aspiratee?
I forgot one reason I thought about learning swedish was the retroflect consonants
There's a slight puff of air according to wiki ipa
hmm
before the filled in consonant?
You're asking about what? Swedish or Icelandic
Icelandic
Oh, I don't know what filled consonants are
Ah... thats post aspirated, but like the p in pie
the p in spy is lightly aspirated
I wonder how this sounds, but I can pick it from listening to them make full sentences
What will you use to learn it?
I think it's advised to reach at least B1 in a language before starting another
I think I'm borderline B1 in German, but this is a very "I think"
Like, maybe not even close, but it feels like it(maybe)
But yeah, I agree
So I'll probably wait
It's very tempting to start a new language though. And just listening to icelandic I want to learn it.
Yeah lol
And they can read the original Edda stories quite easily
Because it's so concervative
Thanks though!
Will it be of benefit to know in Sweden?
Do you have interest to head to iceland?
Is there an icelandic discord?
Not that any of that in necessary
I mean, I think there's an icelandic discord
And it's generally cool for origins of words etc
There's like a discord for everything it seems, well languages anyway
Like, it's very close to norse
And therefore it's generally interesting for history and origin purposes
Ah, like learning latin or something
Pretty much
But easier from my position
cough German is preferred in this channel cough
You'd be surprised @cobalt lake. This channel once had a chain of hi's that lasted for like 2 days or so. At one point we had the bot automatically remove everything that's not a hi.
The message that started it all was even pinned until SOME STUPID IDIOT @hot cloak deleted all the pinned messages for no good reason. 😒
😔
Am Anfang ich dachte, dass Arrem sein Nachricht hmmm... pinned hat
you could be like me
try to learn other languages and learn how to speak a basic conversation
and then move on
😃
Oh, I see. I was wondering about that pin lol
I thought #german-only was the superior greet channel, oh, how wrong I was
@fossil nova hey dear, what’s the difference between getting drunk on, of and from sth? Can you say all three of these?
i'd only say the first usually
wait make some sentences so i can get the sprachgefuehl
i'm not sure
The second would be getting drunk off, not of, just as a note.
I would say you can say them all but the tone is different.
^
there's also drunk with but that's different
like google gives the example drunk with patriotism
but obviously you wouldn't use that for alcohol
or at least not here
Getting drunk on is common, getting drunk off is also common but sounds more ... casual/informal in that "intentionally sounding bad" way, getting drunk from would normally be used with an action rather than a substance in my opinion.
Or something like...
getting drunk on wine
getting drunk from too much wine
I agree with that ^
So maybe to say it's an action isn't the most accurate way.
But you could also do that. Getting drunk from spending too much time with Potet.
I hope that's a compliment. 😄
👀
but yeah, well explained Base
Danke.
I see, thanks guys! 
No problem, you were still being lovely

@nocturne frost @rich hatch lidorally no guests since 11 so I’m just dancing bachata and salsa by myself here lol
@hot cloak I am not sure whether it sounds more lonely, cute, sad or beautiful (süßu dancing alone sounds like a beautiful vision lol), but in any case have ❤ 🤗 and head pats (no emoji for that sadly)
I don’t feel lonely, just having a bit of fun rn :D but thank you lovely dani ❤❤

:peepopat:
lmao have fun
Ever tried lindy hop or other swing dances? @hot cloak
Idk any of swing dances 👀
Look it up, its pretty fun especially if you are into jazzy retro stuff xd

Gestern habe ich eine Stunde Kalimba Musik geschaut, und andere Stunde um mich zu entscheiden, was würde die beste Kalimba zum kaufen sein

bin ein Bisschen überrascht dass es so wenige Pins hier gibt
aber ich finde es lustig, die einzige pin in dieser Kanal ist einfach "HI"
@peak burrow @nocturne frost btw, i started noticing when people do the white people smirk since you guys told me about it and i find it damn funny cuz i really do see it basically every day at work lol
jetzt
@nocturne frost be proud of your heritage smh, the smirk is part of our culture

what is white person smirk
Did suzu just steal from me without giving credit smhing my head
Yes. 💁
@hot cloak lmao now I don't know whether I do it and I feel embarrassed
I do it proudly
I didn’t know people did it until like last week 
As well as the nod, up for friends and down for strangers
Is it like 😐
Damn mami, you so white, you blind my eyes
Is that a smirk?
Me irl
The nod works differently for me because it has linguistic significance in Sicily. Guess that makes me non-white
@peak burrow lmao
I like the nod and ive seen my asian friends do it aswell
To me those faces just looks like the face people make when they're in a bad mood or weirded out or annoyed, like a facial expression version of a sigh basically.
They obviously are weirded out by Asians then
Is that a joke?
No
Maybe
It’s true, can confirm
You can confirm that they do it because they're weirded out? How?
She asked them
Wow.
Exactly
I guess at least the people where you live are pretty honest then.
That's not a smirk 
That's the half-hearted smile
When youre in reality not at all happy about it
Yeah, that's also how it looks to me. That's why I was curious about it as well.
I dont use it as a smile tho
I’ve only seen it as a not very successful greeting smile so far
It can also be a sign of General acknowledgement
Oh, if people are using it as a greeting with strangers, I guess I do find that a bit weird.
With non-strangers it wouldn't seem weird though.
I think you'd see it used for coworkers and the like
Like the coworker situation seems like an obvious scenario for it. You're acknowledging with your coworker that work sucks.
Yeah okay not a smile, but as an expression of being discontent. I've never used it as a greeting 🤔
I think the last time I used it was when someone else told me what work I had to do
Perfect situation
I acknowledge what you just said but I'm not super happy about it
Yesterday, some guests came to the restaurant and said: hey white smirk
Then I would assume they are unhappy about being there
^
@hot cloak hey one vegetable stick please 😐
They were probably gonna complain but then they saw you suzie
damn, a compliment out of nowhere
I think people also do it when they're nervous though, right?
@arctic atlas hey 30m of fibre optic please 😐

When are you actually going?
Dani is the judicial capital of the Ukraine
Ein name einer stadt

All these people and their love for cities smh my head
Im not named after the City tho
Oh, is the city named after you?
Damn mami

Hallo !
Wer ist Deutsch/Franzose oder English da (oder anderen Nationalitäten) ?

Neugier*? Is Kuriositat a word?

Ja x)
Ich denke
Ah, cool
It's Neugier
'kuriosität' ist mehr wie 'a rare curiosity (referring to object)'
Ok ich verstehe... Danke ^^
Nix zu bedanken 
Ahh, thanks hecke
Sind die Voice-Channel sehr benutzt ?^^
joa, aber eher abends
Toll !
denkt ihr dass ich ein Buch lesen kann, wenn ich heute fünfhundert Wörter lerne? 🤔
Je nachdem welches Buch du möchtest lesen...
ein deutsches Buch
Ist es ein Buch fur Kindern oder Erwachsene?
gute Frage
Personliche, ich lese nur Buch wie Unkel Dagobert (Uncle Scrooge) oder Asterix
Das ist einfacher ^^'
(aber bereit schwierig ! )
hmm, ja. ich werde etwas finden
Was liest du normalerweise ?
größere Bücher als Kinderbücher lol
auf Englisch oder Niederländisch
aber mein Deutsch ist schlecht, also 😧
vielleicht kann ich dieses lesen
Deutschlands führende Nachrichtenseite. Alles Wichtige aus Politik, Wirtschaft, Sport, Kultur, Wissenschaft, Technik und mehr.
die sind immer schön. nicht echt schön, lol, aber du weißt was ich bedeude
oh, hier

guckt jemand eurovision?
im also ashamed of performer for my country
So I wish you "Bienvenue"
Schaust du grad ESC ?
ein bisschen
ok
tja das letzte mal dass esc legit war war als die lordi gewonnen haben, jetzt ist irgendwie alles politisiert oder wie auch immer man das sagt
ist schon wieder esc?
Wahrscheinlich wirds 🤔 Ich weiß auf jeden Fall dass es in Österreich gerade läuft. Aber nagut, ist ja nur das Semifinale für das sich keiner interessiert.
stellt euch vor es gäbe etwas wie eurovision aber für remixe und covers, das wäre furchtbar
Puuh. Nein danke. 
Diese Emojis
und
vermisse ich sehr oft auf anderen Servern
Die passen einfach so gut zu vielen Situationen lol
Mach ich, aber die bringen das nicht ganz so rüber wie die Grafiken
:^) erinnert mich immer an :')
also mich erinnert :') immer an :^)
die reaktionen in discord sollten mindestens drei mal so groß sein wie jetzt, oft kann ich nicht ein emoji als reaktion auf die posts erkennen, ich seh es nur deutlich wenn es als selbstständig gepostet ist
zb die reaktion die ich jetzt auf den post oben aufgeklebt hab kann ich nicht erkennen was es bedeutet
du kannst auch einfacher discord selbst größer erscheinen lassen. Das ganze lässt sich in deinen einstellungen ändern
Ich glaube, dass gute Reaktionen trotzdem erkennbar sind.
Ja, wie diese!
(Er, please correct me if I'm messing up. My German is no good.)
How do you say i love you in german
Ich liebe dich ❤😍 @faint yacht

One thing i really like about regensburg is that it takes just 20 min walking to get home from a club in the downtown
That is going to chaange im vienna
Anyway good night laddies
Ye mammi
Good night lady
Bye
Yeah, one thing i don’t like about vienna i guess 
Night atomic
Sweet dreams atomic :3
Thanks Suzu, but I'm not going to sleep and please don't call me Atomic.
in vienna its 20 minutes by tram lmao @strong whale @hot cloak
if you're going to choose one thing to hate let it be the racists 
But do trams drive at night
20 minute walk wtf that's like 500 kilometers.
Depends on your definition of "night".
well, no s-bahn from like 1am-4am
buses go on a 'night bus'schedule and the u-bahn and tram come less frequently iirc
Idk about trams but U-Bahn is a dead boy from midnight to 5am.
oh damn really?
I swear I remember travelling once at 1am
maybe it was a night tram 
In prague, u-bahn is dead from 1am till 5am that’s why I’m asking lol
well, I guess we''ll have to find out when we go clubbing suzulein 
gerne
Oh apparently I just picked a bad day to be outside.
"Die Wiener U-Bahnlinien sind Freitagnacht, Samstagnacht und in den Nächten vor Feiertagen 24 Stunden in Betrieb. Die Züge verkehren in 15-Minuten-Intervallen."
But yeah on all other days they're dead from about midnight to 5am.
Cool, no problems with clubbing then
LPT: you don't have to worry about trains if you just party at home.
LPT2: for a successful home party, bring math textbook instead of alcoholic beverages, then study together with your friends
LPT3: hokk do garden
You did???
Arrem in a club? I’d take a photo
I went to a club once. It was horrible.
did you :DDD
Well I guess it sorta counts lmfao.
I was 14. Primary school trip to Hungary. "guess what we're going to a club"
"can I please just stay in the hotel"
"no lol"
:peepycry:
They trained me to avoid clubs and do science. It worked. 
also
school trip
Bully.
I can't help it I just get the instinct to take your lunch money everytime I think about your glasses face

hello guys
servus grizz mis
so those fucking idiots at DEW21 can't program a simple registration form. The field for the date of birth says TT.MM.JJJ but whatever I enter in that (or any other format) it gives an error
i even tried the american and japanese formats for dates, just for the memes
and they're the ones providing electricity and gas to most people at least around here.
luckily no bad programmer can be hired because they are extremely picky with the CVs they select :^^^^)
it's probably not the same form because mine required the contract number
this one?
seems so
nope, https://www.dew21.de/mein-konto/registrierung/
yes, thats the one I linked minus the DOM element
well what in the world would make a perfectly valid birthdate fail
not sure, what error do you get at the top
"Der Geburtstag ist ungültig"
lol
yeah
double check your input, maybe theres whitespace at the end
i like quintuplechecked it
i even emptied and reentered it
i tried with slashes instead of dots
it's definitely just a simple regex because things like these work for me
well that's even weirder then. I was ready to accept they simply brute-forced if blocks with every possible two, two four digits combination in existance and simply forgot the one i need
how glorious would that be if true omg
but if it's a regex i really have no fucking idea what may be causing this
because it's not like it's a weird day like 29 of february
it is a month before 10 though
but i tried both with and without the leading zero
this is so fucking weird
you could try and intercept the POST call. Mine seems to be fine
at this point its probably easier to just call someone
for the record, i tried entering a bollocks date and it still doesn't work
i'll try from another browser
could be an extension or plugin
open your dev tools, go to the network section, resubmit and find the registerwhatver form
so those fucking idiots at DEW21 can't program a simple registration form
Offer to remake it. Bam a job and a better form.
and an instant refusal because "you don't have an ausbildung, how do we know you know what a keyboard is"
On topic of silly regexes, my parallel computing lads made a meme in the script that you use to generate a tarball to submit your code and it would just generate an empty archive if you had the word "project" in the folder name. :^)
yeah found that nully. The request seems to be fine
lmao how did they manage that
last thing i could think of trying was disabling the adblocker but all it did was take longer to load the same error
fucking 
i'll try with my husband's computer
even though we'll have to use his phone as hotspot just for that
They tried to make a thing that ignores whatever IDE's bookkeeping files which are in a directory named project, but they memed.
ok even from my husband's computer on a different fucking connection it doesn't work
and a different browser too
you know how there are a bunch of natives on this server that help out? well are there any servers for germans learning english so that english natives can help as well?
it's not very active though
it's pretty active atm
i keep an eye on the questions channel and try and help people out when i'm free
maybe it's a different one than I am thinking of
servers for learning languages is fine
it's a bit of a cesspool in the main chat but i think it's probably useful in some ways
Banned.
UNLIKE OUR MAIN CHAT HAHAHA
lol
Nvm unbanned, we're banning horse instead for that statement.
jeez that's the biggest server ive ever seen
lol
you havent seen the fortnite server
we're not far off from that tbh, getting close to 11k
how many of those 11k are active i wonder 🤔
🤔
well I have 10k alts so technically all of them 
That's some dedication. Do you write every single post by yourself or do you use AIs?
That moment when you're the only other person between Hecke accounts though.
no, hecke owns all the 10k accounts that never send any messages
but since theyre heckes accounts the person behind them is technically still active
the people who are actually active here are not hecke
i'm not sure they count as active accounts

@brave swift Btw Karen, #introductions is just to say hello and introduce yourself. You can ask questions in the other channels 👍
i did one
I am considering doing one too, was it worth it?
i think so
@minor epoch im doing one and i love it, but it all depends on the teacher and the group you get
if theres like 15 people, Sprachniveau differs a lot between people, and the teacher is not that good at teaching its a waste of time
but if you do it in a small group of 3-4 motivated people you can learn alot
@shadow kernel Thanks for the information. could you recommend an institution where you're taking it? I looked at one that has 12 people per group, but there is a test that sorts students according to their previous knowledge.
Also, what duration would you recommend? I don't think I could afford more thank two or maybe three weeks.
can't answer that question really, im doing it in some kind of private school and arbeitsamt is paying for it
i have 4 people in my group, mine is 3 months, 2x a day, its almost 10 hours per day
@minor epoch .
Oh wow that really is intensive
yea but its for doctors, there's 4 of us in the group and we want to push the language asap to work again
but for the Kurs to have any positive outcome you need to go home and learn another 4-5 hours per day, repeat stuff and do extra
in my opinion
Yea, thought so. I'll see if il do mine, because people seem to agree, that it's only worth it if it for a much longer time
these 2 week ones are good if you're getting ready for an exam
like these intensiv C1 vorbereitung kurses
where you simply do exam simulations
Hm yea
It's not for a test do, just to upgrade my German and live there for some time to get to know the country
but a whole kurs worth of 2 weeks isnt really worth it, but then every person is different
and that's my personal opinion
Yes yes, obviously. I think I agree too
unless its 2 weeks solo work with a teacher where you have a list of things you want to push through and understand better
like focusing on some parts of grammar you don't understand, training your pronunciation or something
well yea but solo work is expensive af
which niveau are you?
Working torwards TestDaF 4, which i think is between B2 and C1
You can learn quite quickly by yourself.
If you don't have a specific reason for the courses, honestly it's not worth the money anyway.
^
exactly that
unless you're stuck somewhere where you have no clue what to do or what to improve
Like as said, if you have to prepare for an exam by X date, sure, you might not want to gamble solo-learning. But you can probably learn as fast as an intensive course on your own if you're disciplined in studying each day.
then a few hours are imo good, just for the teacher to assess your skills and point you further
That's what this server is for. @shadow kernel 😏
Thanks for the advice guys 👍
i went to B2 Kurs at Goethe Institut, there were like 15 people or something in the group, with quite random levels, and it was a huge waste of time
Np. Make sure to make a lot of use of #questions , #beginner-german , #writing , etc since it will help you immensely to improve.
alltho they all passed B1, in practice i learned a lot more at home simply doing my own stuff
went there once in a while with prepared list of questions just to clear some stuff
so yea if you want to learn the language and use it properly 90% of learning takes place at home, paying doesn't make it any faster if you lack the determination to push through the language on your own
yeah the most german i've learned in one go was one summer i had off just studying by myself
but then you also need to speak
like, a lot
that's the tricky part of learning alone :p
Any suggestion on how to do that?
Vahti, do you already have a doctor degree?
doctor as in PhD? nope
a licence, yes
So you're working at a praxis atm?
nope
i worked for a year back in my country
then i moved to germany, and now im getting my licence back
or more like, getting a german licence
got my last exam on 28.07
or 27?
tell her to learn the language if she wants to move here
depending on her field she needs either a solid B2 or solid C1
solid B2+whole vocabulary that comes with medical field to pass her exams
I’m also curious about speaking :P @shadow kernel
I don't know, i simply got myself a german girlfriend and then married her
seems like the easiest solution :F
lmao
but I guess that's not a solution for everyone (':
Speaking in discord with natives was the solution for me, tho you gotta be hard on them and remind them to keep speaking in german @pallid kindle
And i agree with vahdi - language courses often give the illusion of being able to reach b2/c by doing the bare minimum
Thanks for the tip 🙏 @hot cloak
Also avoid small-talk like how are you doing, where are you from etc. - discussions are the best for learning
no its cute
But cursed
I liked the spaghetti
I'm coming to steal your tv
Gott sei mit euch, zusammen

@arctic atlas @plush kraken @rich hatch bought 4 Pfefferbrezen und 2 Käsebrezen - I’m ready for the trip!! 
die hättest du doch schon gegessen bevor du auch nur bei uns angekommen wärst 😔
@hot cloak that's the most important part yes
Far more than silly stuff like documents, tickets, money and phone
Nice snack
@arctic atlas I’d leave you one Pfefferbreze tho!
@rich hatch i always have my phone with me
money and documents? Depends i guess

@gusty rock brexiters say the EU is unreasonable to them and that the UK has to shell out some millions of pounds for something that i forgot, that brexiters dont want to spend. and also that immihrents can come thru EU ountries and steal their jobs. i think that was a concern too
i read it a while back so i dont remember correctly.
but them pulling out has already cause a loss due to businesses leaving. which is greater than what the UK was shelling out earlier to stay in the EU or something like that.
obv its more complicated but thats the gist of it
Do I smell politics outside of #german-only ?
also, non-german politics
get the pitchforks

but it should be vice versa: politics in #general-2 and none in #german-only
no since the politics is only meant for learning purposes
ok what about this: create a separate channel for politics, also for memes, movies/tv/cartoons/anime, food&drinks, sport, music, games etc, preferably in a new category. this is what the spanish/english learning server did and it works great!
we do have the hidden group 🤔
Sports is only allowed in general
and if erik is present only motorsports is allowed
You wish. 😏
#archived-media is the unofficial memes channel tbh
Please don't encourage the misconception of #archived-media as a meme channel. It's already bad enough.
not that I would want one but what is the reason behind there not being a meme channel?
memes: the whole server is a giant meme
