person who can't see it.

That's fine.

[opal sequoia]

I think you're just reading too much into it. Your pride was hurt because I said you have some things you struggle with, and you take that as an insult when it's meant it be just an acknowledgement of us all being human.

[spark sierra]

And now its a pride thing of mine?

How far do you want this to go?

[opal sequoia]

Yes, it seems like that.

[opal sequoia]

Want what to go?

[spark sierra]

This discussion. I'm curious where you want it to end.

Is there anything else you want to tell me?

[opal sequoia]

I think it's over? I just clarified that what I said was a general comment and not specific to you. Everyone has weak points. So as long as that's clear I think that's all.

Sorry if you felt it was personal.

[spark sierra]

So just to be clear. You want to tell me that my pride projects my own weak points on other beginners.

Because I posted a picture from a book, I'm studying right now?

And that you're sorry for me, not for the words you said.

[opal sequoia]

Ah, no, not because of the book. Because you keep talking about all students, all learners, etc. saying they all wouldn't be capable of doing it. So my point was, even if you personally have trouble with it, that doesn't mean everyone does, because everyone is different.

But since you're feeling overwhelmed by it, it probably seems to you like no one could do it.

[spark sierra]

Do you run this server to look down on others?

[opal sequoia]

No? My time here is spent making it a good place to learn German. I think it shows by my comments here how much I take seriously the fact that all different types of learners need to be considered.

I think looking down on others who are learning is horrible and we don't tolerate it here.

[spark sierra]

I'll take that as an olive branch. But seriously dude, try better.

Its probably best if you don't talk to me. Because as a pattern over the last several months, you are someone who repeatedly feels like you are looking down on me.

Even when I make a silly comment like today's picture, you find a way to make it into a discussion about my "weak points" or "prde", or whatever.

So with all due respect, I don't want that anymore.

I've moderated before, so I get the difficulty of moderating.

And I have great respect for people who run servers and moderate.

[opal sequoia]

I can't really do better if the problem is someone intentionally misunderstanding me. If you take my words as what they are - genuine attempts to be helpful - then that would resolve this conflict you're imagining between us.

[spark sierra]

But your words today are not helpful or cohesive to my learning and are closer to a distraction.

If you don't get it. That's fine.

[opal sequoia]

If you make comments that relate to other people's learning, I will comment if I have something to say.

[magic sandal]

When I took university German for about 2 courses, the first course (it assumed no previous knowledge of German, so A0) had textbook tasks very similar to what you posted. If you go through textbooks on your own, many textbooks might require for the learner to supplement the textbook with other resources to makeup for the lack of teacher guidance.

[cinder juniper]

does anyone else relate to, when listening to quick dialogue, trying to connect the particle at the end of sentences to the trennbare Verben but your brain not clicking quick enough to process it?

when reading it seems much easier as you can look back at the root verb and figure it out, but in speech it feels so much more difficult

[opal sequoia]

Yeah, I think that's quite a common experience. Even without the particle, just having the verbs at the end can be tough.

[cinder juniper]

what do you guys think is the most productive way to read books in german to learn? when reading i would say i know about 60% of the words and must look the rest up in a dictionary

is that too low comprehension for it to be useful?

[fickle pagoda]

I don't know what you read, but the way I pretty much learned Japanese (after getting by grammar to kinda B1-ish level) was that I just started reading. And I looked up about 80%. (Also, because I hate rote memorization, I looked up everything thrice until it stook.) Make of that what you will. But it should be normal to have to look up every 2nd word at the beginning.

(and if you read a novel-length text, it should subside during doing it)

(I may hyperbole a bit, but its just ok to do it, really. Just do it.)

[ember moat]

Wow

I wouldve thought that you need like a higher level to start reading

[fickle pagoda]

you mostly need vocabulary

[ember moat]

I think i got a b1 in german so imma read a light novel or something

Any recommendations

?

[fickle pagoda]

if we had light novels lol

[ember moat]

😢

Lol

A kids book or something

[fickle pagoda]

did you learn (or can you at least understand) relative clauses and infinite-clauses with zu (<- the latter, at least by vibe)?

as a shit-test, I could say, try to get the meaning of famous German songs

(e.g., "99 Luftballons")

[ember moat]

I did but that was a year ago in high school, so im a little rusty

But i think id be able to get back on it real quick

[fickle pagoda]

which is fine for reading

[cinder juniper]

there are light novels

i went to a shop and saw german manga and light novel translations

i know people say read childrens literature but i cant do that because i cant get myself to read something im genuinely not interested in

so i found manga nice

[cinder juniper]

thats reassuring

[spark sierra]

Intensive vs extensive. Intensive reading is fine, it's just exhausting.

Extensive is necessary to feel better lol. (3+ pages in a shorter burst). When you understand more words there is a lot more pleasure from reading.

In both cases, you are learning words. Extensive covers more pages and finds more examples that solidifies the words and grammar you already know.

[cinder juniper]

3 pages lol i think that will take me multiple hours

[spark sierra]

When you get used to it, you should be reading at maybe... half? of your native speed? Maybe faster? I dunno, way faster than you expect, in any case.

But "extensive reading" is when you basically understand most of the words, and don't need many lookups (or any lookups even: as you can start using context clues to guess the meaning).

At least at my level (A1+), its only possible with A1 graded readers. In A2 graded readers, I'm still having to look up some words. I don't think its possible to attempt smooth extensive reading of any native work (even children stories) until later.

But you can try "intensive reading" with basically anything. Just take your time, look up what you must and inch your way towards progress.

[opal sequoia]

What I typically recommend is to think about what your goal is for each reading session. Because there's no "correct way". Your goal determines what's most important to focus on.

For example, if your goal is just to have fun while learning, then pick something you have a high level of comprehension in already and don't worry too much about stopping to question things.

If your goal is to pick up new vocab, have your dictionary on hand and look up all the words you don't know.

If your goal is to develop your grammar and sentence-parsing abilities, you probably want to go slowly and deconstruct a lot of the sentences, and maybe you won't get too far into the story, but that's no problem because it's not the goal of that session.

And your goal can be any combination of these or anything else that you want to work on. Try things out and see what works for you.

For example, one approach could be "I'm going to read and look up every unknown word until I get sick of doing that and then I'll just read normally for a while after that."

[cinder juniper]

this makes sense

and would help with learning more vocab and like set phrases

thing is i know technically that i will be able to read a lower level text like a childrens book much easier, i just cannot bring myself to get through that as easily as struggling with a difficult text

[opal sequoia]

Sure, you don't have to read a children's text. You could also look into stories written for your level.

Or articles.

For example, try out the magazine Deutsch Perfekt.

Here is a free online library: https://www.goethe.de/ins/fi/en/kul/bib/onl.html

[spark sierra]

Café in Berlin might be "easier than a native German Children's text", but it's also 80 pages long and far more material than a child would read.

The longer form graded readers are written for A1 adults who have attention spans for longer form stories, while carefully selecting words and grammar of the A1 level.

[spark sierra]

Nominally Cafe in Berlin is an A1-A2 graded reader, but I did fine at A0+.

[ember moat]

I sollte lesen Momo und cafe in berlin

[bold pelican]

what the hell is a0+ bruh

[bold pelican]

lesen ans Ende

[jovial crow]

i guess it's really an informal one. "pre-a1"?

[bold pelican]

It's the + that's ticking me off

I dont like the sub-subdivisions like A1.1 and 2 but a0+ is really just ridiculous

[spark sierra]

A0+ is shortcut for me saying "studying A1 material, cannot pass A1 test yet".

Which was my level when I completed Cafe in Berlin.

[spark sierra]

Was ist Momo?

[hollow locust]

I’m planning to start learning German and would really appreciate your advice. How did you begin your learning journey? Are there any good English to-German study guides or resources you would recommend?

I’m also considering moving to Germany in the future, so I’d like to understand the situation of the IT industry for non German speakers.Thank you in advance for your help. Take care!

DW Deutsch Lernen/Anki/Easy German on Youtube/#resources

[spark sierra]

There are tons of resources here. But let's start with.... https://learngerman.dw.com/en/nicos-weg/c-36519789

Try to memorize the gender and plural forms of every vocabulary word, because German can be inconsistent with pluralization rules.

IE: it's not sufficient to memorize "Hotel", you must memorize "das Hotel".

As you get stuck on other subjects, feel free to ask around here! I think a lot of early learning is "learning how to learn".

Eventually you find a rhythm that works for you.

Wer hat Momo geschrieben?

Google zeigt viel Bücher, die Momo heißt.

[open brook]

Der Autor ist Michael Ende

[mighty charm]

Hallo

[spark sierra]

OMFG.

[spark sierra]

240 Pages?

Oh wait, that's English edition.

302 Pages ???

[cinder juniper]

yes its a book

[spark sierra]

I've mostly been looking for things less than 100 pages so far.

[lusty yarrow]

Hello chat

Wassup

[willow scaffold]

@shadow glen

[cinder juniper]

dont think they write books that short

[spark sierra]

Café in Berlin is like 80 total pages.

With like 15 of those pages being glossary / exercises / answers.

[bold pelican]

momo isnt a grader reader its a regular german novel

[bold pelican]

Romane solcher Länge gibt es, jedoch werden sie als "Novellen" ("Novellas" auf englisch) eingestufen

[spark sierra]

Is Momo appropriate for A2ish?

Or should I wait till B1ish?

[bold pelican]

kP

When I first started reading books in german I already knew a few thousand words

So yeah that's more B1 level

I read The Neverending Story (500 pages), from the same author, and it took me half a year to get through it, though admittedly, it did make my vocab far richer

[sinful kraken]

I recently read die Welle

might want to check it out

It was relatively easy

Er ist wieder da > Harry Potter > die Welle

sorted by difficulty based on my current reading experience

[sinful kraken]

the general advice is that you should be targeting one level higher so at A2 B1 makes sense

[errant nacelle]

@harsh tulip I recommend continuing here or in a ticket

[harsh tulip]

once again, sorry for the disturbance, I wasn't aware of that and (without too much bootlicking) you admins do a pretty good job here, to keep the server in good condition!

[errant nacelle]

Thank you

[cinder juniper]

ja vielleicht so, ich habe keine Ahnung, aber alle die Bücher die ich habe sind länger als etwa 250 Seiten

[cinder juniper]

im also A2 and tbh i personally dont find any use in restricting yourself to a certain level of text, i mean dont go reading Nietzsche, but progress definitely comes from forcing yourself, when youre at the edge of understanding

at least from my general experience in language learning

personally i enjoy reading, so when i am able to get to the barrier level of actually reading a text that is difficult, but also understanding the narrative even if i dont remember the more complicated vocab, it feels very rewarding to me

i like going through short story collections personally, good length for combination of lack of attention span but also interest in the story

[spark sierra]

Hmmm. My "Hard Reading" right now is Pokemon.

I guess from my perspective, I'm all for harder stuff but only one at a time!

I'll surely get to Momo and some of these other novels eventually. In fact, I must read them to achieve my overall goals.

[cinder juniper]

thats perfectly fine, there is no objective frame of difficulty, only whatever is difficult for you

just have to find content that is on that 'edge' of your personal level

[deft wyvern]

@trail locust i took over two weeks off from my studies so i wanna go back to study what i need to currently and make up for what i missed. current plan is like this

2 hours for my course/arbeit books
1 hour of grammar book drills
1 hour of stuffing in anki the wortschatz and fixed Ausdrücken i need

think this is a good plan or will it overwhelm me fast?

specially since i am not sure if doing grammar after 2 hours of course book stuff will have the same benefit as it would if i started with the grammar book

[trail locust]

Wann benutzt du eigentlich die Sprache, statt nur Grammatik/Wortschatz zu lernen?

Gibt's andere Dinge außerhalb dieses Plans, die du machen wirst, um die Sprache zu benutzen?

Ich glaube, Deutsch in Videospielen/Podcasts/Fernsehsendungen/Filmen etc zu benutzen wäre weniger anstrengend und würde mehr Spaß machen, damit du dich nicht überstrapazierst.

Vielleicht könntest du dir zwischen der Grammatik- und Wortschatzaufgaben etwas auf Deutsch anschauen. Dann hat dein Gehirn ein bisschen Zeit zur Verarbeitung.

Oh, well. I mean that is the translation from 1949.

[hasty socket]

ach...

meine Überraschung ist ein bisschen wenig über...

[deft wyvern]

Ich verstehe was du meinst, aber mein Hauptziel ist noch die Prüfung zu bestehen, und das bedeutet, dass ich perfekt grammar haben soll. Mit gutem Grammatik and genugem wortschatz kann man einen guten Notizen kriegen.
Ich denke wirklich, dass ich meine deutschen Fähigkeiten verbessern kann, nur wenn ich wirklich in Deutschland bin.

ich kann fast körperlich zur Sprache einen Mauer spüren

[deft wyvern]

( i mean to say i can almost physically feel a wall regarding the language, perhaps i should've used hinsichtlich)

[trail locust]

Perfekte Grammatik

Mit guter Grammatik und einem ausreichenden Wortschatz

eine gute Note (Notiz = note like something written down, Note = grade)

eine Mauer

Vielleicht wäre es gut, Deutsch zu schreiben und korrigiert zu werden, z.B. auf r/WriteStreakGerman oder hier?

Guck Mal diese Biene da.

I saw "mal" in every German exercise in one day accidentally. It showed up in Pokemon, the children song I was studying (the bee song above lol), and my graded reader all at the same time.

[grave scarab]

Yeah, I just what I’m getting at. It’s very careful how you say it, but it can sometimes make the sentence politer or more urgent.

I think I should avoid it for now until I know more German

For reals 😹🤧

[unreal summit]

ich kann gut Englisch sprechen , aber Deutsch ist ein bisschen

[jovial crow]

yeah. ich kann nicht sehr gut Deutsch. haha

[unreal summit]

yeah , because some words in German have artikel

but english doesn't

[unreal summit]

i mean 100% of german words

der , die , das

[jovial crow]

which level are you? A1 or A2?

[west spoke]

Do you get!!

[unreal summit]

ein bisschen lol

sometimes i use wrong artikel of some of the german words

[west spoke]

Same here.

But with time you get it right

[unreal summit]

but most of the words in German borrowed english words so i can remember it

[unreal summit]

yeah

gift in English is a present but gift in German is like a poison lol . before knowing that , i only knew gift in german was like gift in english lol

[odd hemlock]

wait till you learn about "umfahren" and "umfahren" xd

[west spoke]

What does it mean btw?

[jovial crow]

there are two different meanings but one same word. haha.

[west spoke]

Their meaning depends on the context

[unreal summit]

for example kirche and kirsche lol

i made mistakes

about two these words

[jovial crow]

no worries

[unreal summit]

wrong spelling is dangerous

not only german but also english

[ornate finch]

umfahren “ich fahre um“ to run over something/someone

umfahren „ich umfahre“ to drive around something/someone

difference is in one being separable while the other isn’t

in spoken language you’d put extra emphasis on different syllables

Hallo

[thorny moat]

Basically as a beginner i purchased a self learning course from goethe from like 100 euros and it was shit so I kinda wish now that someone would explain me how Deutsche welle works and how to use it properly

[sour idol]

I see.

[thorny moat]

I have explained many others how to learn for free

I just send the same voicenote lol doesn't hurt haha

So to answer ur question

I'll just tell them to use Deutsche welle if u are planning to study for free and if u can afford it then try to attend classes

Supply = Angebot
Demand = Nachfrage

[trail locust]

Wie gesagt, ich rede nicht mit einem Muttersprachler, sondern mit einem Deutschlerner. Sogar das hilft.

Hallo was geht ab

[trail locust]

When you're saying how you're doing, you say, "Mir geht's X"

For example: Mir geht's gut

Ich bin brilliant = i am brilliant (as in, I am smart)
