That's about all I remember from a year of high school Deutsche, but it's the most important phrase you can learn.

In Bavaria, if you can say that as well as the above, you're practically a native. ~;)

Schwäbisch Tube, mi favorit. Fempf halbe sen so viel wia a schnitzel, ond dann hosch emmr no nix dronga.


And haggis of course.

I speak a little bit of german, was born close to germans, lived close to them and so on, it kinda comes naturally when you have contact with germans now and then.

I have to agree with Husar. I didn't choose but I was also born amongst Germans, so German comes naturally for me nowdays. Though it could have been different was I not born here, but somewhere else.

But as it is, my German is fluent. ~;)

Immersion is the only way to learn a language. I spent last year in Germany with a German host family and now I'm basically fluent. Though that doesn't mean I don't mess up my grammar (articles and such) occasionally. It's a fun language, if you really really want to learn it head to Germany and try to learn German there. It's really the only way to do it. Plus it's lots of fun.

Two years of German in secondary school has taught me... nothing.

Still, apparently I will get an A in GCSE for German according to my teacher, even though I still don't get the basic 'die', 'der' and 'das', in tests I just guess :sweatdrop:. (How should I know which is masculine or not???)

Eh got a 770 on the German SAT II by basically guessing/knowing a few and I never formally learned the articles, they aren't horribly important to being understood. This was before my first ever German class, German V last year after my trip abroad.

Unfortunately, learning a foreign language in addition to English is required, so yes. Nothing wrong with the language, but I didn't choose to learn another language. :whip:

Und ja, ich muss meine Blattlause geknülen.

Yes you did. You could've taken one of the other extra classes instead, like more english or norwegian :whip:

Was that geknülen or geknülle?

It doesn't make sense either way, not your two options, and neither does the sentence with any of the available options. "Geknülle" makes a bit of sense like that, as a nomen instead of a verb, but not useful for the sentence either.

Wenn Sie sagen können, was "Blattlause geknülen" bedeuten soll, kommen wir vielleicht weiter, Herr Viking.

I've been taking German at nightclass for three years now. Heaps of fun - so going to Germany isn't the only way to learn it. I'd say in addition to nightclass at Dudley College *shameless plug*. Seriously, been real fun.

Of course, I'm not fluent or an expert yet.

Indeed perhaps? Then again, maybe it has to do with knülen as used in Swedish or Norwegian, but that doesn’t seem to make much sense, either.

Jawohl, Herr Ludwig der Dicke spricht fabelhaft Deutsch und werde hier eine neue, umfassende Perspektive in der Philosophie, welche die Diskussion bis ins 21. Jahrhundert maßgeblich beeinflussen werde, geknülen, dar das Slachsteitertum und flieren oft als steifer gegründet an einen mäßigen Tagesablaufwaffenkönscherkünstler dargestellt wird.

I'm pretty certain I could not; because then I would (more Norwegian is definitely not an option anyway, and thank God for that). :inquisitive:

Oh, ich meine zerknüllen. Entschuldigung. ~;) Vielleicht es kein Absicht gemacht, aber nichts ab mein Deutsch macht, sowieso. :clown:

(some of those words are fresh out of the dictionary ~;))

Haha, that's indeed why I choose that particular verb, though the sentence is lovely random. Blattlaus is one of the first words I checked in my dictionary, also.

Right,

Vik, I figured you weren't telling the world about your 'schoshi chingos.'

Genau das was in meine Post hat passiert, ist was mich immer passiert. Jedes Jahres denke ich, na kommt, lese ich mal Kant oder etwas im original Sprache, auf Deutsch.

Und, die erste zwei oder drei Minuten geht's fabelhaft. Aber dann...dann kommen die verdammte Deutscher immer wieder mit al dieser unbekannter Wörter...immer neue...immer längere...immer wieder... ~:mecry:

Don't worry, German is not the easiest language to learn, I guess.

If it makes you feel better, your German is waaay better than my French and I have been studying that for quite some years in school. ~;)

Ja, wirklich gar nicht so schlecht für einen Franzosen.:grin:

Ich hatte vier Jahre Französisch in der Schule und das einzige was ich gelernt habe ist "Je ne sais pas." Das war nämlich meine Antwort auf alles. Aber zu meiner Entschuldigung muss ich sagen, dass die Lehrerin auch echt bescheuert war.

Auf jeden Fall wünsche ich allen noch viel Spaß mit dem Deutschen, und wenn ihr eine Frage habt, könnt ihr mich auch jederzeit fragen. Hatte in Deutsch immer gute Noten. Aber das liegt vielleicht auch daran dass es meine Muttersprache ist.:smiley:

I hate to tell you Warman, but what they speak in Switzerland...that ain't German. ~;)

Yes I speak a little german but I really have to think while speaking it, english and french comes much more naturally.

Sprecken ze doiche?

I'm not even sure if that is German...and even if it is it wouldn't be any use to me :laugh4:

Pah, even I know that:

Sprech Sie (or sie, one of them refers to 'formal' you and the other refers to she, right? :sweatdrop:) Deutsch?

:bow:

(That's how far 3 years of studying German got me :devilish:)
