@matrix @jackc i wonder what you sound like

@matrix @EnjuAihara @jackc imagine having to learn this

@igelsQTs @jackc @EnjuAihara You are German.....

@matrix @igelsQTs @jackc deutsch ist einfacher.
man weiß einfach was für eine form man benutzen muss.
ig its the same for you in czech.

@matrix @igelsQTs @jackc @EnjuAihara
I like how you just stated that, like it's an universally acknowledged fact that being German sucks ass.

@alyx @matrix @igelsQTs @jackc @EnjuAihara lets just say i have experience with germen

@matrix @jackc @EnjuAihara yes, and?

@igelsQTs @matrix @jackc @EnjuAihara Germans are based

@Matt @igelsQTs @matrix @jackc @EnjuAihara >said the kiwifarmer

@igelsQTs @jackc @EnjuAihara German has a shitton of rules you have to learn

@matrix @jackc @EnjuAihara I always forget about the different endings depending on gender, but we dont add them to foreign words really like slavs do. But you do have a point, even if nobody cares here when you get it wrong.

@igelsQTs @matrix @jackc @EnjuAihara i've been learning German for a couple years now, it's fun as hell but yeah y'all language is complicated as fuck, but i enjoy it

@Matt @igelsQTs @EnjuAihara @jackc @matrix why do you think it is complicated?

@Tropical_Paradise @EnjuAihara @igelsQTs @jackc @matrix mostly the word order. still kind of hard to get used to compared to my already retarded view of English

@Matt @EnjuAihara @igelsQTs @jackc @matrix ah do you struggle with the conjunctions?

@Tropical_Paradise @EnjuAihara @igelsQTs @jackc @matrix nah conjunctions are fine, what i'm hung up on is the weird word order. like one of my lessons was "das Sandwich kostet wirklich sieben Euro"
"The sandwich costs really 7 Euros"

I know there's rules to how it works i just have a bit of trouble adjusting i guess lol

@Matt @matrix @Tropical_Paradise @jackc @EnjuAihara you can do many variations that all seem fine to me
das sandwich kostet sieben euro, wirklich
Sieben euro kostet wirklich das sandwich
Wirklich, das sandwich kostet sieben euro

@igelsQTs @matrix @Tropical_Paradise @jackc @EnjuAihara so i can be a little more liberal with it and actual Germans such as yourself wouldn't really care as long as i knew what i was talking about?

@Matt @matrix @Tropical_Paradise @jackc @EnjuAihara Yes you can. Never listen to any teacher. They all have autism.

@igelsQTs @matrix @Tropical_Paradise @jackc @EnjuAihara ok cool. I wanna visit Germany one day(that's where my family is from) and i didn't wanna sound like a retard lol

@igelsQTs @EnjuAihara @Tropical_Paradise @jackc @matrix unfortunately it sounds like you have a bit of disdain for the more Northern Germans and that's where my family hails from lmao

@Matt @matrix @Tropical_Paradise @jackc @EnjuAihara I think of them like scots think of the english. If that makes sense to you.

@igelsQTs @matrix @Matt @Tropical_Paradise @jackc fuck south germans
with their weird dialect and green police cars

@igelsQTs @EnjuAihara @jackc @matrix i know there's 3 levels of language classification, and German is the only one on level 2, which is pretty neat

@Matt @matrix @jackc @EnjuAihara freut mich das zu hoeren! 😄

@igelsQTs @matrix @jackc @EnjuAihara sehr based

@Matt @igelsQTs @matrix @jackc
>not saying basiert

@igelsQTs @matrix @jackc @EnjuAihara i hope to be fluent hopefully SOON but man it's a crazy ass language

@igelsQTs @matrix @jackc i do
i hate when my dad says das laptop or die nutella

@EnjuAihara @matrix @jackc then youre autistic. I tell german learners to jsut not give a shit and do it by feeling, cuz thats what germans all do anyways.

@igelsQTs @matrix @jackc ofc im autistic
but my dad has been speaking german for over 40 years so he should get it right
when someone learning german does it then its cute ig

@EnjuAihara @matrix @jackc the genders vary depending on dialect, and even age group. Yes, older people say "das laptop" and younger people say "der laptop". It makes no sense so WHY CARE

@igelsQTs @matrix @jackc @EnjuAihara i always thought Germans were particular about their language like the French are? or am i just being American and believing something i heard lol

@Matt @matrix @jackc @EnjuAihara I grew up in cities and if id go around trying to correct every person id not do anything else in life.

@Matt @EnjuAihara @jackc @matrix also we have many dialects here and if you "correct" them they just laugh into your face and call you a dickhead

@igelsQTs @matrix @jackc @EnjuAihara i think the version i'm learning is called Hoch Deustch

@Matt @matrix @jackc @EnjuAihara schools etc only teach standard german which is derived from hochdeutsch (high german) because it's from south germany. North germans added their low german pronounciations and then became the prussians and now rule us so thats what we use.

@EnjuAihara @matrix Já jsem Čech jako poleno / I'm as Czech as a log :-D
... with a weakness for Japanese cars ;-)
