    At first it annoyed me slightly but I’ve noticed that I can understand most of them without having to use a translator, so now it’s just free language practice. And deciphering memes is decidedly more fun than taking a course.

        Tangendeutsch heff ik ja noch nie höört aver dat geiht ja noch. Dat klingt hollt meist bloot temlich swacksinnig. Wat seggt denn eerst bi zB Plattdeutsch.

        Edit: Zangendeutsch habe ich ja noch nie gehört, aber das geht ja noch. Das klingt halt meist bloß ziemlich schwachsinnig. Was sagst dann erst bei zB Plattdeutsch.

        I’ve never heard Zangendeutsch before, but that’s still possible. It just usually sounds pretty stupid. What about Low German(Plattdeutsch), for example?

      Ich im echten Leben.

      They take English and translate it word for word in a very literal fashion. It’s very difficult to understand for regular Germans because you kinda need to know the original English sayings to make sense of it.

      If it helps: “Tisch” is table in German and Feta is a greek cheese. => Feta + Tisch = Fetisch, but actually “Fetisch” has a complete different meaning on its own (eng.:“fetish”) so its a play on words. Thanks for coming to my TED-Talk.

    Ich habe vier Jahre auf Deutsch gelernt, aber mein Deutsch ist sehr schlecht.

    Honestly, I couldn’t even remember if Deutsch was feminine, masculine, or neuter… but my pronunciation has always been spot on at least. I should just pick it back up, it’d be mostly vocab grind for me at this point. But I last learned years and years ago… dang, almost 18 years now.

      Articles in German make no real sense honestly. Deutsch is neuter, but since it’s mostly an adjective the article is that of the accompanied noun. The German language is female, the German court neuter and the German football field is male (the stadium is neuter though)

    Good choice. Nobody who speaks German could be an evil man.

    As a side benefit, you will also be able to converse with Kim Jong-un, Vladimir Putin, and Robert Terwilliger.

      In many cultures, it’s common to grow up with 3-5 languages. Learning them as an adult is much harder tho
