things i like abt the german language as someone trying to learn german

-words are pronounced exactly the way theyre spelled

-english is germanic, so many words are similar enough that u can easily figure out the meaning jst by looking at the word (Milch=Milk, Buch=Book, Bruder=Brother, Schwester=Sister, etc etc)

-other words are just word+word and german is so Literal with naming shit so if u know some words its easy to kinda figure out what smthng means (Handschuhe = literally, “Hand Shoes” = Gloves)

-vocabulary is So Easy to remember bc of these above 3 points like frfr

things i hate abt the german language as someone trying to learn german

-GENDERED NOUNS can die (DER DIE DAS)

-DECLENSIONS are AAAA (DEN DEM DES)

-CONJUGATIONS as well are horrible (especially PAST TENSE VERBS and literally every conjugation of the verb WERDEN) (its so HARD to remember and understand)

-PLURAL VERSIONS of nouns are so DUMB (it makes NO SENSE)

#ok tbh i understand declensions in Theory but im so bad at remembering the gender of nouns and also sometimes i just dont knowww #like especially genitive case makes NOOOOOOO sense to ME im so stupid!!!!!#I GET NOMINATIV AND AKKUSATIV BUT GWAAUURGH #if u ask me why its Eines Tages then erm i cant tell u. ive tried to read theory and i Still Dont Get DES. and GENITIVE.#like i think instinctually i know WHEN to use it Welches Eines Dieses….#but if u asked my Why its DES and not like just DER or DAS like i literally dont know i cant explain man #but uh other than that uhhhmmm. hmm. i think i just need to be better at rmbring gender for nouns… im so Bad…. TT #it’d help my declensions thing a lot of i jst rmbrd #Past tense conjugations r so fucked up tho i alwahs just forget tbh fhdkdd #Same with WERDEN I HATE WERDEN WÜRDEN WIRST WIRD DIEEEEEEE #Worst Verb Ever…#but past tense is Fucked i always say smthng like ich habe duschen …. NO U MORON… ITS GEDUSCHT!!!!#or ich habe Pizza essen… IDIOT!!! ITS GEGESSEN!!!!!#ok im just complaining in the tags german is actually very fun to learn #language #languageblr #german #.txt
