[fair iron]

There, I've finished purging my Twitter. ^^

[timber glade]

[fair iron]

Now to continue to purge my other accounts. ^^

[fair iron]

She does, a little bit. ^^

[timber glade]

I'm very curious

[thick charm]

Asians look the same anyway

[timber glade]

[fossil zenith]

Ok danke 😃

[ocean robin]

🤔

[hot cloak]

I KNOW HOW CASCA LOOKS LIKE

[ocean robin]

WAIT WHAAAAAT

[timber glade]

wHAT

[thick charm]

Das Fußballspielen would theoretically grammatically work as it's a nominalised verb in that case, @fossil zenith , however it would still sound weird

[hot cloak]

AND HE IS GOING TO BEST THE SEXIEST OFFICER OF GERMANY

[ocean robin]

THE HECK

[hot cloak]

RIP YOU GRILLLS

[ocean robin]

HOW DO YOU KNOW HOW HE LOOKS LIKE FOXXO

[timber glade]

and he was like "Nah, cause I know I'm the best"

[fair iron]

I know what Foxxo looks like, so I thought it'd be fair if she knew what I looked like.

[hot cloak]

Because he sent me a photo of him

[timber glade]

"Just kidding, I trust you to always love me the most"

[ocean robin]

[fluid horizon]

[opal sequoia]

Purging social media takes so long. 🙃

[ocean robin]

[timber glade]

I am very slow

[ocean robin]

I'm pretty fast.

[timber glade]

That's rly cool

I couldn't draw fast no matter how hard I tried haha

[ocean robin]

Did this in 1.30h.

I should get her to take a pic of one of her orints with her signature for me

Prints*

[shy bobcat]

chuck wow 😍

[hushed oriole]

Guys, I need some proof-readers. Short story, English, 320 words, for an assessment. It should be intriguing and provoke something in the reader. Any volunteers?

[fair iron]

Sure.

[sour mesa]

what is coming round?

[hushed oriole]

(It should be less than 280 and it's 320, so any suggestion of what i might leave out is welcome. if you think it's trash, you can't understand it or whatever let me know and i'll write a new one. i really want it to be cool)

to regain concioussness

consciousness*

[sour mesa]

Oh TIL

I tidied up her room before dad came home lest he freak out.

lest he frik out?

[fair iron]

Yep.

[sour mesa]

i learn new things everyday

[pine ginkgo]

otherwise he would freak out

kinda like that

[hushed oriole]

i've tried to use "high-level" structures but i may have done it wrong lol

[fair iron]

*came around.

To keep the sentence in the same tense: nose *was bleeding.

[hushed oriole]

Mmm no, you will see

[fair iron]

O:

get rid of now.

The now sounds odd.

[hushed oriole]

i know. i've been thiking about it but i don't know how to put it

[fair iron]

Remove the now, and it sounds great.

[hushed oriole]

okay, one word less lol

[fair iron]

I'd also opt for freshly-baked cookies.

[timber glade]

In However, unlike the previous occasions, my head is not throbbing. I'd put the past tense. my head was not throbbing

[fair iron]

If the first sentence is in the present tense, then I'd keep it at is.

[timber glade]

^

keep to one tense

[hushed oriole]

The whole first paragraph is in the present

[timber glade]

Oh I thought we were putting them in past tense now

[hushed oriole]

Come, am wearing...

No, no

[timber glade]

ahh ok then sorry for the misunderstanding

Her duvet was full or gore what does this mean

[hushed oriole]

I had to use some specific resources of "complex narratives" and well i chose one and you will see haha

Np, i really appreciate your help :)

bloodstains

[fair iron]

full *of gore.

[timber glade]

yeah

[hushed oriole]

ups typo

[timber glade]

I wasn't sure if I misunderstood it

[hushed oriole]

didn't even read it when Thi posted it lol sorry

[timber glade]

wwww npnp

[fair iron]

*blackout.

until it *became ashes.

[hushed oriole]

thanks!
but the later hmmm not sure coz it's back in the present

[timber glade]

what does beet mean?

beet cookies

[pine ginkgo]

a type of plant thingy

[fair iron]

^

[hushed oriole]

i don't know if you understand the story :((((((( maybe I haven't written it well

[timber glade]

no it's just some parts which im not sure of

[hushed oriole]

yup, red/pink thingy

[fair iron]

It's written well, don't worry. ^^

[timber glade]

It's good !!

[fair iron]

Rote Beete, Thi.

[timber glade]

Rote Beete Kekse

[hushed oriole]

sooooo do you get the general idea?!?!?!

[timber glade]

yeahh

[hushed oriole]

coz my friend had no clue and i'm going crazy lol

[timber glade]

I'm for putting the first two sentences in past tense though

and for this sentence: I set the crumpled paper on fire until it becomes ashes, for only I will know her last message

putting the first phrase in a future tense would make more sense to me
I will set the crumpled paper on fire until it becomes ashes, for only I will know her last message not quite sure ...

[hushed oriole]

about the past tense... maybe the first to sentences sound better indeed. i'll consider it! :) the thing is that, as I said, I had to include POV/flashbacks or flash fowards/a circular structure... so changing the tense would imo reduce the effect of the circular story i search

it's really difficult using that kind of stuff in 220-260 writings lol fokken assessment

[timber glade]

it's true

When I finally come around, my nose is bleeding… again. However, unlike the previous occasions, my head is not throbbing.
I understand this as
As soon as I come around (you sort of realise this before it happens? which doesn't make much sense) my nose is bleeding (somehow it just started bleeding). but this time your head is not throbbing

When I finally came around, my nose was bleeding… again. However, unlike the previous occasions, my head was not throbbing.
This however
I came around (it already happened, you are conscious again and you realised this), my nose was bleeding (it hasn't JUST started when you came around). Unlike the other times, the head was not throbbing (as if would be throbbing during the short timespan of regaining consciousness)

Not sure it it makes sense

The structure does not change dw

[hushed oriole]

Ohh yeah, it does make much more sense

[timber glade]

Or maybe I get too easily confused ffjsldkfjslgkjkg

[hushed oriole]

Especially the first sentence

no, you are right, Thi

[timber glade]

yeah!

[hushed oriole]

Thanks :)

[timber glade]

np tristy

[hushed oriole]

i'm gonna check just one thing

yeah, i'll change it :) thanks

[timber glade]

okay np !!!

should we cut your text shorter?

you said you had too many words

[hushed oriole]

mmm if you feel that there are unnecesary things, i would really use it :(

i started with 350 and now it's 310 so it's better haha

[timber glade]

Her duvet was full or gore and the drawers were open

maybe as Her duvet was full or gore, the drawers open

ah full of**

sorry forgot to correct that when copypasting

[hushed oriole]

Does this work in English: Her duvet was full of gore; the drawers, open ? I don't think so in Spanish it sounds great tho

[timber glade]

maybe wihtout the comma

but it does work

Sheera's name is kinda unnecessary in this short text so you can remove another word there and just refer to her as, well, 'her'

The context makes it clear whom you're referring to

After rationalising the situation, I blamed it on my mourning her loss.

You can leave out her loss here since mourning implies the expression fo sorrow over someone's death

[hushed oriole]

(yeah right i could even make it a boy and i'd be even more obvious but less lesbianishy (? )

oh that's true

[timber glade]

Or write it as Rationalising the situation, I blamed it on my mourning

three words less !

[hushed oriole]

great, thanks😚

i don't think i can leave out much more :( maybe full sentences but...

[timber glade]

I set the crumpled paper on fire until it becomes ashes, for only I will know her last message

maybe
I set the crumpled paper ablaze, reduced to ashes, for only I will know her last message

Just a suggestion

[fair iron]

Sounds poetic, I like it.

[timber glade]

setting something ablaze means the same as setting something on fire

[hushed oriole]

oh beautiful, Thi!

you should write (?)

[timber glade]

two words less hahaha

No pls no I'm bad at expressing myself

[fair iron]

Reducing the letter into the ghost of an ember.

[hushed oriole]

i have taken out a "which" and a couple of adjetives

[timber glade]

ahhh nice~

[hushed oriole]

i may take out the "I'm sorry I used you", since i was just trying to make obvious what happened

[timber glade]

I think it's good

[hushed oriole]

buuut good readers don't need that

(?)

[timber glade]

I was very confused about it and it made it clear to me hahaha

Ah

[hushed oriole]

AH

Okau

HAHAHAHA

[timber glade]

I was confused about teh story

[hushed oriole]

Forget it then

[timber glade]

and the "sorry I used you" made everything clear to me

[hushed oriole]

gosh i'm too obscure

Well I have 300 words... i think it's acceptable

[timber glade]

Should be okay 😃

[hushed oriole]

just 40 words more than allowed... haha

the limit was just too low for this kind of writing

[timber glade]

280 * 110% = 308

as max

so it should be okay ❤

oh??

thought the limit was 280

[hushed oriole]

Nop it was 260 but it's okay

[timber glade]

ohhh 😂

[hushed oriole]

i'll talk to the teacher

[timber glade]

Yeah it is very low.

[hushed oriole]

she really wanted us to use different points of view, or spatio temporal frames, flash backs...

that's impossible with 220 words

[timber glade]

yeah definitely

[hushed oriole]

Thank you so much, Thi<3

[timber glade]

npnp owo

I love proofreading

[hushed oriole]

i owe you a favour! and casca too, but a smaller one :P

[timber glade]

Haha np you don't owe me anything ❤

Recently my friend who studies sinology had to translate a text about how vietnam came to be and I got to proofread it haha

it was fun

[hushed oriole]

man that sounds soooo cool

i love it

i love writing but i'm really insecure and i don't usually let anyone read what i write

i'm trying to be more open about it

[fair iron]

I like your writing style.

[timber glade]

same as Casca

Tristy you're good

sharing with others also means you'll get feedback so don't worry

but do so as you feel you're ready to share your writing

[hushed oriole]

i've been reading lately so much in English that i feel my style is better in English than in Spanish lol

[timber glade]

I can feel my brain breaking down as the date of my exam comes closer

[ocean robin]

😮 I want to write now god

[hushed oriole]

but i still make a lot of mistakes

[sour mesa]

I really want to write a gut story

[hushed oriole]

when is your exam? :)

[timber glade]

See, Tristy? You inspired other people to write 😃 Isn't that the greatest compliment for a writer?

Tuesday 😭

Making mistakes is part of learning!!

[hushed oriole]

Flaps i'll support you!!!

[ocean robin]

I mean, I have never written something in English

Only French

[hushed oriole]

wow work hard on it!! you will nail it💪🏼 what is it about?

anything* :P

[timber glade]

It's Math for engineers, part 1

[ocean robin]

And the teacher said that my writings are getting better and better

oof

[hushed oriole]

spills the tea ugh i nate it

hate*

[timber glade]

I'm pretty good at math and got like 80% + in all of my hw so I'm like, not too worried, but then again I am extremely anxious when I have to perform at a set time

so I get extremely anxious about that

I just said the same thing twice

and I cant think straight

ahahah cries TT

[fair iron]

You'll do great, I believe in you.

[timber glade]

thank you ;;;;;;;;;; ❤

[hushed oriole]

oh then you'll nail it, don't worry☺

[timber glade]

Writing texts in another language enhances your understanding of that language !!

It's very recommended

also translating texts

[hushed oriole]

just have a tila or sth before it :P

and believe in yourself!

we already believe in you :3

[ocean robin]

You'll nail it, Thi

[timber glade]

Thank you TT I will at least pass, but I hope to perform really well !! I want to make my mom and my brother proud TT

aND OFC MYSELF

Thank you all for believing in me ;;

[hushed oriole]

❤

you'll do :)

[timber glade]

😭 💕

[astral elm]

I really want to get better at hearing but I don't know where to start, I can understand a lot of what my friend says irl but he speaks a little too fast for me to understand the full meaning. Does anyone know any good resources for that?

[misty rain]

I just kept exposing myself to audio. There's a soap opera that has episodes on YouTube (https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL93C71558767C2E55) that I listen to every week. They even have German subtitles. There are other channels I listen to, such as Easy German, German with Jenny, and Deutsch mit Marija.

You could also look for German songs/playlists on spotify. here's one I found recently with a bunch of songs: https://open.spotify.com/user/major_grooves/playlist/46vtMlAI8YkCO36DYyWhU0

And then you have podcasts and audio books. Just depends on what type of speaking you want to listen to. Podcasts will be more natural speaking and probably harder to follow, and audio books will be easier.

[astral elm]

ooooh thank you

[lost dagger]

i'm eating ghostpepper chips and they're making my tongue sweat

[ember narwhal]

noice

[lost dagger]

lemonade isn't much good against tongue hurtiness

[ember narwhal]

XD

damn.

[timber glade]

anyone want to listen to music together on spotify? 👀

[opal sequoia]

What kind of music?

[timber glade]

uhhh different thngs

or whatever you prefer !!

i listen to kpop, jpop and some western artists !!!

[thick charm]

Dafür müsste ich erst einmal ne Playlist machen mit Songs die mir nicht peinlich sind

[timber glade]

😂

Mach doch dann hör ich mit :^)

Musst aber nicht

[thick charm]

nö

[timber glade]

ok 😂

[thick charm]

zuuu faul

[opal sequoia]

Do I have to connect my spotify to discord to listen with people?

[thick charm]

You do

[safe yacht]

I have a question about this Spotify connection thing. Can you see what I'm listening to right now? I can only see my own on desktop.

[thick charm]

no

[safe yacht]

Ok thanks

So I guess the desktop app has to be open then?

[full falcon]

I don't know if it works with the web version

[safe yacht]

I'm on mobile right now

[full falcon]

I don't think mobile support was added already

I think Arrem told me that

@sudden panther Need confirmation please^^

[ocean robin]

It isn't

can confirm

[full falcon]

Ok thankies^^

[sudden panther]

It usually takes Discord about 50 years to add a new feature to mobile.

[full falcon]

Oh

[fair iron]

@timber glade Does the offer to listen to music with you still stand? If so, I'd like to accept. ^^

[timber glade]

yaaaaa

omg hi casca

❤

[fair iron]

Hey. :D

[timber glade]

how is you

sorry if I skip a lot of songs, I recently got spotify and just added every artist my friends recommended me 😰

[fair iron]

I'm great, and you? ^^

Don't worry about skipping songs. :D

Play whatever makes you happy.

[timber glade]

I'm sleepy and hangry >< but other than that, pretty good mood

thank you ❤

[fair iron]

Is there nothing to eat?

[timber glade]

There is plenty, I'm just too lazy to make something

Hyolyn ist queen btw

[fair iron]

^^

It's pretty catchy.

[timber glade]

yeees aaa

MHHH PARADISEEE

[fair iron]

^^

Is it Christmas already? O:

[timber glade]

It's always chritmas for me HAHAHA

I love christmas,,,,

I love christmas songs too

[fair iron]

Me too.

[timber glade]

OMG !!!!!

[fair iron]

Christmas is the best holiday.

I knew I recognised that song within a second. ^^

This was my favourite song when it came out.

[timber glade]

FFFJSDKFJSKF I LOVE IT

[silver briar]

halloooo

[timber glade]

huhuu !

[silver briar]

ich studiere Adjektive

und ich habe eine Frage

was ist das Gegenteil von "herzlich"

[fair iron]

Unfreundlich.

[silver briar]

uuuuh

my bad

[weary spoke]

There isn't really a clear opposite

[silver briar]

exactly

[weary spoke]

Viel besser wie unfreundlich geht es nicht

It's more like a feeling than anything, warm, open

[silver briar]

which one of them fits better

[fair iron]

Warm and open? Like Thi. ^^

[weary spoke]

If you're looking for one word unfruendlich is probably best

[silver briar]

alright

[weary spoke]

if it's more about what acting opposite of herzlich would be then I'd definetly say behaving cold, distant, not conversational

einfach unfreundlich 😃

[silver briar]

i study like writing Adjektiv, Bedeutung, then Gegenteil und Bedeutung

[weary spoke]

Ah nice

[timber glade]

Casca 😂

[weary spoke]

Wie lange studierst du schon duetsch?

[silver briar]

so vielen vielen Dank, Casca und Sjoti

uh 3 Monate

ungefähr

[fair iron]

¯_(ツ)_/¯

[weary spoke]

schon schon

[silver briar]

thanks again

gute Nacht oder guten Morgen!

[fair iron]

@timber glade Either you really love that song, or it's queued twice, or this is blind luck. ^^

[timber glade]

I Love Motohiro Hata 👀

I've got like ALL of his albums saved in my playlists

best musician IMHO

[fair iron]

^^

Ah, this was the artist of your favourite song.

Wait.

Interesting.

[timber glade]

yeeesss

[fair iron]

The Perfume song played twice in a row for me, that's why I was confused. :D

[timber glade]

Ohhh I shall show you one of my other favourite songs from him !!!

ohhhh I see WWWW sORRY I confused them hahaha

[fair iron]

You have nothing to apologise for. :P

[timber glade]

It was a misunderstanding on my side! So I apologise for that uwu

My mom did teach me manners after all !

[pine ginkgo]

FRAU CHICA, WAS TUN SIE DENN DA

[fair iron]

Haha, as did mine. However, apologising for things that aren't your fault isn't needed. ^^

I didn't realise that I was no longer listening along for some reason.

[timber glade]

LUNA!!! SIE HABEN NICHTS GESEHEN

Ohhh I see 😮

But you came back 😊

[fair iron]

Once I realised, yep. ^^

[timber glade]

A puzzle of 70 pieces !!

[fair iron]

O:

Panic! At The Disco!

[timber glade]

General is moving so fast slfdjslkdfmskf

I added them from my friend's playlist ffsjdlkfsjf don't know many songs

[fair iron]

Emperor's New Clothes is a personal favourite of mine.

[pine ginkgo]

i do imagine

chicoa having a stroke when she talks irl too

🤔

or doing some funny things while talking

🤔

[fair iron]

I've wondered the same.

Swinging her arms wildly out of excitement?

[pine ginkgo]

"Hey, Casca, I just played with my bunnies and >ARfsetaew6atzqa36w34t, it was so great!"

[timber glade]

I do !!! flap my arms sometimes

[fair iron]

^^

[timber glade]

and I stutter a lot irl when I get too excited

or wiggle weirdly ??? not sure

[fair iron]

That sounds cute.

[timber glade]

Nick said he finds it cute, too ahahadlksjfkf

[pine ginkgo]

can you ask nick to make a video of you adsgezwe4zqw3asetzing?

[timber glade]

I'm a LOT calmer irl than online though wwww

[fair iron]

That still doesn't sound that calm.

[timber glade]

Omg I'll try ??

ahhhh I don't usually show my moods that much when I don't know people really well and I easily detach myself from conversation

it's such a problem honestly

but I'm still a pre uh

not sure what teh word was

cheerful !! person

[fair iron]

Peppy? Perky?

[timber glade]

sorta !!!!

I try really really hard to be likeable haha

I'm very scared of people disliking me or finding me rude

but it's gotten a lot better recently 😰

[fair iron]

Who could find you rude? You're incredibly kind and likeable.

[weary spoke]

Is there a german word for wholesome?

Because what you just said is super wholesome

[timber glade]

Ahh thank you TT I hope to keep your image of me up ❤

omg sjoti thank you sfdjslkdfmksdf

Actually I'm curious too lemme google a bit

[weary spoke]

Translate doesn't give proper resultst

google translate

[timber glade]

yeah same 😂

[fair iron]

I'm sure you exceed the image I have of you.

[weary spoke]

erhebend?

gemutlich?

[timber glade]

it keeps saying gesundheitsfördernd

[weary spoke]

But it isn't about health though

It's more about you guys just being super positive towards eachother

😃

[timber glade]

gemütlich sounds good, it has more of a "comfortable" meaning though

[weary spoke]

yeah

[timber glade]

Sjoti you're so sweet ❤

[fair iron]

^

[weary spoke]

I'm just going with the flow 😛

[fair iron]

There's no greater gift than a smile.

[timber glade]

"good for you, and likely to improve your life either physically, morally, or emotionally"

sounds very much like gesundheitsfördernd, but in a less health-related way? hahaah

Fördert das Wohlbefinden

gibt es dafür ein Wort?

Das allgemeine Wohlbefinden steigt

Another christmas song 🎵

[weary spoke]

Manchmal denke ich was die worter auf Niederlandisch sein weil niederlandisch und duetsch wie einander sein

[timber glade]

Sie sind sich tatsächlich sehr ähnlich!

Aber ich habe trotzdem Probleme, Niederländer korekt zu verstehen ww

[weary spoke]

Meinst du wen wir duetsch sprechen?

wann?

[timber glade]

wenn*

[weary spoke]

ah danke

[timber glade]

Nein, wenn Niederländer Niederländisch sprechen. Die Wörter sind sich ähnlich, aber trotzdem ist es doch eine ganz andere Sprache 😄

[fair iron]

Wholesome is physically and emotionally healing, so perhaps heilend/heilsam would work in German.

[timber glade]

ohh!!

heilsam!!!!

Probably that one !!

[weary spoke]

Wholesome can also be used to describe positivity

https://www.reddit.com/r/wholesomememes/

[timber glade]

A Japanese friend once described my personality as heilsam

[fair iron]

I agree with your friend, Thi.

[weary spoke]

That's a sweet thing!

[timber glade]

hahaha that was so cute of him I'm still happy about his compliment to this day

TT thank you

[ocean robin]

thi is kewt

[timber glade]

Floopsie!!! You, too ❤

[fair iron]

Du bist Balsam für die Seele. ^^

[timber glade]

Ahhhh du schmeichelst mir TT ❤

[weary spoke]

@timber glade What you said about Dutch though, for me being Dutch is a big benefit when it comes to learning german

[timber glade]

Yes!!! I can imagine, since the pronunciation is also pretty close

[weary spoke]

But it doesn't mean that it's super easy

Oh absolutely

[timber glade]

and I guess the grammar structures are very similar?

[weary spoke]

We don't have genetiv, dativ and all that stuff

[timber glade]

Ahhh yes

[weary spoke]

but sentence structure is very very similar

[timber glade]

Ouhhhh what an advantage~

[ocean robin]

it's kinda a pain for me since we only have a few similarities with French

[weary spoke]

Yeah, that's way harder

[fair iron]

You're a polyglot at 15, Flappy. You're doing great. ^^

[weary spoke]

Damn flappy

[ocean robin]

😮

[weary spoke]

that's very impressive

[ocean robin]

Yeah, I can speak 4 languages more or less

[weary spoke]

Ich hab fast 10 jahre her duetsch in schule gehabt

[ocean robin]

:o

[timber glade]

Ohh~ Impressive !

@ both of you haha

[ocean robin]

My Spanish is shit though

[timber glade]

I used to learn English, French and Italian at school

[ocean robin]

And I began Japanese but took a break

[timber glade]

though I always sucked at Italian

[ocean robin]

I want to start it again

[weary spoke]

4 jahre habe ich ein bisschen duetsch gelernt, aber die latzte 5 jahre habe ich fast kein duetsch gesprochen, geredet etc.

[ocean robin]

I actually have troubles learning Spanish

i feel dumb

[weary spoke]

Und ich bin so so so viel vergessen

[timber glade]

Floopsie if you want to, we could study Japanese together ❤

I'm thinking about picking it up again

[ocean robin]

😮 YES

[weary spoke]

I'm trying to pick it back up

[timber glade]

I do love the language and the people + the culture

[weary spoke]

What languages do you guys speak?

[ocean robin]

yeees

French native here

[timber glade]

Vietnamese heritage, but German native

and somewhat fluent in English

[ocean robin]

• English (B2)/German (B1)/ Spanish(A1)

[weary spoke]

I had some french in school, I'm so shit at it

[pine ginkgo]

asian chica!!!

[timber glade]

Lunaaaaa !!!!!!! One and only Moon 🌝

I liked French a lot when I had it !!

But I was very lazy www

[ocean robin]

French is horrible at verbs

I wonder how you find them, Casci

Because there's too much verbs endings, I remember it was a pain for me as well

[timber glade]

I do love the sound of French !!!!

[ocean robin]

:P

[timber glade]

Ahh that truly was very difficult TT

verb endings

[ocean robin]

I have a very very strong accent there

[timber glade]

👀 does not matter I like the sound of French as a language

[weary spoke]

Ich muss aufhoren die ganze zeit english zu reden

[fair iron]

Somewhat fluent? Don't sell yourself short, Thi.

[timber glade]

I'm not that fluent in speech !!

[ocean robin]

^ same

[timber glade]

And I forget a lot of words

www

[fair iron]

You're fluent to me.

[ocean robin]

I get stressed and forget words in spoken English

[timber glade]

Casca is always very positive and encouraging ❤

Floopsie, me too 😂

[weary spoke]

Practice makes perfect 😃

[ocean robin]

And for German oof

[timber glade]

esp at work when we have international guests or coworkers over

[ocean robin]

You know the journey I have been doing except for the newcomers

[timber glade]

pets you

you can do it !!!!

Remember you're getting better with every day you're studying German !!

[ocean robin]

But dunno how I could improve that fast tbh

I came here in July as an A1

[timber glade]

Your progress is already impressive 😊 ✨

[ocean robin]

❤ love you, thi

[weary spoke]

@ocean robin What language are you talking about?

oh wait

[ocean robin]

German there. :P

[fair iron]

Flappy, you're the fastest learner I've seen on this server.

[ocean robin]

I came here as a little beginner.

[pine ginkgo]

mh 🤔

[timber glade]

Lunyan

[ocean robin]

"Hi, I don't know how to German even though I had 2 years in school, my vocab is shit"

[pine ginkgo]

chicynan

[ocean robin]

aaaaa casci ❤

[weary spoke]

Last friday I was in amsterdam at this huge event where companies promoted all these technological systems

Walking around and being able to casually talk in English with ease is such a valuable skill

That's basically a huge motivation for me to pick german back up again

[ocean robin]

When I talked in VC with Mika and Casci in English, it actually made me proud when they understood me

;;

[weary spoke]

Just being able to walk around and have a conversation without this big hurdle in the way

[timber glade]

Ohhhhh I want to go to Amsterdam again, it was so beautiful

Yes!! It feels so wonderful

I agree haha

[weary spoke]

I'm starting an internship in amsterdam tomorrow 😃

[pine ginkgo]

take me with you chicoa!

[timber glade]

sure lunyan !!!

Ohh awesome sjoti !!

[weary spoke]

Just about everyone speaks english in amsterdam btw

[fair iron]

Ooh, Amsterdam. Beautiful. ^^

[weary spoke]

So I wouldn't recommend picking up Dutch

[ocean robin]

I still want to go abroad 😦

[timber glade]

Floopsie do you live far away from the borders?

omg "the borders" sounds so.. strange..

[ocean robin]

Nooo, I don't live so far from Italy

[pine ginkgo]

and switzerland!

:o

[ocean robin]

See the Mont Blanc? I live not so far from there.

[timber glade]

Ohhhh !!! Floopsie next time im oing to france ill come over 😂

[ocean robin]

1 hour or so.

😮

AYYYYYA THI

[timber glade]

my family likes to go to italy for vacation a lot

[fair iron]

You could act rebellious and take a picture of the Eiffel Tower at night. ^^

[ocean robin]

I'm actually going to Paris next week

so maybe

[timber glade]

Ohhh !! ii ne

[ocean robin]

I'm so happy I'm on holiday ;;

I was so tired of school lately

[timber glade]

Ahhh hope you get to rest lots 😃

[fair iron]

No breaking the law, Flappy. You have too bright a future.

[ocean robin]

:( I know that, Casci

[timber glade]

oh is it against the law to take a picture of the eiffel tower at night?????

[ocean robin]

I'm still very worried about school, even on holiday

[pine ginkgo]

flops has so many holidays lately :o

[timber glade]

That sounds ridiculous

pets you floopsie

[fair iron]

It is, Thi.

[ocean robin]

I had 6 weeks of school and then boom holidays

[timber glade]

if you dont have assignments or exams, try to just chill 😄

ohhh I didn't know!! oh my god I took pictures of the eiffel tower at night before 😱

[ocean robin]

😮

[timber glade]

Will I get arrested now

[mellow mist]

Why is it against the law?

[fair iron]

The lights still have copyright protection, so you cannot take/show a picture of them without permission.

[mellow mist]

Wow

[fair iron]

I'd gladly arrest you, Thi.

[timber glade]

///q////

Also wow !! I didn't know

[fair iron]

Spotify kicked me out again. 🤔

[ocean robin]

🤔

[fair iron]

This time I realised, though. ^^

[weary spoke]

Woa, never knew that @fair iron

[timber glade]

Ohhh welcome back 😄

[weary spoke]

About the eiffel tower

Quickly googled it, it's "technically" illegal

[fair iron]

Not technically, it's 100% illegal.

[weary spoke]

But nobody has ever been in trouble over it

[fair iron]

However, nobody would prosecute.

[timber glade]

PHEW

[fair iron]

^^

[weary spoke]

technically illegal and 100% illegal are the same thing though 😛

[fair iron]

ABBA! I love you, Thi. ^^

[timber glade]

;^)

I love you too

[ocean robin]

Well Thi, tbh I am quite worried because I'm not super sure whether I can be in the class I want to next year or if teachers will be like "ok you go there".

[timber glade]

Ohhh :^(((( I see, I get how that would be worrying

is there anything you can do?

[ocean robin]

have good grades

[fair iron]

The lights are considered an artistic work. This copyright will stay in place until 70 years after the artist's passing.

[timber glade]

do you? 👀
