i mean i take it that it makes sense

if we had a better explanation :D

otherwise this is confusing as hell for learners

or for proper grammar

maybe eh?

[pine ginkgo]

meh

i am lazy

not gonna click links

[tribal warren]

okay then

Gotta study history now

good luck with porch of geese

[viscid cape]

Hello dutch rapper

[viscid cape]

I love the way there's classical and modern architecture side by side

[opal sequoia]

Yes. Those 3 buildings are all next to each other.

This is a better pic of the 3rd.

[viscid cape]

very neato building

[viscid cape]

ehm

that doesn't look comforting to me

:v

way too much maths

[opal sequoia]

😄

Now I wait for my class.

[ancient spade]

Oooh that looks really nice

[opal sequoia]

Which?

[ancient spade]

Well, all the pictures you've sent. But I like the old architecture the best

:smile:

[opal sequoia]

Oh.

:sun_with_face:

[wintry thistle]

Despite Arrem being called the meme lord, I have never seen a single meme from the person

[pine ginkgo]

because people need a meme scapegoat

and they chose arrem

[sudden panther]

Can confirm, I'm completely serious at all times and would never meme. I'm just a victim. 😦

[placid heath]

Lies = Seil backwards

[shy bobcat]

Arrem isn’t a meme lord, Arrem’s just a meme

[placid heath]

Texas Teeeisen! :D

[shy bobcat]

Texas? 😦

[placid heath]

Oh, my bad.

New Mexico Teeeisen!

[shy bobcat]

Close enough 😅

[placid heath]

¯_(ツ)_/¯

[placid heath]

Alternatively:

[ocean robin]

oh god

[sudden panther]

dwhat?

Yes. So. Pick one of the exercises and solve it.

[ocean robin]

So let's do the first one, shall we?

[sudden panther]

I'd prefer the second one, but okay.

[ocean robin]

Lol I can't do the second one. 🤔

You really can simplify that thingo?

[sudden panther]

Fokkenell Flops.

Do what you did yesterday.

But with less mistakes.

It's the exact same exercise. I copied it from the pic you posted.

[ocean robin]

Yah okay.

I hope I won't do the same mistakes as I did tommorow. 🤔

[ancient spade]

What did you do tomorrow?

[pine ginkgo]

wtf macaco

[ancient spade]

:kappa:

[pine ginkgo]

are you a time traveller

:D

with flops

are you both time travellers

[ancient spade]

No, I just wanna know her time traveling experiences

Hahaha

[placid heath]

Guys quick

What year is it?

[pine ginkgo]

2139

[placid heath]

IT WORKED 🎆

[sudden panther]

Nah. 2139 would look different. https://i.imgur.com/jIK3pH2.png

[ocean robin]

So (7x + 5)(3x + 4) (3x -4) (5+7x) (5+7x) (3x + 4)(3x -4) And knowing the law that (a+b)(a-b) = a^2 - b^2, (7x + 5) + 9x2 + 16.

That quite looks like yesterday's exercise, doesn't it? 🤔

[pine ginkgo]

uhm

what happened

from the first

to the second line

[sudden panther]

That's almost exactly what you wrote yesterday.

[pine ginkgo]

can you also elaborate on what you did each step

[sudden panther]

Explain why.

[ocean robin]

Yeah, thought I made the same mistake.

Because (7x+5) is the common factor here right? 🤔

[pine ginkgo]

can you explain in more detail

what you did in the first step

[ocean robin]

In more detail? I have no idea how to explain that...

[sudden panther]

Well (7x+5) isn't a factor here. It's a multiplicand, like all of them.

[ocean robin]

Wait what 🤔

[sudden panther]

What you wrote is about the same as writing that 3 * 2 * 5 * 3 = 3 * 2 * 5 because 3 is a common factor. It's not.

[ocean robin]

Ah.

[sudden panther]

In 3 * 2 + 3 * 5, three is a common factor and the expression can be rewritten as 3 (2 + 5). But here, it's all just multiplication.

[ocean robin]

I see, I am okay with simplification with numbers but not with numbers and x'es in parentheses. 🤔

[sudden panther]

Unknowns are just numbers in disguise. 😛

[pine ginkgo]

^

[ocean robin]

Yeah, that was the word I was searching for

[pine ginkgo]

if it's 5 or if it's 5x has... basically no consequence on how you handle them

at least until some years later for you

[ocean robin]

But even so, I have a hard time with them, I just don't know why 🤔

[sudden panther]

Lack of practice.

And not looking at your notes.

[ocean robin]

I mean, I can do equations fine, but I can't do this. And still. I can do equations with only 1 unknown number.

[pine ginkgo]

just because you can do one thing

doesn't mean you can do another

using already existing knowledge helps in learning new stuff

but does not equate into being able to put it into practice without more learning

[sudden panther]

^

Math is all about practice.

[ocean robin]

Mmh, I think I should do a math practice everyday from now on.

[pine ginkgo]

honestly

you should practice until you are at least 100% sure

[sudden panther]

So. Keeping in mind that it's all multiplication and that

[ocean robin]

🤔

100% sure about what?

[sudden panther]

latex (a-b)(a+b) = a^2\underline{\mathb{-}} b^2

[viral thunder]

Rendering Latex failed. See help if you think this is a mistake.

[sudden panther]

try again.

fuck off

[ocean robin]

oh lol

Don't tell me it's a symbol error again ;u;

[sudden panther]

Oh I can't type.

[sudden panther]

^keep that in mind and try again

[ocean robin]

Seems like it.

fakk off symbols

[sudden panther]

That should do it.

[ocean robin]

Lol okay.

[ocean robin]

Yeah I understood Arrem, at least I think. 🤔

[sudden panther]

Good.

[ocean robin]

Stop spamming the poor bot.

a^2 + b^2

[sudden panther]

No. Bad Floop. No +s allowed.

[ocean robin]

What 🤔

Wait whaaaat? How can I do then?

[sudden panther]

Flops.

What's the difference between

[ocean robin]

Yes.

[sudden panther]

and

[sudden panther]

^those two

[ocean robin]

Well that just means that b^2 is positive in the first one and negative in the second 🤔

[placid heath]

b^2 is always positive

[sudden panther]

Yes, kinda. And that's what your formula says. It's a^2 - b^2 in your formula. Not a^2+b^2.

Don't confuse her even more Korea. 😅

[placid heath]

k. [font-size=small]Ruckzuckhieb[/font-size]

[sudden panther]

So. Keeping in mind. That it's. a^2 - b^2 instead of a^2 + b^2. Let's try again.

[ocean robin]

Huh? Huh?

[pine ginkgo]

mhhh

[ocean robin]

Wait I don't understand anymore. You just said that a^2 - b^2 was wrong. 🤔

[sudden panther]

Dear lord.

Aha. I see the problem here. Maybe.

[ocean robin]

Yeah Arrem, I am sorry but I am super confused here.

[sudden panther]

Didn't know Entons could use confusion on themselves.

[ocean robin]

facepalms

[placid heath]

If they're confused they hurt themselves.

Es hat sich vor Verwirrung selbst verletzt!

[sudden panther]

fuck

meh close enough whatever

Anyway, identify the a and the b in the expression on top.

[ocean robin]

a = 3x / b = 4

[sudden panther]

Okay.

So what's a^2-b^2?

[ocean robin]

(3x × 3x) - (4 × 4)? In detailed reasoning.

[sudden panther]

Wow. We get detailed reasoning too now. Wonderful. Okay. Now evaluate that.

[ocean robin]

But it still goes to 9x^2 - 16, doesn't it? 🤔

Or wait.

[sudden panther]

It sure as memes does.

So how in the name of memes and all that is holy did you get 9x^2 + 16 when you did it up there? 😛

[ocean robin]

uuuuh

[placid heath]

🍷 🍾 🍻 🍺

[sudden panther]

Alright. Part two.

[ocean robin]

Oh okay.

[pine ginkgo]

isn't this part two

and we skipped part 1?

🤔

[ocean robin]

idk solet

[sudden panther]

simpify, yes

[ocean robin]

Great typo.

(7x+5) 9x^2 - 16? 🤔

[sudden panther]

So that would be

lates \left[(7x+5) \cdot 9x^2\right] - 16

sadfjiosšfgjsiošhgsgj

[ocean robin]

[pine ginkgo]

lol

[ocean robin]

Yeeeeeah.

[sudden panther]

I seriously need to stop hanging out with Floop. It's affecting me.

[ocean robin]

😦

[sudden panther]

Well I'm preeeeeeety sure that's wrong.

Or at least not what you meant.

[ocean robin]

oh shiet

🤔

[sudden panther]

Multiplication. Gets done. Before addition.

If you want to change that. Use parentheses.

[ocean robin]

What do you mean with "simplify" anyway? Do I develop all the thingy first and then I calculate?

[sudden panther]

I mean simplify the expression. You can't do any calculating if you don't have any numbers.

So

[ocean robin]

Like having a common factor and stuff? Yeah got it.

[pine ginkgo]

flops

[ocean robin]

AH.

[sudden panther]

Those two. Are not the same thing. Which one of them is correct?

[pine ginkgo]

take x = 1

and calculate the right side of what arrem wrote

[ocean robin]

mmmh

(7 × 1 + 5) × (9 × 1^2 - 16) 12 + 9 - 16 = 5.

[pine ginkgo]

--- wat

[ocean robin]

🤔

[pine ginkgo]

can you ignore what you wrote above

[ocean robin]

I just flop hard today.

[pine ginkgo]

and calculate it again

[ocean robin]

Huh? Okay then.

[pine ginkgo]

please do it slowly and carefully, flops

[sudden panther]

Anyway, I'd seriously recommend watching all of these https://www.khanacademy.org/math/algebra/polynomial-factorization and doing the related exercises.

Also what you can do to exercise is type <expression before your changes> = <expression after your changes> into Wolfram Alpha to check if you're correct.

http://www.wolframalpha.com/input/?i=(7x%2B5)(3x-4)(3x%2B4)%3D(7x%2B5)9x^2-16

If you mess up, you'll get something like https://i.imgur.com/Kj6ViiK.png which is Wolfram's way of saying "err, those are two different functions you git"

[tribal warren]

Wolfram

😄

❤

[sudden panther]

If you don't you'll get something like this https://i.imgur.com/tRMx9yw.png

[tribal warren]

I think she left

[sudden panther]

As usual.

[ocean robin]

I flopped and will flop again

[pine ginkgo]

okay i want this though

(7 × 1 + 5) × (9 × 1^2 - 16)
12 + 9 - 16
= 5.

do you spot your mistake, flops?

it's... a simple one

[ocean robin]

🤔

oh lel

[ancient spade]

Lol you're still doing this?

:speak_no_evil:

[ocean robin]

12 × (9-16)
12 × -7

• 84
  🤔

[sudden panther]

Flops likes to take her time. 😛

[ancient spade]

I see

Keep going Floppo, you can do this

[sudden panther]

Alright fair enough Flops. Now take 5 minutes and read over the stuff I said above. Check out those links.

As an exercise simplify (7x+5)(3x-4)(3x+4)(5+7x) again, using Wolfram alpha after every step you do to make sure that everything is correct. If you're not sure why something is wrong, feel free to ask.

[ocean robin]

🎉

[sudden panther]

Good Flopperdoodle.

[ocean robin]

Woooo.

[sudden panther]

**As an exercise simplify (7x+5)(3x-4)(3x+4)(5+7x) again, using Wolfram alpha after every step you do to make sure that everything is correct. If you're not sure why something is wrong, feel free to ask.

[celest robin]

aja @sudden panther hast du gewusst, wir dürfen für die Matura Geogebra verwenden :P

(bin jetzt nur draufgekommen weil ihr über Mathe geredet habt)

[sudden panther]

Solve equations, graph functions, create constructions, analyze data, explore 3D math!
🤔

Echt?

[celest robin]

yup

theoretisch muss ich nichtmal wissen können wie man Funktionen integriert oder ableitet, ich muss es einfach in Geogebra eingeben xD

[pine ginkgo]

wtf ist geobra

[placid heath]

Geogebra ist matlab für noobs

[pine ginkgo]

lel

[placid heath]

is aber echt nett

besser als wolframalpha

[celest robin]

ich denke es ist dafür gedacht, damit man nicht ganze Rechenaufgabe wegen einem einzelnen Rechenfehler versaut. Aber das Problem seh ich darin, dass man dadurch nicht mal verstehen muss wie es überhaupt funktioniert, sondern man einfach nur lernen muss wie mans in geogebra macht

[placid heath]

weil der scheiß verlangt für jeden kack die pro-mitgliedschaft

[celest robin]

also ka, bin dem irgendwie ein bisschen skeptisch gegenüber, aber solange es dadurch leichter wird beschwert ich nicht nicht :P

[pine ginkgo]

gleiche argumentation wie damals mit den taschenrechern

:D

[celest robin]

najaa

das ist schon was anderes

[pine ginkgo]

ja

aber gleiche argumentation

:D

[celest robin]

du musst ja trotzdem wissen was du machen musst um z.B. eine Funktion zu integrieren

Taschenrechner machens halt ein bisschen leichter, damit man nicht nur kopfrechnen muss. Aber verstehen was du machst musst du trotzdem. Bei Geogebra sehe ich das ein bisschen anders tbh :d

[sudden panther]

weil der scheiß verlangt für jeden kack die pro-mitgliedschaft

[pine ginkgo]

ich sag ja nicht, dass das die gleiche sachlage ist

nur die gleiche argumentation

[placid heath]

Also ein CAS kann auch ohne Wissen integrieren.

Arrem, how would work with an online service w/ auth? :P

[sudden panther]

It wouldn't. You pirate the mobile app. 😛

[placid heath]

Ah. my ipad is probably too old for that thing tho.

[sudden panther]

Aw. 😦

[placid heath]

the last ios update was like 8?

idk

[quasi merlin]

Arrem, how would work with an online service w/ auth?

You fake the auth server

[placid heath]

how would I convince wolframalpha to connect to the spoofed server?

[sudden panther]

Get a job at wolframalpha.

[placid heath]

🤦🏻

I should just keep using python as my calculator

[sudden panther]

Or maybe just ask nicely. 🤔

[celest robin]

@pine ginkgo hab schon verstanden was du meinst, wollts nur mal gesagt haben :d

[pine ginkgo]

:P

[grave vessel]

Hello

[quasi merlin]

If it connects by domain the hosts file should be enough to connect to the spoofed server.

[placid heath]

It is a web service tho

I have no control over it.

[quasi merlin]

Oh

[pine ginkgo]

mhh

rip exercises

and translations

never to be solved

[sudden panther]

As we expected.

[ocean robin]

I am sorry, I was like real busy on my job experience that I had to plan. Now I am off to sleep because I am waaaay too tired to do math.

[fair iron]

Where are you thinking of doing your work experience, Flappy?

[ocean robin]

In an hospital. I have loved the one I did in a vet clinic so why not. 🤔

[pine ginkgo]

sleepy flops

[fair iron]

Ooh, nice! I hope you enjoy it. ^^

Now get some rest, Flappy.

Dors bien.

[ocean robin]

See you all tommorow. And even, see you all on Saturday since tommorow I will be very busy to take the train to Paris and get all my stuff done.

[sudden panther]

New plan: we take all the trains to Paris and redirect them to Vienna.

[ocean robin]

👀

Hallo, hey, wie geht's

[uncut ember]

thx

can we start

[fair iron]

1. The old man wanted to play tennis.
2. The boy eats his vegetables.
3. Tim had to play the piano in school.

[uncut ember]

Der alte mann mochte tennis gespielen

something like that?

[slender rain]

Can I join/what is this? Sorry for interrupting.

[uncut ember]

practicing verb conj

[fair iron]

Of course you can join. ^^

[uncut ember]

Der Junge essen seiner Gemusen

I know seiner is a really antiquated

I dont know the current term

for it

[fair iron]

seiner isn't antiquated, it's just a different case.

[uncut ember]

what is the right case

should i use

[fair iron]

sein would be the correct term.

[uncut ember]

ok

and the last one

[fair iron]

1. wanted to would use wollte, not möchte. Furthermore, möchte is present tense, not past tense.

[uncut ember]

ok

what is mochte

I want

?

[fair iron]

Yep. Or I would like.

[uncut ember]

And the last one

I have no idea

[shy bobcat]

mochte ≠ möchte tho

👀

[fair iron]

Tim musste in der Schule das Klavier spielen.

[slender rain]

Yeah not ideal about had

So it is force?

[uncut ember]

I didnt know whether i had to use a muss conj. or not

@shy bobcat ye i know about the umlauts dont have a german keyboard sry

I can use dipthongs

[shy bobcat]

moechte, then

[uncut ember]

ok

@fair iron some more?

Using different pronouns than just third person sing and first person sing

[fair iron]

Sure, I'll just post the answers first.

[shy bobcat]

mochte would be the simple past of mögen, möchte is the konj ii 😄

[uncut ember]

: ) very useful information

thanks

I got a book and ive been blazing through the chapters (a german workbook)

[fair iron]

1. Der alte Mann wollte Tennis spielen.
2. Der Junge isst sein Gemüse.
3. Tim musste in der Schule (das) Klavier spielen.

[uncut ember]

ooh

i mixed up the conj for third person sing and third person plural

whoopsie

[fair iron]

Would you like to give Ehrlich some sentences, Arizona? That we we can simplify things.

[uncut ember]

Wait

how do you do that cool thing with the highlighted words and the different font

that would be su[per useful

[fair iron]

`Text`.

**Bold**.

[uncut ember]

'like this'

[gleaming moth]

` not '

[uncut ember]

like this

[shy bobcat]

@fair iron What kind of sentences?

😄

What’s Ehrlich practicing, if anything specific

[uncut ember]

text is italics

[fair iron]

Simple sentences to practice verb conjugation. Unless Ehrlich has something else in mind?

[gleaming moth]

mind if i jump in or is three quite a company?

[slender rain]

Nothing in particular. My conjugation is bad so it's k

[fair iron]

Feel free to join. ^^

[uncut ember]

"text" is italics without the quotats

• text *

[slender rain]

If you teach it they will come

[fair iron]

A single underscore on either side works too.

[uncut ember]

@fair iron to stop it from getting complicated we could move to general

[shy bobcat]

@slender rain ok, so just verb conjugation practices. 😄 right

[gleaming moth]

Ehrlich... translate if you build it, they will come

[sudden panther]

Conjugate bimsen.

[shy bobcat]

👀

[fair iron]

There's already a conversation going on there. ^^

[slender rain]

Ok

[uncut ember]

@fair iron we can continue here then

or go to #questions

[slender rain]

Wenn du es bauen wollen, werden sie kommen.

Ehh

[fair iron]

Here will do. This channel is used to getting cluttered with translations left, right, and centre. 😄

[slender rain]

Kk

[uncut ember]

ok

guess il just tag you if it gets necesary

[fair iron]

If you build it, *he will come. 😛

[uncut ember]

@fair iron we gonn continue?

[slender rain]

Wenn du es bauen wollen, wird er kommen. ?

[shy bobcat]

what is it supposed to be? I have goldfish memory

😅

[fair iron]

I was distracted, sorry. ^^

[uncut ember]

is ok

[shy bobcat]

@slender rain what is the original sentence?

[fair iron]

If you build it, he will come., Arizona.

[shy bobcat]

oh

@slender rain why wollen?

[uncut ember]

@fair iron am i supposed to do that one too?

[slender rain]

Cus I guessed the conjugation.

[shy bobcat]

No, why wollen at all?

That means “to want”

[fair iron]

You can if you'd like. Other than that you can have a go at these:
1. I play football every week.
2. I often fly to France.
3. The women buy clothes.

[slender rain]

Wait I can't read

I wanted to imply future. It was not a thing.

[uncut ember]

Ich jeden Woche fussball spiele

[slender rain]

Wenn du es bauen, wird er kommen. ?

[shy bobcat]

du bau-

[uncut ember]

Ich oft Fliege zu Frankreich

[shy bobcat]

what’s the ending you use with du

[slender rain]

St

[shy bobcat]

ok

[uncut ember]

Die Frauen kaufen Kleider

[shy bobcat]

then, du bauen can’t hardly be right, can it?

[lost dagger]

du bauenst

[shy bobcat]

@lost dagger bad snek

du bauemst 1 meme

[fair iron]

1. Close, syntax is off, though. Structure it as follows: Pronoun verb sport [...].

[uncut ember]

So

Ich spiele fussball jeden woche>

[fair iron]

Kleider is `dresses, but I can't fault you there. It works.

Nouns are capitalised.

[slender rain]

Nope. Wenn du es baust, wird er kommen? Is it bauest?

[shy bobcat]

Woche is not masculine @uncut ember 😉

[fair iron]

^

[uncut ember]

so what would i use

instead

[shy bobcat]

@slender rain baust 😄

[uncut ember]

instead of jeden

[fair iron]

Use *jede.

[uncut ember]

so the adverb jeder conjugates by gender of the noun it is used for>

the others are a-ok right?

[fair iron]

I'm afraid not.

[shy bobcat]

@slender rain I have some more sentences for you :D

1. Where did those children go last week?
2. Why did Dan and Pete lie to me?
3. Who are Dan and Pete???
4. You and me should practice more German together. 😄

[fair iron]

The second one is incorrect.

[shy bobcat]

If you need a dictionary, that’s OK

[sudden panther]

How do I say ??? in German?

[fair iron]

2. Pronoun verb [...] France.

[slender rain]

Ok

[uncut ember]

Ich fliege oft zu Frankreich?

[fair iron]

Almost.

zu is incorrect.

[uncut ember]

nach>

?

[shy bobcat]

😄

[fair iron]

Yep.

[uncut ember]

Ich fliege oft nach Frankreich?

[slender rain]

1. Wo gehen diese Kinder letzte Woche?

[tribal warren]

To countries, always Nach, right?

[fair iron]

1. I drink beer.
2. We eat pizza.
3. They drive a car.

[shy bobcat]

@slender rain that says “where are these children going last week”

[uncut ember]

Ich trinke Bier

[shy bobcat]

use a different tense 😄

[uncut ember]

Wir essen pizza

Sie fahren ein Auto

[slender rain]

Wo sind diese Kinder letzte Woche gegangen?

[shy bobcat]

You need a different where, like where-to

I’m using 1000 happy emojis so I don’t look mean when I tell people to do stuff 😄

@slender rain have you learned about hin and her yet?

[opal sequoia]

😄

[shy bobcat]

if not, I’ll just give you the right word 😛

[fair iron]

This one should be fun: No, I am your father. ^^

[slender rain]

Yes, but I have forgotten.

[shy bobcat]

@fair iron ne, i bims dir der Dad

[tribal warren]

Ari, I love the way you try being patient and nice

All the emojis

xD

I mean you are patient and nice, but the way you show it

[uncut ember]

Nein, Ich bin dein Vater

[fair iron]

Arizona doesn't try, he is. ❤

[tribal warren]

Yea, I noticed that looked like that Casca, sorry

[shy bobcat]

@slender rain ok, wohin means like “where (to)” if you will

that’s the word you need

[fair iron]

Missed opportunity, Arizona: Ne, I bims dir der Vader. ^^

[shy bobcat]

@fair iron i bims still nicht k1 memer 😦

[uncut ember]

@fair iron I want to ask you a question about a sentence from Downfall

or der untergang

[fair iron]

Sure.

[uncut ember]

a grammatical irregularity

at one point in his rant, hitler says Sie ist ohne ehre

which translate to They are without honor

but wouldnt the correct translation be sie sind ohne ehre?

[shy bobcat]

Sie, as in die deutsche Luftwaffe IIRC

[slender rain]

Oh so would I use wohin versus wo in that sentence?

[shy bobcat]

I don’t remember the line lel but IIRC he was ranting about the luftwaffe

@slender rain yes

[fair iron]

Afraid not, Arizona. ^^

This is the full quote in question:

Die Generalität ist ein Geschmeiß des deutschen Volkes!
Sie ist ohne Ehre!```

[shy bobcat]

@fair iron I haven’t watched der Untergang

😄

but same principle

[fair iron]

Sie is referring to Die Generalität, which is feminine third person singular.

[shy bobcat]

yeah, even tho I had the wrong noun (tbh I just thought of the first wwii-related feminine noun that would fit 😛) same reasoning

[slender rain]

Wohin sind diese Kinder letzte Woche gegangen? Why is this better tho?

[uncut ember]

@fair iron got it

[fair iron]

It shows that they left one place, and went to another. It indicates movement.

[shy bobcat]

^^

[uncut ember]

@fair iron i love hitler's strange pronunciation

[shy bobcat]

@fair iron letzte woche is correct right, I’m having a brain fart

[uncut ember]

he says verreiter, versager

[fair iron]

It is. ^^

[tribal warren]

Verräter*

[fair iron]

^

[uncut ember]

it comes out sounding like

[shy bobcat]

ok @slender rain first sentence down, onto the next 😄

[uncut ember]

freighter pachhaaghd!

[slender rain]

Lol thanks for the prompting.

[tribal warren]

Never watched Der Untergang, you guys recommend it?

[uncut ember]

ye

[opal sequoia]

Wow, Berg is getting better than me at German already.

[shy bobcat]

and yeah @uncut ember I haven’t watched der Untergang yet, because I’m kind of afraid of hitler’s accent 😛

[slender rain]

I have watched it like 4 times for courses.

[tribal warren]

@opal sequoia What

[slender rain]

Still pretty good tbh

[tribal warren]

I'll watch it, some time

can sometime be written some time?

🤔

oh

sometimes, some time

[shy bobcat]

sometimes and some time are different 😄

[tribal warren]

Yea, brain fart

[uncut ember]

Do you or did you guys ever have trouble with understanding english cinema where the actors talk very fast?

because i had that problem with downfall

[opal sequoia]

Do you need some time to think about it, Berg?

[tribal warren]

No. It was just a brain fart

Thanks :p

[gleaming moth]

does that happen sometimes?

[slender rain]

2. Warum lügen Dan und Pete zu mir?

[tribal warren]

@gleaming moth haha

[fair iron]

While both sometime and some time are adverbs, only the former is also an adjective. To stay on the safe side, stick with sometime.

[uncut ember]

@fair iron so he was saying basically: the general staff is without honor

not

[fair iron]

Yep.

[uncut ember]

they is without honor

got it

in gujarati

the word for pill

and bullet are the same

[tribal warren]

Casca, isn't it like 4 am to you?

or 3

[fair iron]

It's almost 02:00, so close. ^^

[quasi merlin]

2 am

[shy bobcat]

@slender rain again, present tense instead of paste tense, also don’t translate so literally. Go look up “to lie to” in dict.cc, and tell me what comes up.

[fair iron]

Mikaaaaaa! ❤

[shy bobcat]

It won’t be zu jdm. lügen

[uncut ember]

@fair iron more sentences pl0x?

[quasi merlin]

Cascaaaaaa! 💙

[tribal warren]

Oh right, 4 hours ahead

[shy bobcat]

Mikaaaaaa 💙

[quasi merlin]

Arizonaaaaaa 💙

[shy bobcat]

all our names end in aaaaa ❤

[slender rain]

Lol was going off memory and didn't realize they where different will do.

[tribal warren]

Bergaaaa

Cool, at 2 am I'd be derping instead of helping learners

Nice of you Casca

[fair iron]

1. The school had to close.
2. He has a television in his room.
3. You two are funny.

[slender rain]

This is seperable?

[shy bobcat]

I’m assuming you got jdn. anlügen

in which case yes

[tribal warren]

Question, is there sort of an internet verb for "crash"? As in when programs/apps crash?

[quasi merlin]

abstürzen

[uncut ember]

Die Schule mussen abschliessen

[fair iron]

Sterben also works. ^^

Wrong conjugation, Finesse.

[tribal warren]

Mein Discord stürzt ab

[shy bobcat]

mein browser ist gestorben 😦

[tribal warren]

:D

[fair iron]

Also, remove the ab-.

[uncut ember]

ok

[tribal warren]

Danke Mika

[quasi merlin]

crashen also works :P

[fair iron]

(The meaning changes if you include it.)

[tribal warren]

crashen, that's easier

[shy bobcat]

@quasi merlin yeah but saying my browser died is more fun 😄

[tribal warren]

True

Discord is dying

[fair iron]

Verreckt is another fun one.

[shy bobcat]

VerREKT OHHHHHH

[tribal warren]

OOH

There it is!

[quasi merlin]

How about abkacken?

[fair iron]

That too. ^^

[shy bobcat]

Ehrlich kinda disappeared 😦

[fair iron]

Abschmieren. 🤔

[slender rain]

nope switching to my computer

[shy bobcat]

nice

[tribal warren]

Discord crasht.
Discord sterbt
Discord stürtzt ab.

[uncut ember]

@fair iron I'll dm them to you later

[fair iron]

Ist Ehrlich ehrlich weg? Nein! ^^

[uncut ember]

Sorry I gotta go somewhere

[tribal warren]

Isn't abkacken, "to poop" or something?

[slender rain]

lul

[fair iron]

Sure, take care.

Think of it as to go to s**t, Berg.

[tribal warren]

Cya, Finesse

hmm

I see

[quasi merlin]

Discord crasht.
Discord stirbt.
Discord stürzt ab.
Discord verreckt.
Discord kackt ab.
Discord schmiert ab.

[shy bobcat]

@fair iron ew no, don’t be korea with the puns 🚪

[tribal warren]

Discord does what it does best

[fair iron]

Wo ist Discord schmiert ab, Mika?

[tribal warren]

Although I like Discord alot

[quasi merlin]

Da.

[fair iron]

What pun? ^^

Thanks Mika. ❤

[shy bobcat]

@fair iron idk, the Ehrlich ehrlich thing was a bad joke, not sure if I’d actually call it a pun but

😛

[sudden panther]

Are you implying that Korea makes bad jokes? 😮

[shy bobcat]

He makes great Flachwitze, but bad jokes ^^

[sudden panther]

Executed.

[shy bobcat]

😦

don’t execute me, I’m helping ehrlich do the learnz

[slender rain]

2.Warum hatten Dan und Pete zu mir anliegen?

[sudden panther]

Fiiiine. But after you're done, we're feeding you to the tigers.

[shy bobcat]

the zu is unnecessary ^^

[slender rain]

It is bit like sisyphus

[shy bobcat]

it’s jemanden angelogen

also angelogen is the correct participle

since I just accidentally wrote it

😛

[thick charm]

Oh so this is where everybody went

[slender rain]

2. Warum hatten Dan und Pete zu mir angelogen?

[shy bobcat]

the zu is unnecessary ^^

[opal sequoia]

@tribal warren Can you give me a sentence and be my German tutor? 😻

[tribal warren]

mir already implies it's "lying to someone"

[shy bobcat]

and without zu you’d then change the case of mir

[slender rain]

oops i missed the zu comments somehow.

[tribal warren]

@opal sequoia That'd be kinda weird, no? You're the grammar master

But if you want so, sure

[opal sequoia]

Yes, do it. My grammar sucks. 😄

[sudden panther]

You can be Chuck's tutor instead if you'd like.

[thick charm]

I'd like that

[slender rain]

cus i am the the direct object?

[shy bobcat]

yes

[opal sequoia]

So Chuck can finally learn German.

[thick charm]

hit me up with the A2 stuff

[shy bobcat]

what does the direct object mean casewise ^^

[slender rain]

2. Warum hatten Dan und Pete mich angelogen? Accusative?

[thick charm]

✅

[sudden panther]

Poor Chuck has been learning German his whole life and yet he still doesn't have a single certificate.

[tribal warren]

I thought it was Dative too

rip

[shy bobcat]

@thick charm doch, hatten ist noch falsch

[thick charm]

eh

[shy bobcat]

mein Originalsatz hat kein had gehabt

sondern did

= präsensperfekt

[thick charm]

Oh, da hätte ich drauf achten müssen.

My bad

[opal sequoia]

Direct object in English can be dative in German.

[shy bobcat]

@slender rain make hatten the present tense and then it will be right

@opal sequoia Being general here 😛

[sudden panther]

In short, German is weird.

[slender rain]

2. Warum haben Dan und Pete mich angelogen?

[shy bobcat]

@slender rain the reason is, we’re saying have lied to (which essentially means the same as just the past tense in most cases) and not had lied to (which would be even further in the past)

[slender rain]

hmm. still thinking about that.

ok I think I understand what your saying.

Thanks for the cookie. :>

3.Wer sind Dan und Pete?

[shy bobcat]

that was just a quick and easy one for the lolz 😄

[slender rain]

I'll take the W.

[shy bobcat]

the W?

[slender rain]

win

as opposed to the L.

[shy bobcat]

oh

😛

[slender rain]

4.Du und mir sollten mehr Deutsch zusammen lernen.

[shy bobcat]

mir 🤔

what case is du in?

[slender rain]

Nominative?

[shy bobcat]

Correct.

Therefore mir needs to be in it, as well

[opal sequoia]

Du and mir. Nice. 👌

[tribal warren]

You and me

doesn't make sense in English too

🤔

[shy bobcat]

tbh these days you and me is about as good as correct in english

even though it’s nasty

cases pls 😢

@slender rain What’s the nominative form of mir?

in other words “I”

[slender rain]

I am bad.

[shy bobcat]

ich

[slender rain]

Du und ich sollten mehr Deutsch zusammen lernen.

I forgot that I is the nominative of me. rip

[shy bobcat]

😄

[slender rain]

Thank you for the practice senteces and guiding. I hadn't realized how much I had forgotten about grammer. Really grateful 😄

[opal sequoia]

You and me isn't correct in English. You would be corrected on it. Even if people say it, it would be quickly corrected in any situation where grammar is considered.

[shy bobcat]

you and me have different opinions on that, then.

[slender rain]

The whole drop a word and does it make sense rule?

[shy bobcat]

yeah, that’d be it

[opal sequoia]

You and I have different opinions. But there is a difference between you and me. < Those are both correct.

[slender rain]

So I am writing these down, should I say "you and me" and "you and I" since the translation ended up being all nominative

[shy bobcat]

@opal sequoia Maybe you and me being more accepted in nominative position is an american thing, because I wouldn’t care or notice if someone did it

even though personally I do like you and I

har dee har, american = simplified english, but yeah

[opal sequoia]

I'm pretty sure this is one of those things that isn't just a difference of usage, but is just a widely spread mistake.

And you can argue that wide usage means it's correct if you want, but I would always correct it.

[slender rain]

like regardless versus irregardless

[opal sequoia]

Yeah, exactly.

[slender rain]

her would imply going away?

Where are those children going? Woher sind diese Kinder gehen?

[opal sequoia]

Oh yeah, "woher" is "where from" or "from where".

[slender rain]

So it would be Where are these kids coming from?

[opal sequoia]

So think here you say "wohin" = "to where" instead. And you also can't say "sind gehen".

[slender rain]

lol

true

[opal sequoia]

My prepositions aren't that good though so I'll let Arizona or someone answer the question as to what's best to use for what.

[slender rain]

lol I don't wnat to be a bother. I will put it on my list of things to work on

[opal sequoia]

It's no bother at all!

That's what the server is for, after all. 😄

Otherwise, it would just be purposeless, drifting aimless through cyberspace.

[slender rain]

fair enough

[shy bobcat]

@opal sequoia her is used for motion toward the speaker, hin away

generally

[opal sequoia]

Okay.

Thanks.

But the answer is for Ehrlich!

[shy bobcat]

Oh

yeah duh, I thought you were confused too

😛

@slender rain ^^

[grave vessel]

What’s the difference between this room and general1?

[shy bobcat]

nothing

this is literally general number 2

😛

[thick charm]

It's just for when general gets too crowded

or flooded with a topic you don't want to discuss

or when you want to torture other learners with sentences to translate

[opal sequoia]

Yeah or if you just want to post something and not disrupt the other chat.

[grave vessel]

Torture me

Say shizz and I wanna try keeping up

Auf Deutsch. Natürlich

will I ruin my running shoes/ get them stinky if I run while it's raining?

it's really raining hard

[arctic helm]

@lost dagger it won't ruin your running shoes as long as you dry them perfectly afterwards

Have been camping in British weather where it was so wet that my waterproof boots let in water. They were fine because I tried them out asap at the campsite each day

[sudden panther]

So silly "i have no idea how life works" question, what would have happened if you hadn't dried them? 🤔

[opal sequoia]

Probably like any clothes that you don't dry, they would get all smelly and moldy.

Or something like that.

[fair iron]

They would have stayed wet.
Keeping your feet soaked for long periods of time is unhealthy, and can lead to trench foot: https://www.wikiwand.com/en/Trench_foot [Warning, graphic]

[arctic helm]

gdmnit Casca, ew

[fair iron]

Don't blame me, you were adequately warned. ^^

[sudden panther]

Holy memes.

Don't google it because you don't like black and white photos.

It'll think that you might also want to see the results for "trench foot with necrosis" 🤢

[fair iron]

That is the most worrying effect, after all.

Search for images of any medical condition and you'll just as easily find worst-case scenarios as you will normal results.

[sudden panther]

He's right! https://i.imgur.com/esdfoqe.png

[opal sequoia]

I dunno, Arrem. Seems like a good time to me.

Look at them cheerful skeletons.

[fair iron]

You might just say that they're dancing on their graves.

[opal sequoia]

Seems they're just dancing on that other guy's grave, and he's like "Wtf, stop that, I'm trying to get some eternal slumber here."

[fair iron]

"No, cut it out. Stop that. What are you doing?"

"I've got a bone to pick with you!"

[opal sequoia]

Poor skelly.

[toxic urchin]

blue waffles is not even the worst thing

[slender rain]

@shy bobcat thanks for the advice.

Yeah trenchfoot, but the boots themselves can get super moldy and gross

It's the only way to prove your point and to solve an argument

[merry geyser]

Are they both as common?

(Thats basically all the German I know, and it even may be wrong)

[cyan frost]

A name change is what I needed. It has to be German though.

It fits me well.

[pine ginkgo]

Cause you like trains?

[ocean robin]

Oki dokie, so where is our pupil who I can give translationnis?

[uncut ember]

tag

[ocean robin]

Okay, so what's your level?

[uncut ember]

just simple sentences pl0x

like

describing people and actions

specifically verbs

[ocean robin]

Like mmmmh...

[uncut ember]

like

[ocean robin]

"She goes to the cinema"?

[uncut ember]

Sie geht ins Kino

?

[ocean robin]

Perfect.

[uncut ember]

how

[obtuse forge]

Ich bin ein einhorn :3

is that simple?

[uncut ember]

do i know if use nach or ins

[ocean robin]

Why would you use nach here? It can be either ins or zum Kino in this case.

[obtuse forge]

i believe nach is leik.... close

[uncut ember]

i mean

if im describing going somewhere

like

I am going to France is "Ich gehe nach Frankreich"

[ocean robin]

Yep.

[uncut ember]

but I am going to the cinema is "Ich gehe ins Kino"

whats the distinctions

[ocean robin]

Wait a sec that I am sure that I won't do a mistake in my explanations, because I can do that.

[uncut ember]

yay @fair iron !

[fair iron]

nach is used in context with locations that do not have an article.

[uncut ember]

ok

got it

[ocean robin]

Okay 2 fast 4 me.

[fair iron]

This mostly covers geographical locations, such as the large majority of countries.

[uncut ember]

so

[fair iron]

Ich fliege nach Frankreich/England/Deutschland.
Ich fliege in die Schweiz/Niederlande.

[uncut ember]

@fair iron or @ocean robin can we continue

[ocean robin]

Sure thing.

[uncut ember]

preferably more complicated than that

[ocean robin]

Another sentence hm?

[uncut ember]

because i want to make mistakes and get better

ye

[ocean robin]

With cases?

[uncut ember]

sure

why not

[ocean robin]

"He gives the cat a fish." I hope that makes sense in English lel.

"He gives to the cat a fish."

Better.

[pine ginkgo]

lol

[ocean robin]

actually I am even not sure about my sentences in Englishing even though I am considered as "fluent" lel

[uncut ember]

Er gibt der Katze einem Fisch

?

[ocean robin]

Okay. First.

What's the gender and the case for those 2 nouns?

[uncut ember]

i think cat is fem

die Katze

[ocean robin]

Yes.

Okay, sure thing.

[uncut ember]

fisch is neuter?

masculine?

[ocean robin]

Nope.

Yeah, masculine.

[pine ginkgo]

Yes

[uncut ember]

so einem fish is right?

[ocean robin]

Okay then. Next, what case are they in?

No it's not.

[uncut ember]

whoopsies

i mixed up dat and akku

in akku its einen

[ocean robin]

Here you claimed that Fisch was Dat.

[uncut ember]

ok

soi

[ocean robin]

Okay, so put that in the correction please.

[lost dagger]

hmm

[ocean robin]

TIL. 🤔
