Anybody here using an iPhone? Private calls work fine but i don’t hear anything in vcs and idk if that’s a discord problem or my phone’s problem. (Tried googling it, couldn’t find anything)

[proper shale]

i dont use an iphone but have you tried turning your phone on and off again

you could also uninstall and reinstall the app

other than that you can report the problem to the developers

[hot cloak]

Tried and tried

It’s not a one time thing

[proper shale]

then rip

[pine ginkgo]

mhh, have you tried with different headsets/microphones/thingies

[hot cloak]

I dont use headsets nor microphones for my phone

It works on my laptop, just not on my phone :c

[pine ginkgo]

still try different thingies

to see if it persists through different thingies

or only if no thingies

[proper shale]

suzu do all your speakers work properly

for example you have a loudspeaker and an earspeaker

[hot cloak]

Ok found out sth interesting

It works perfectly ok in other servers too

Just not in this one

Double rip

[pine ginkgo]

[little magnet]

H: Hallo, Jakob! Ich bin gerade zu Hause angekommt.
J: Ja, ich auch. Wie geht’s, Hans?
H: Ich muss dir erzählen, über was ich habe in dem Autobus gesehen!
J: Hast du den Busfahrer gesehen?
H: Natürlich, du Idiot, aber der ist nicht das berümte Teil! („aber der“ to refer to the busfahrer in previous line? Or do I have to go with “aber dass”?)
J: So was hast du dann gesehen?
H: Die andere Reisenden haben keine Klamotten getragen!
J: Was? Sie sind nackt gewesen? Es ist sehr kaltes Wetter auch!
H: Ja, genau! Die Frau neben mir hat nur eine Zeitung gehabt.
J: Haben sie nackt bekommen, bevor oder nach du hast auf den Autobus eingestiegen?
Haben sie nackt bekommen, als du bevor oder nach im Autobus eingestiegen bist?
How do i form the sentence like that? ^
Als du bist im Autobus eingestiegen, hatten sie schon nackt bekommen?
H: Ich weiß nicht! Ich hatte mein Handy angestarrt. Ich habe mich zuerst hingesetzt, danach ich habe aufgeschaut, und ich habe sie gesehen.
J: Hast du sie gefragt, warum sie sind nackt?
H: Ja, und sie hat mir etwas gesagt, dass macht sehr viel Sinn.
J: Ja, und…??
H: Sie haben mir gesagt, dass…

Yeesh, that didn't format as well as i'd hoped...

So, I had to write a short dialogue for a homework assignment, and the teacher gave me a few pointers and said i should try to rewrite it.

Just looking for some help going over it

First line I see should be angekommen, not angekommt, right?

For the third line... should it be "...was ich in dem Autobus gesehen habe" instead?

For the fifth line ("Natürlich, du Idiot, aber der ist nicht das berümte Teil! "), she commented that she wasn't sure what i was trying to say. I was trying to say something like "yes, of course i saw the bus driver, but that's not the important part."

[opal sequoia]

Hmmm.

For the first and third line, yes.

berühmt is like "famous"

Important is "wichtig"

[little magnet]

ahhh thank you

[opal sequoia]

I don't know what the best way to phrase it is.

[little magnet]

In the 5th line i used "der" to refer back to the busfahrer in the previous line, is that correct?

[opal sequoia]

"so" in German is not like "so" in English btw.

[little magnet]

Or should i just go with "dass"?\

[opal sequoia]

I mean, "der" is grammatically correct, but I don't know if it's a natural way to say that sentence.

[little magnet]

right

[opal sequoia]

"dass" is 100% wrong.

[little magnet]

ok

Hmm...

Natürlich, du Idiot, aber der ist nicht das wichtiges Teil!

[keen snow]

...

Wow

[little magnet]

Natürlich, du Idiot, aber der ist nicht was ist wichtig.

just take out teil completely?

or reduce it even more: Natürlich, du Idiot, aber der ist nicht wichtig.

lol i just realized i had two ist's in there

[opal sequoia]

Yeah, you'd have to make another clause to have that one with two ists.

[little magnet]

yeah

i think im just trying to say something too complicated for my german level

[opal sequoia]

You can just say das ist nicht wichtig.

[little magnet]

like this one: Natürlich, du Idiot, aber der ist nicht wichtig. ?

[opal sequoia]

Hmm.

I don't know.

It sounds weird to me but I'm not a native speaker.

[little magnet]

sounds weird?

hmm

any idea how you would convey what im trying to say?

[opal sequoia]

I think the simplest way I'd write it is aber das ist unwichtig.

[little magnet]

Natürlich, du Idiot, aber er ist nicht wichtig.

maybe?

when do you use unwichtig vs nicht wichtig?

[opal sequoia]

I don't think there is much difference.

But, to me, unwichtig sounds better.

Sorry not to help more but I have to go for now. ❤

[little magnet]

no worries, thanks for your help

@timber glade Hey Thi. I wasn’t trying to argue with you, i really thought that the ch’s were the same. That’s why this msg of yours really hurt me, i don’t think i deserved such aggressiveness.
“You're not Vietnamese and German native, so don't try to tell me you know better than me”
I would have sent you a pm, but i can’t so I’m writing here, sorry.

[timber glade]

Oh, suzu
I'm sorry if that came across as rude and mean
I meant to say that you're not both at once, not that you're not Vietnamese
Of course you're Vietnamese, I shouldn't be one to say who/what you are
I got pretty annoyed that even though I was trying to help with my knowledge, I was told I'm not right, that's why I said that

I turned off PMs for anyone but friends

I didn't mean do come across that rude, I'm sorry it ended up hurting you :(

I do realise now that I read my message again that it was unnecessarily aggressive and I shouldn't have reacted like that

Sometimes I get a bit too into conversation, may it be becoming really excited or a little bit aggressive, it works both ways o(-< I try to improve myself where I can, so thank you for telling me !!

[hot cloak]

[mild cosmos]

I had a dream that I had a pet crow. when the dream started, I was taking a bath when suddenly a really big crow hopped up onto the edge of the bathtub

[hot cloak]

Thank you, Thi^^

[mild cosmos]

at first I was like "GAH!" but then I remembered in the dream that the crow was a pet

and I got out of the bath and the crow got in, and I gave a crow a bath

for a crow, it was bizarrely cuddly

and the dream proceeded to be a recounting of my adventures with a very clean crow. it was one of those dreams where everything is vaguely unsettling though

as if at any moment the crow would take advantage of me having let down my guard. that it had tricked me into believing I could trust a cuddly bird that should not be so cuddly

[full falcon]

Sounds cool 🤔

[hot cloak]

A cuddly crow sounds super cute^^

[mild cosmos]

it was definitely cool. it had that odd dream quality of being somewhat different every time I looked at it though. by the end of the dream, or at least the end of what I remember, I was starting to think that it was a falcon disguised as a crow because its head and beak were so much different than at the beginning of the dream

[full falcon]

I wish I could remember my dreams

I really rarely do:/

[queen temple]

i don't ._.

Also good morning 😄

[full falcon]

[mild cosmos]

if you really want to remember your dreams you should try setting an alarm for every 90 minutes on a night where you don't urgently need to wake up early, and when you wake up immediately write down what you remember

at least, I've heard that helps. I've never tried it myself

[mellow mist]

Why the alarms?

[mild cosmos]

because the average sleep cycle is 90 minutes, and dreams occur towards the end of that period; since it is often difficult to remember your dreams for longer than a few minutes after they end, you won't remember it if you don't write down every detail you remember

for instance, if I hadn't said anything about the crow dream, I probably wouldn't be able to recall much of it in a week. now that I've written it down, if someone asked me about it I would be much more likely to recall details of the dream

[mellow mist]

Sure thing, I've had lectures about sleep and brain waves in sleep. Only problem about your plan is that, it's not a fixed 90 minute to 90 minute thing, you might not get to that state every single time 😛

[mild cosmos]

True, but you have to start somewhere right? I generally only remember my dreams if I fall asleep again after waking up naturally around 8:00 am; I usually remember dreams that happen between 8:00 and 10:00 am. That's obviously more than 90 minutes

[mellow mist]

I don't think those two are related actually, dreams happen at the last 1/4th stage of sleep, afaik people have a dream journal next to their bed all the time and the FIRST thing they do after wake up (even before checking the phone :P) is to write down the dream

[mild cosmos]

I'm no sleep expert so I can't claim any kind of authoritative knowledge on how/why dreams occur. I'm speaking from what reading I've done on advice for people who want to lucid dream more often and have more control over the dream when they do recognize that they're dreaming. the whole thing about the 90 minute alarms is me parroting one of those things I've read without ever trying it. what I do know for sure though is that if you want to remember your dreams you can work to make it happen

Ooooh you meant Lucid all along 😮 🤔

and Lucid is one thing I can't discuss about because I don't have much knowledge about that 😄

[mild cosmos]

well, I didn't actually mean lucid all along; some of the same advice for lucid dreaming does apply to people who simply want to remember their dreams in the first place though. recognizing that you're dreaming is the first step towards being able to lucid dream, along with reality checking

establishing control of the dream seems much more difficult though. I've been able to lucid dream fairly often; once a month or so. but even then I can't usually do things like conjure fires or spontaneously change the dream setting. it's mostly limited to being able to fly. that alone is cool enough that I continue to try lucid dreaming

@opal sequoia base, help pls! What is an indirect object? Isn’t it just simply stuff in dativ?

[cold vessel]

Not necessarily. Direct objects can be in the dative and indirect objects can be in the accusative

But often, yes

[hot cloak]

I’m confused by this whole direct/indirect stuff now, elaborate pls?

[opal sequoia]

A direct object is an object being acted upon. An indirect object receives this action.

[hot cloak]

I get that. Can you act upon sth in dativ?

[cold vessel]

Yeah

Ich helfe dir

[whole rapids]

as henbri said, the indirect object is typically in the accusative case, but a minority of verbs have it in other forms, such as the dative case

[hot cloak]

Or is the diff with or without a preposition?

[whole rapids]

what do you mean?

[hot cloak]

Like in french

Direct object- no preposition

Indirect- with preposition

[stuck crane]

Je le sais

[cold vessel]

No, Suzu

Ich gebe dir das Buch

dir is the indirect object

No preposition

[whole rapids]

preposition has no relevance to whether an object is direct or indirect

some verbs simply use prepositions in their "representations" of their direct or indirect object, such as "bestehen auf"

[hot cloak]

But in “ich helfe dir” dir should still be grammatically an indirect object?

[whole rapids]

no, it's a direct object. It answers the question: Whom (are you helping)?

[opal sequoia]

A preposition makes a prepositonal object, which is neither direct nor indirect.

It's effectively an adverb.

Rather than an object in the sense of direct/indirect objects.

[lost dagger]

why do you have to make an appointment to get your learners permit once you turn 18?

silly DMV silly California silly cars

[opal sequoia]

@proper shale It's the clock tower at my uni.

[keen snow]

I had my learners for five years l e l

[lost dagger]

Dang

I feel bad that I don't even have my learners while pretty much all my friends have licenses already

but better to do something about it than complain I guess

My appointment to get the permit isn't for another 22 days though 😦

[keen snow]

I hated getting mine, so dont worry.

[opal sequoia]

I had my learners for like 8 years. 😹

[keen snow]

Mine expires

If I didnt get my G id have to start all over again

[opal sequoia]

Oh I see!

Our learner permit lasts 10 years.

For some reason.

[keen snow]

Ours expires every 5, and costs 90 dollars to do so

If you have a G

If not, you take a test too.

Which is over 150 in total.

[opal sequoia]

I see.

G?

[keen snow]

Full license.

[lost dagger]

In California I think we have A B C D and E licenses (?) maybe that's not just California

As well as commercial and non commercial

I think C is the basic license that's not just a learners permit. But I'm really confused

[lost dagger]

scheisse. Es fahren bis morgen keine Busse mehr nach Hause

[hot cloak]

@proper shale yes I’m asian :D

[lost dagger]

Do you guys consider Indians Asian?

Just curious

Because in the US they're not really Asian but in the U.K. they are (as far as I know)

[hot cloak]

No

They might be genetically, but it never crossed my mind

[full falcon]

Why wouldn't they be Asian ? It's not like India is between 2 continents or something ^^

[hot cloak]

Wait, which indians actually? 🤔

[opal sequoia]

India is in Asia.

[hot cloak]

We refer to native Americans as indians too so now I’m confused

[keen snow]

Indians is considered kinda eh.

We just call them Natives.

[opal sequoia]

It doesn't really make sense to call native Americans Indians without some context e.g. you're talking about Western movies. 🤔

I would just assume 100% of the time that it's unspecified that the person means people from India.

[full falcon]

^

[keen snow]

(They also consider it kinda offensive)

[opal sequoia]

Yes. Both of those reasons together are a strong justification for the idea.

[hot cloak]

Well, czech doesn’t distinguish between them. 👀

H: Ich muss dir erzählen, über was ich in dem Autobus gesehen habe!
J: Hast du den Busfahrer gesehen?
H: Natürlich, du Idiot, aber der ist nicht das wichtige Teil!
J: Also, was hast du gesehen?
H: Die anderen Reisenden haben keine Klamotten getragen!
Sounds off> J: Keine Klamotten? Sie sind nackt gewesen?
H: Ja, genau! Die Frau neben mir hat nur eine Zeitung gehabt.
J: Als du im Autobus eingestiegen bist, hatten sie schon nackt bekommen?
H: Ich weiß nicht! Ich hatte mein Handy angestarrt. Ich habe mich zuerst
hingesetzt, dann habe ich aufgeschaut und ich habe sie gesehen.
J: Hast du sie gefragt, warum sie sind nackt?
H: Ja, und sie haben mir etwas gesagt, dass macht sehr viel Sinn.
J: Ja, und…??

here's the original:

H: Hallo, Jakob! Ich bin gerade zu Hause angekommt.
J: Ja, ich auch. Wie geht’s, Hans?
H: Ich muss dir erzählen, über was ich habe in dem Autobus gesehen!
J: Hast du den Busfahrer gesehen?
H: Natürlich, du Idiot, aber der ist nicht das berümte Teil! („aber der“ to refer to the busfahrer in previous line? Or do I have to go with “aber dass”?)
J: So was hast du dann gesehen?
H: Die andere Reisenden haben keine Klamotten getragen!
Sounds off> J: Was? Sie sind nackt gewesen? Es ist sehr kaltes Wetter auch!
H: Ja, genau! Die Frau neben mir hat nur eine Zeitung gehabt.
J: Haben sie nackt bekommen, bevor oder nach du hast auf den Autobus eingestiegen?
Haben sie nackt bekommen, als du bevor oder nach im Autobus eingestiegen bist?
How do i form the sentence like that? ^
Als du bist im Autobus eingestiegen, hatten sie schon nackt bekommen?
H: Ich weiß nicht! Ich hatte mein Handy angestarrt. Ich habe mich zuerst
hingesetzt, danach ich habe aufgeschaut, und ich habe sie gesehen.
J: Hast du sie gefragt, warum sie sind nackt?
H: Ja, und sie hat mir etwas gesagt, dass macht sehr viel Sinn.
J: Ja, und…??

anyone else that might want to help: the bottom one is the original dialog i attempted to write, the first one is the corrected version

[hot cloak]

You didn’t correct anything tho?

I didn’t correct anything there, i just pointed out the sentence with mistakes and then asked you if you wanna try to correct it yourself.

Those two versions are exactly the same, please read everything through next time before asking.

[opal sequoia]

@lost dagger Up to calculus? Yes.

[little magnet]

i did correct things...

[lost dagger]

Coolcool Danke Bees

[hot cloak]

Oh sorry then, Monolith.

All those “>” are places with mistakes tho. Try one more time please. @little magnet

angekommen was right

Strong verbs take the -en ending

Verbs take the last position in subordinate clauses

[little magnet]

can you go over the other corrections i made? its hard to know where to start, where the error is

[hot cloak]

H: Hallo, Jakob! Ich bin gerade >zu Hause angekommen.
J: Ja, ich auch. Wie geht’s, Hans?
H: Ich muss dir erzählen, >über was ich in dem Autobus gesehen habe!
J: Hast du den Busfahrer gesehen?
H: Natürlich, du Idiot, aber der ist nicht >das wichtige Teil!
J: Also, was hast du gesehen?
H: Die anderen Reisenden haben keine Klamotten getragen!
J: Keine Klamotten? Sie sind nackt gewesen?

H: Ich weiß nicht! Ich hatte mein Handy angestarrt. Ich habe mich zuerst

H: Sie haben mir gesagt, dass…

[little magnet]

nach Hause?

[hot cloak]

Yes

Im sorry if i sounded mean, i didn’t mean to

[little magnet]

darn, i thought i read somewhere that zu Hause was better sometimes

thats ok i appreciate your help

[hot cloak]

Zu Hause is at home

So it’s illogical to arrive home when you’re home

[little magnet]

I was trying to say "I just got home"

or "I just arrived home"

still nach?

[hot cloak]

Yeah, i would say nach

You wouldn’t say i arrived at home, would you?

[little magnet]

ok

yeah that makes sense

[hot cloak]

Ok the second mistake is harder so I’ll just tell you

[little magnet]

Ich muss dir erzählen, >über was ich in dem Autobus gesehen habe!

no wait give me a minute lol

[hot cloak]

Ok

[little magnet]

she's letting me re-submit this for an increased grade so i dont want to cheat either lol

ok so i moved habe to the end

because i think its a subordinate clause right?

[hot cloak]

There’s one more thing

[little magnet]

but theres something else

[sudden panther]

"im goin 2 sleep" - soo

[hot cloak]

Hey arrem

I woke up

I’m so sleepy, I’m dying for some more sleep

[little magnet]

im thinking its how im using über, i mean maybe i should just remove it?

thats how i literally translated from english

[hot cloak]

No

[little magnet]

hmm

[hot cloak]

What lvl are you?

[little magnet]

bad

lol

[hot cloak]

kek

I’ll assume A2/B1

[little magnet]

can you give me a hint maybe?

[hot cloak]

But no idea tbh

[mellow mist]

Suzu how many days till B1 exam?

[little magnet]

maybe a2 on a good day

[hot cloak]

Word order?? No idea tbh

No idea how to call it

My exam is on 4/4 eyes

[little magnet]

über moved to before gesehen?

[hot cloak]

Maybe i should actually start preparing for it kek

[mellow mist]

Oh that's close 👀

Mine is on 24/4

[hot cloak]

No, mono

[little magnet]

ugh

[hot cloak]

Lemme tell you? This is kinda harder

Good luck eyes!

B1 when?

[little magnet]

yeah i guess, since i have no idea

[mellow mist]

If I pass that test I'm definitely purpling myself here right when I get dem results

👀

[hot cloak]

Ich muss dir darüber erzählen, was ich in dem Autobus gesehen habe!

kek

[little magnet]

ohhhh

i saw the > and assumed it was only a problem in that second clause

but that makes so much more sense now

[hot cloak]

Ohhh just do it now already you meme

[mellow mist]

Why, I'm not good enough 👀

[hot cloak]

No, this is kinda a weird thing that idk how to name, mono

Sure, eyes

[little magnet]

i must about that speak to you, what i in the bus have seen

lol

[hot cloak]

You should make a club with henbri

[little magnet]

why does it split it like that

[hot cloak]

I muss tell you about that, what i saw in the bus

[mellow mist]

I can bet he's waiting for blue and then a leap from orange to blue right? @ henbruas

[hot cloak]

He’s green now tho

[mellow mist]

he's prolly sleepin so I might as well not ping him XD

[little magnet]

is it because erzahlen and daruber are always paired when used like that?

so they stay in the same clause?

[hot cloak]

He was there during the reading for a while tho

No

[mellow mist]

I was napping while the reading session was going on 👀

[hot cloak]

When you have a verb with a preposition and wanna do a subordinate clause , magic happens

[little magnet]

H: Hallo, Jakob! Ich bin gerade nach Hause angekommen.
J: Ja, ich auch. Wie geht’s, Hans?
H: Ich muss dir darüber erzählen, was ich in dem Autobus gesehen habe!
J: Hast du den Busfahrer gesehen?

suzu how do i learn the german magic

[hot cloak]

Ich erzähle über das Essen.

Ich erzähle darüber, was ich esse.

[little magnet]

oh so if there's a clause, it gets a dar-?

[hot cloak]

When you create a subordinate clause, the preposition gain da(r)

[little magnet]

a second clause i mean

ahh

so the dar is like "hang on there's more coming"

[hot cloak]

Ich denke daran, dass ich morgen aufräumen muss.

Yes you can put it like that

[little magnet]

amazing

[mellow mist]

That's actually an awesome way to describe it LOL I never understood them without taking a look at the textbook in mid-sentence or just skipped it cuz it doesn't add a whole lot of meaning but shhhhhhhh

[hot cloak]

For your sentence, you used the past tense so darüber came before the infinite verb

[little magnet]

wait i used the past tense in that first clause?

[hot cloak]

I think so?

Lemme see again

[little magnet]

lol

H: Hallo, Jakob! Ich bin gerade >zu Hause angekommen.

Ahhh sorry

Modal verb

[little magnet]

ahh ok, same effect tho?

[hot cloak]

Well, it’s the same for the past tense so whatever

[little magnet]

ok

i was worried i unwittingly made it past tense lol

[hot cloak]

No, I’m just sleepy sorry

You understood this right?

[little magnet]

i wish i could sleepy-english as well as you sleepy-german

[hot cloak]

Let’s move to the next thing?

[hot cloak]

Nah you don’t have to

[little magnet]

I was trying to say something like "of course, you idiot, but that's not the important part"

[pine jolt]

I think one is penis and the other is part or something

[hot cloak]

Wut

[little magnet]

"If it has two articles, it’s diff meanings". That's not always true.

[hot cloak]

Das Wichtige sounds better

[lost dagger]

aber das ist nicht...

I think?

What was the context

[pine jolt]

But if its das teil isnt it wichtiges teil

[hot cloak]

Often, base

[little magnet]

der busfahrer was what der was referring to in a prior sentence

[pine jolt]

And wichtiger

[opal sequoia]

Many words are different genders based on regions and dialects.

[pine jolt]

If der teil

[hot cloak]

Ah true

Aber das ist nicht das Wichtige.

Anyways

Base, can you take over please, i really need to sleep? ;-;

[little magnet]

ahh so Wichtige as a noun is just "the important part"

thats so much easier

[opal sequoia]

Oh, sorry, I'm studying. 😦

[pine jolt]

I thought it was wichtig not wichtige

[lost dagger]

it's an adjective magicked into a noun

[hot cloak]

Oh no D:

[opal sequoia]

But you can go to sleep, Suzu.
