Yeah, the website I read said all German rivers (aside from one or two exceptions) are die and all non-German rivers (aside from a couple of exceptions) are der.

i thought you were going to give us the secret to learning
hot cloak
lol
me too, more secrets to learning pls
all german ships are female except the Bismarck
hot cloak
idk i'm just reading all about genders, apparently the bismarck is referred to as he
opal sequoia
One tip for learning: getting really upset about something going wrong will only hold you back. It's more productive to have a calm (but passionate) attitude to learning. Mistakes are good. You should be happy about them.
runic rain
We dont make mistakes lennard. We make haply little accidents
hot cloak
I like to stress associations but I don't know if that works for everyone.
fair iron
@opal sequoia Der Rhein is masculine because of the name's etymology. Rhein comes from the old German Reinos, meaning großer Fluss. Der Fluss ---> Der Rhein

hot cloak
lol, i love it
runic rain
Love it
fair iron
@opal sequoia If you're unsure, assume the German river is feminine.
Else:
Der Rhein / Mein / Inn / Neckar / Eisack / Lech / Regen
(All of the rivers I listed were thought of in historic times as the representation of male gods, hence the gender)
runic rain
Its Officer Bear
opal sequoia
Ohh.
I will never remember that, Casca, but it's really interesting to know.
I guess it's fine not to know German rivers.
runic rain
I should set it as my avatar...
opal sequoia
I don't think I'll ever ever ever have to talk about them.
hot cloak
phountixbär
is watching stuff in german with german subtitles ever helpful?
i do it a lot but i barely understand it, i can pick out words I know like Kuh
opal sequoia
Yeah, definitely.
It might seem like you understand nothing but your brain is learning to process it.
hot cloak
i guess it's like a baby watching the tv, they don't get it but they're learning somehow right
opal sequoia
It just has to go through the process a bunch of times to gradually pick out the differences, if that makes sense.
hot cloak
babies are so smart 🤔
runic rain
There we go
hot cloak
lol, nice
yeah it does make sense, i'm starting to be able to figure out the words even if i don't know their meaning
before it just all sounded like a bunch of noise
hot cloak
they are incredibly weird
runic rain
They are
hot cloak
i didnt know people actually could think directly in another language
i always thought people were translating as they spoke
that blew my mind
hushed bough
yeah
fair iron
There comes a point when you can speak one language whilst simultaneously thinking in another ^^
hushed bough
that's partly why I'm learning
hot cloak
like, me trying to imagine what it would be like to think/understand in another language without translating to english is like trying to imagine how i would control a third arm
hushed bough
it'S a completely different mode of expression
opal sequoia
Hmm, it can be hard to imagine, but you can compare it to learning new vocabulary in your native language.
hushed bough
yeah
opal sequoia
Like sometimes you learn a new phrase or word, and it becomes a part of your everyday speech.
And you never even think about it!
runic rain

hot cloak

you have different vocabularies for different things, and you talk about certain concepts very differently based on the people you're around, etc.
hot cloak
that's definitely true
hushed bough
i.e the way I talk about technical things at work vs with my family
hot cloak
i don't tell my family i work in tech or they'd just make me fix their computers

Willkommen im besseren channel
hot cloak
fuck nvm
ich bin dumm
Woo
i think bist is for actually being something
like its not a replacement for "are you" in english
shy arrow
Is it?
hot cloak
Yes
shy arrow
Huh.
hot cloak
well, i'm explaining it badly
shy arrow
No, that makes sense.
hot cloak
When you address someone you say bist
opal sequoia
Yeah, it can be confusing, but when you have another main verb, you don't add in the bin/bist/ist whatever verb
Because that is the main verb then.
😛
runic rain
Remeber, i love you all
fair iron
bist = du bist (conjugation of to be, second person singular, present tense)
hot cloak
yeah that
quasi merlin
There is no progressive aspect baked into tenses in German.
runic rain
Good night, good fight
hot cloak
👋🏻 🍉
fair iron
👋
shy arrow
night!
opal sequoia
Nacht!!
shy arrow
So would I need to say du bist then ever?
Or just say bist?
Or are you talking about when there is a second verb
hot cloak
second verb
well "are you" vs "you are"
isnt it or no
i bet im making no sense 🤦
fuck
opal sequoia
When you say something like... "You are eating" or "you are walking", you don't use "bist". But if you were to say "you are tall" or "you are my friend" you say "du bist".
quasi merlin
Bist du hier?
shy arrow
So describing an action no bist
hot cloak
Meinst du "hier"?
shy arrow
describing a trait bist
hot cloak
yeah
shy arrow
Fuckin sweet
shy arrow
nick is my hommie
hot cloak
i found myself doing that too, like - trying to translate "Are you going to bed" word for word
opal sequoia
Yeah, basically something like that. It's because in English we say "are eating" with both words, but in German those both together are just one word "isst".
hot cloak
so i was like, ok i have to have "have" so bist, and going so gehen
but nope 🤐
yeah base explains it way better 👌🏻
opal sequoia
Danke.
hot cloak
i wish there was a vorlesestunde every day, i found it really helpful
shy arrow
if you write it down you will remember it as they say in German
opal sequoia
Everyone learns differently and one of the ways that I learn is by explaining stuff to other people, so if I seem like I explain stuff a lot, that's why.
hot cloak
yeah my desk is covered in flashcards with german nouns written on them
I wish I could just fucking communicate
lol
opal sequoia
That's another tip for learning and remembering stuff too. You need to find the ways that you learn best and make use of them.
shy arrow
just dont get discouraged and crack on
opal sequoia
Yep, that too.
hot cloak
i never know what my best method of learning is
there's an internet quiz for what gilmore girl i am but not for the best way to learn things
Idk because its been 4 months and no improvement
is that right? :/
Idk if you guys have seen improvement but I havent
opal sequoia
Haha, yes, Bär.
hot cloak
in me
shy arrow
havent been here long enough or talked to you in german tbh
shy arrow
Here?...
hot cloak
lol that's so messed up if people are mocking you
Mostly other places but sometimes here
shy arrow
I've never had someone do that here, personally.
hot cloak
learning a language is such a respectable effort
shy arrow
I'd just find people that want to speak and speak with those cool people.
You'll learn off each other.
hot cloak
Idk, its embarrassing
yeah i have a few german friends i play overwatch with, and my german is terrible but we just laugh and learn
I speak near perfect and I have to explain that I can't write well and my circumstance is very strange and quite rare
and I learn different than others since I spoke it as a child but never wrote it
fair iron
If someone is mocking you (or anyone, for that matter), feel free to send me or one of the mods a PM.
hot cloak
I meant on another site not here
shy arrow
Fucking hardcore tactical
hot cloak
People just switch to English here haha
The mocking was not on discord
if you're in Nur Deutsch they're not allowed to 👀
😉
fair iron
Well, if it does ever occur, feel free ^^
hot cloak
Ugh why did public school make me speak English
yeah also @shy arrow if you like those lets play videos on youtube
shy arrow
Yeah!
hot cloak
i find its helpful to find one in german with subtitles about a game you're into
hot cloak
Thats why i forgot german because nobody here fucking speaks it
shy arrow
Here?
hot cloak
I dont game 😮
like i found an entire series of the long dark in german with written subtitles
shy arrow
It's german learning lol.
hot cloak
No in my small secluded town where I grew up
shy arrow
That's awesome, lol.
Ooh.
Well, I'd just learn from the internet.
And here.
I live in Ohio and the only people who speak it here are Amish.
And half of them speak Dutch.
hot cloak
haha oh yeah! i was watching breaking amish last week
and i was like, wtf these guys are speaking german
in pennsylvania
shy arrow
^^^^
hot cloak
maybe i'll go be amish for a few months, churn some butter, learn some german
can't be that bad
opal sequoia
I've been watching some German LPers lately too.
hot cloak
any good ones?
opal sequoia
I've been watching Gerugon and Gronkh and I like them both.
hot cloak
ahh i was watching gronkh's horizon zero dawn series
opal sequoia
Oooh.
hot cloak
he talks so fast
hot cloak
we get a lot of german tourists in london and when i'm walking around i hear them a lot and try to understand
but they talk so fast 😱
opal sequoia
Haha.
hot cloak
@shy arrow are you using duolingo?
hot cloak

opal sequoia
So far I watched his The Uncertain videos and they're pretty slow and clear if you want to try those.
hot cloak
ooh yeah i'll take a look
opal sequoia
And now I've been watching Outlast 2 and it's pretty funny to watch a jumpscare game while trying to learn.
shy arrow
I've heard though don't rely entirely on it.
Like,
Use what you learn from there and come on here and learn more basically.
At least that's what I do.
hot cloak
yeah exactly
shy arrow
Ja genau
hot cloak
i really like duo, it helps me a lot but you have to be ready to go and research concepts yourself
hot cloak
but duo has so much discussion too, if you get something wrong you hit a button to see people explaining it and stuff
i'm only half way through it but i'm a big fan
hushed bough
this is how I use it
by itself it's only good for vocab
but I use it as a branching off point for learning other things. I've also gone through the tree really slowly to focus on retaining as much as possible

Es was mir ein Vergnügen, mit dir zu sprechen.

meinst du "war"?
hushed bough
dein Leben?
hushed bough
in Ich habe über das leben gesprochen?
hushed bough
Aber über nimmt Dativ?
quasi merlin
Beides, Akkusativ oder Dativ
hushed bough
Warum Akkusativ in diesem Satz? Is this one of those "movement" cases?
quasi merlin
*Akkusativ
And I don't really think it has something to do with "movement" here.
It's just über etw. [Akk.] reden/sprechen
A movement-über would be like:
Ich gehe über die Straße.
hushed bough
ja
so it's just one of those things to know
Language learning: a bunch of patterns with tons of exceptions to said patterns 😄
quasi merlin
I think, the movement-location-thing is like more for either stating a position with sein, for example, (or where an action takes place, like "Ich laufe im Haus herum") or a movement with a motion verb.
And then there are verbs that (can) have a preposition going with them that demand a certain case just because ¯_(ツ)_/¯
^ For Wechselpräpositionen
Prepositions that can only take one case anyway will always take that case.

Jut(e) Nacht ist Berliner Dialekt, glaube ich
lilac dew
Ja
still hazel
ok
lilac dew
Aber es't sehr unbekannt
shy bobcat
Auf Berlinerisch wird »g« am Anfang des Wortes zu »j«
shy bobcat
nein, viele Dialekte machen so
lilac dew
eh?
shy bobcat
z.B. Kölsch auch. Frag Nemoses.
lilac dew
nicht wirklich
still hazel
but it also said like (in the lyrics) "na ik wees..."
shy bobcat
Das ist auch Berlinerisch
lilac dew
mmhmmmmm
lilac dew
Der Sänger ist ein Berliner
shy bobcat
Auf Berlinerisch werden manche »ei« zu »ee«
still hazel
so they speak a different language in Berlin??
lilac dew
A very local one
still hazel
ok
shy bobcat
So for example “Ich bin ein kleines Mädchen” is “Ick bin een kleenet Mädchen” in Berlinerisch.
still hazel
ok! very strange
shy bobcat
But, some EIs don’t turn to EEs. Like the one in »Eis« (which just stays »Eis« in Berlinerisch)
It’s to do with etymology, very fun stuff
lilac dew
hmm?
I mean
Not specifically etymology
yes and no
It's just kinda how the language developed over time
In different places the 'pure' wasl ike
shy bobcat
yeah it really is to do with what the original Middle High German sound was
still hazel
what are those signs you're using for quotes? i thought they used one upside-down quotation mark and one normal one... those are like the French quote marks...
lilac dew
which ones?
shy bobcat
Germans use French quotes also
lilac dew
"
shy bobcat
»«
lilac dew
yeah that
lilac dew
I see that more than I see the french ones
actually
I don't see the french ones at all
??
still hazel
but in French it's «bonjour», not »bonjour«
still hazel
yeah really confusing
shy bobcat
if EI was originally í then it stays EI in Berlinerisch. (These words usually have a long I sound in English: Eis = ice). If EI was originally AI then it becomes EE in Berlinerisch (these words usually have a “oa” or “ea” sound in English: klein/kleen = clean, Stein/Steen = stone)
shy bobcat
« bonjour »

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Guillemet
It says inverted guillemets are used in German
Anyway I’ve seen guillemets used in German.
shy bobcat
They say you don’t handwrite guillemets in German
lilac dew
probably not
still hazel
shy bobcat
(except in Switzerland; for printed matters, „...“ is used in handwriting)
What this means to me is: if you’re typing and not Swiss, use »«, otherwise the other kind
Anyway guillemets are easier for me to type than the other kind on this layout
lilac dew
don't be rude

I don't know how much these issues depend on application vs. browser

i'm guessing quite a bit
i've found the browser version basically unusable but i'm a macOS user that doesn't use a "standard" browser either, so i just dl'd the full application :\

Swedish is a Germanic language so it should be able to help you with German

Ok
Yes true
So is english tho
But in school I was forced to speak fucking english so I forgot my german
quasi merlin
Yeah, but English is more special
quasi merlin
I mean more special in regards to that it might seem more different than other Germanic languages
hot cloak
Studies have shown that people who learn English often forget their first language
it'll start coming back faster than when you first learn it
Sad....
But English was my first, I just learned German as a child alongside since my mom helped me
quasi merlin
Riot's here to not forget English :p
hot cloak
the same happened to my grandmother but she never tried to re-learn her native language
Idk tho
just lost to the ages
Idk what was my first
(i say the dumbest shit to my parents now thanks to german)
I just wish I was brought up in one culture so this wouldn't be so damn confusing
Ugh i hate being bicultural
I spoke German as a young child and I forgot most of it because school enforced only English
ME
AF
^
Exact same issue I had
I know more Spanish than German now
I had to get speech therapy in primary school because I couldnt say the English R at the end of words
😢
I still have trouble with "w"
And they forced me to get rid of my speech impediment/accent/whatever I had
That's fucked up
Because racist americans here dont fucking want me
speaking german
They think im a nazi
Everyone looks at you when WW2 is mentioned
I know
That happens to me when I was in school
Happend
and I just hate myself for it, Germans hate me because I am too american. Americans hate me because Im too german
I beat myself up every day because I dont culturally fit in in either
For real
I was asked to go home and speak english by a man on the bus and I told him this is my home
America has no national language iirc

That's funny
Because I think the overly Italian Americans are the biggest morons out there :D

I speak Spanish from Spain

dry lynx
tbh, seems better than sitting behind
well, I'm off to take a shower and get ready for tomorrow, if some1 needs me, ping
fair iron
I'd rather be in the back than the middle, to be honest. Even behind the speakers might be better.

lavish saddle
it does...?
viscid fiber
Do you mean a futur tense conjugation?
jaunty vine
Which natural languages has that?
lilac dew
French does
but no english has
a past
and a non past
based on normal verb construction
technically
the perfect isn't even a past tense
because you use an adjective
viscid fiber
You WHAT
lilac dew
participles = verbs acting as adjectives
when you use the perfect tense, you're saying you have the quality of whatever past participle you're using
viscid fiber
Oh I see
lilac dew
which makes it the past tense
viscid fiber
Define tense
lilac dew
time at which an action takes place
viscid fiber
Bc it seems weird to say that it isn't a "tense" to me
quasi merlin
Most Germanic languages have 2 morphological tenses.
lilac dew
^
quasi merlin
The other tenses are covered by compound constructions with auxiliaries.
Who needs future tense anyway, just use "present" :p
fair iron
So long as you don't say If we was <xyz>, you're fine 👍
viscid fiber
Aka: don't live in the south ^
quasi merlin
People say "if we was"?

@quasi merlin They do. They also say We could of one that v_v
viscid fiber
WHAT
quasi merlin
How do "could" and "of" fit together?
viscid fiber
Could have
Could've
Could of
Some ppl think it's could of
And it's the worst thing
We could of won the game
fair iron
@quasi merlin People pronounce Would've not as would have, but as would of
And it hurts
pine ginkgo
Like people who say 'could care less'!
viscid fiber
But could of?
hot cloak

opal sequoia
Is that actually incorrect though?
fair iron
Y'alldn't've any idea how bad this hurts.(This actually works though, and I love it)
viscid fiber

pine ginkgo
You can't have another thing if the there's no first thing
viscid fiber
Maybe if ENGLAND didn't do this to US
fair iron
🤔
opal sequoia
You can, because it's implied.
viscid fiber
We should have made our own language
quasi merlin
"Aww, these foreign languages have soo many consonants, how do you pronounce that?"
...
Y'alldn't've
viscid fiber
LOL
opal sequoia
In writing, perhaps not. But if someone is speaking, I think it's allowable to exclude the "on the one hand" introduction.
fair iron
I believe there are two other possibe triple contractions.
hot cloak
mfw i've probably said y'all'dn't've 🤔
fair iron
I actively try to say y'alldn't've.
viscid fiber

viscid fiber

How do you skip the x
hot cloak
eventually the x gets dropped
viscid fiber
Because American English
opal sequoia
Oh man, yeah, fixing in the sense of preparing food always throws me off when I hear it.
viscid fiber
That's how
pine ginkgo
The x is like its most important feature 
hot cloak
to you
viscid fiber
You need some more American exposure
pine ginkgo
