I've learned English since primary school, though I wasn't very good.Then I've started playing games in English, watching videos in english, talking with greenies and stuff and I became excellent :V

I've also learned spanish but I stopped since I've started college.

A lot of people here said they were surprised I speak a fluent english because I'm french, which means I'm meant to suck at it :P

When you are typing Deutsch, don't forget to add random capitalized words in your sentences every now and then.

German basics are quite easy to understand, but when you get deeper in the grammar of it, it will blow your mind.

Word that end on en are infinitifs (like to wait) can be used when the action is not directed to someone. Without en are those ones which are told about a person you are speaking to, or if you talk about yourself.

Also, with en can usually be told about someone else (He, she, it).

I hate french :V Sorry bro (And I disagree, German is harder than French imo)

I'm curious as to how you non-English fluent English speakers know an incredibly wide range of vocabulary...Are there any special techniques that help you remember words etc? It's really amazing....worryingly so! tongue.gif Hopefully I can use some for some speaking exams I have to do... wink.gif Thanks.

French sounds more romantic but it depends on your taste, if you like big dominant women wearing lederhosen German sounds more appropriate.

HELGA :gmod:

All righties,

Listen up student !

I got some basic stuff here for you: How to make correct German verbs and the first case which is 'Der Nominativ'

Let's start with 'Der Nominativ'

What you can see on this part is a German explanation in which cases you should use 'Der Nominativ'

You'd use 'Der Nominativ' when your word is the subject of a sentence, a salutation or if it's an object after the verbs:

to be !Sein!

to become !Werden!

to stay Bleiben

to appear Beweisen

to seem Aussehen

There are three other cases in German which you will learn later (when I learned them XD)

------You can take a 10 seconds brake------

Now, what is special about this case ?!

You have 2 groups in German which each other outputs.

You got the 'Der-Gruppe', the output the words of this group is R when it's male/ E when it's Female/ S when it's neuter/ E when it's Plural.

and the 'Ein-Gruppe', the output the words of this group is nothing when it's male/ E when it's Female/ nothing when it's neuter/ E when it's Plural.

Thank you for your attention,

tomorrow we will do possesive pronouns and the verbs!

If you got any questions ask them tomorrow,

Viel Spaß mit studieren (A lot of fun with studying)

Greating Math.

P.s.

German for dummies;

Every noun is written with a capital

If you use a double s = ss it will become ß
