How I Study German 🇩🇪📚 (Resources + Tips)

[@randomreads2]

idk why German is so easy to forget. I forgot 4 months worth of German after a TWO WEEK break...lol

[@elyssedavega]

Hope Ouapou you’re so right 😭 that’s why it’s always on weekend maintenance when i study other languages!

[@VishalSharma-mj2lv]

😅👍yeah, so (atleast) keep listening smthn in German

[@daphneam3571]

Same experience... Due to some obligations I needed to take a pause from Deutsch for about 6 months. Before that I reached almost B2 level. After 6 months when I decided to continue I've realised that I forgot almost everything... So I've started from the beginning... It is not literaly that I forgot everything but most of the things YES.

[@anna84259]

Umm Idk I continued learning German after a 3 years break, and while I think I forgot it mostly, it's still a lot easier to relearn, plus sometimes words & sentences just randomly pop out of nothing in my head.

"Lucky one"? I hated grammar when I was young but now I understand that grammar is a foundation of forming sentences. Does that make me lucky? NOPE, Just get your ass on internet or any book and just simply brainstorm than even youll be able to be the "lucky ones". Its so sad how people just negelect other peoples efforts and attribute it as "being lucky". Thats so immature.

I'm not English, that's why my English isn't good, I'm German. I just wanted to say that I know that German is a difficult language. I have a hard time with English, although it is an easy language compared to German. But I'm always impressed by how enthusiastic people are about my mother tongue. A tip for everyone who wants to learn it, read books, try to integrate German into your everyday life and don't be afraid. Everyone in Germany/Austria will be impressed by your language skills, whether you have problems speaking or an accent. What I personally find very funny is that almost no German knows the right grammar, so don't stress yourself too much, it's not bad to make mistakes.

[@Vlog1cal]

regarding the outdated grammar book: I think it should be fine for the most stuff, but there have been some changes it the last decades mostly to when words are divided by a space or not and whether some words are written with a capital letter or not. Additionally there were some attempts to standardize spellings of words using s, ss or ß. As far as I know these are the mature changes (there are also a lot of minor changes once in a while), so it should be still fine using it for most grammar, but be aware that some words use old spelling/grammar rules.

"what's the difference between Einsamkeit and allein sein" - That caught me off guard :D I didn't expect anything so poetic at this point.

[@keanudutado4127]

Well, first off "Einsamkeit" is a noun and "allein sein" is an adjective. So im gonna explain you that with the adjective form of "Einsamkeit" which is "einsam". If someone is "einsam" that means this person is (almost) constantly alone and thus have a bad feeling resulting out of this loneliness. If someone is "alleine" that means he is physically alone at a certain moment. I come from Germany so you can believe me that im right.

[@amarYsium]

I recently graduated from university with a specialization in Middle Eastern Studies; Minor in Arabic. I wouldn't say that I'm advanced after taking 3 years of Arabic, but I'm continuing my education in it. I was recently told by an instructor of mine that he would not consider me a novice Arabic speaker anymore so that made me feel good that I'm progressing. I think you nailed it here with what it takes to level up so to speak in language learning. It honestly takes a bit of time. After I attain higher levels of Arabic(Superior to near Native) then I would like to tackle German!

Grammar is the only exciting thing about learning German! Seriously.. I go to german courses, I’m finishing A1 soon but I already went through the whole grammar on my own (I aced the irregular Partizip II test we had recently in class). I do struggle with vocab and speaking.

danke schön!!! ich bin Französisch und ich habe Deutsch gelernt für etwa 8 Jahren aber ist mein Deutsch nur sehr schlecht! I’ve been trying to work on it for 1 year now and I’ve kinda got better but I still need to learn a lot. I love this language so much unlike many people!

i hope you‘re fine with me correcting you(?)🥺 [ich habe Deutsch für etwa 8 jahre gelernt, aber mein Deutsch ist nur sehr schlecht.]

The whiteboard idea is genious honestly!

[@sarahbruton6608]

Hi! Do you have any tips on developing the correct accent? I find this helps me in learning languages (vocab especially). I've had a hard time in how I should pronounce my words, and since I've studied French/Danish I'm finding it even harder to make a distinction between my Danish/German speaking inflections, accents, pronunciation, etc

Very interesting video! Many thanks to the author of the channel for the recommendations! The problem with many people is that they want to take a "magic pill" or get "secret knowledge" and immediately have skills and abilities. However, the truth of life is that knowledge, skills, and abilities do not come by themselves. You can't learn a foreign language without doing anything, without wasting your time and effort, just like you can't learn to ride a bike lying on a comfy couch, listening to lectures and watching videos about "modern methods of learning" on a bike. To really learn something, you have to really practice every day. You're going to fall down while you're learning, and you're going to get bumps - that's normal! The ups and downs of learning are an integral part of our lives. Motivation from success and depression from failure will always be your study companions. However, every student has problems in his or her studies that he or she lacks the knowledge to solve. It can be: poor memorization of words; no progress in language learning; the student can speak, but does not understand speech by ear; misunderstanding of grammar; incorrect pronunciation, etc. Agree that a problem you don't know how to solve is very demotivating. In order to find the answer to our question we have to spend a lot of time to read videos, articles and books by polyglots. In today's world, we have to solve problems as quickly as possible. I don't have time to study and analyze a huge amount of information. My goal is to master the basic knowledge of a foreign language as quickly as possible and already start earning money effectively in the international arena. I settled on the practical guide by Yuriy Ivantsiv " Polyglot's Notes: practical tips for learning foreign language". This book is always in my bag. If I have a problem while learning a language, I quickly find the answer in this book. There are many different techniques and tips for learning a foreign language in Polyglot Notes. I have made my own individual schedule and plan for language learning. Now I know what I am going to study, how I am going to study, when I am going to study and what results I am going to achieve. No problem could stop me! With an effective language learning plan my professional skills are more and more in demand internationally every day. Friends, don't stop there! Everyone has talents that millions of people around the world need! Learn the language and make your ideas and dreams come true! Thanks to the author of the channel for the informative and useful video! Your videos motivate me.

"What's the difference between "Einsamkeit" and "Alleinsein". Simple things like that." (7:48) Also, als simple Frage würde ich das nicht bezeichnen :D It could get quite philosophical or psychological there. But I really liked the video! Viel Erfolg! :)

Wow, i just found your channel and you give me so much hope! I love how down to earth you are too :) Wish we could just hang and learn together haha! Thank you so so much for all of your tips! The internet is overwhelming as i learn German! This seems much more helpful! xoxo

Tomorrow I'll translate one song from French and one song from German into Swedish (my native langauge). Great idea!

Hi, something funny , the english translation in your video says "Maybe you idiot" @8:50 when you talk about the podcast in German 🤣🤣

"How to actually study a language video" Elysse: Don't use Duolingo This video Elysse: I do Duolingo

[@Anuaiyer2]

Honestly, She's right. Duolingo doesn't help you learn the language effeciently, but it's good for practice. Especially now that they've introduced Duolingo Stories. That's interesting to keep you motivated and assessing the basic knowledge of german language.

[@SuperFiretruckyou]

German black metal is great, if you really want to embrace the "agressive" guttural sound of the language. Waldgeflüster is a great band just period but also to learn from since the use both clean and distorted vocals

your german is better than my english and i had lived in the usa for 5 years!😂🥰💕
