ermph..
@Takkat lies!
also.. would you mind not having activity when I am not here?
 
8:32 AM
@Vogel612 na ja, du bist so selten hier ;)
 
@Takkat nicht wirklich..
 
Hallo und guten Morgen :)
 
Guten Morgen auch dir..
Ich habe nur nicht immer wenn ich hier bin einen Tab für diesen raum offen..
 
für meine Tabs bräuchte ich einen 2m breiten Monitor.
der hier ist ein 20" 4:3 Monitor... da wirds eng.
 
Ich versuche immer mein Zeug übersichtlich zu halten..
aber manchmal braüchte ich das auch..

@Takkat Hallo!

9:29 PM
@Takkat Hallo! I'm here again!
Are you?
 
@TimTimmy Hi me too :)
 
@Takkat It's great to have company! I'm a little confused on the existing rules for Radfahren. Are the words split up now?
Thanks in advance
And what about Radgefahren ?
 
there is the noun "Radfahren", the verb "radfahren" and then there is "Rad fahren"... that is confusing, I admit.
 
@Takkat so for the perfekt, you would say radgefahren?
Because I remember my teacher telling me that they were split up
 
but the verb radfahren is not standard... so if you forget about this it becomes all easy.
 
9:33 PM
de.wiktionary.org/wiki/radfahren - here it says that it split up
 
it just leaves das Radfahren and Rad fahren.
 
:( I put all of my faith into it and it has backfired against me
 
it may have been deprecated by the last orthography reform.
(not sure about this, but Wiktionary said so)
this may be interesting to you: canoo.net/spelling/radfahren:V:sein:Old-Obs:N+V
 
@Takkat I see. So when you say, for example, Am Montage bin ich Rad gefahren, can the Rad be moved to earlier in the sentence if you added something
I'm trying to think of an example...
 
it then needs an article.
 
9:37 PM
There: Wir sind gestern Rad gefahren.
could gestern be put after Rad? e.g. Wir sind Rad gestern gefahren?
@Takkat Does it matter where "Rad" is in the sentence? Or is it treated like the verb?
 
Rad sind wir gestern gefahren, nicht Auto is possible
It matters - it is used like a separable verb but Rad is capitalized today.
Mit dem Rad sind wir gestern an den Bodensee gefahren.
 
I see, well thanks for clearing up the confusion
 
@TimTimmy this would actually make up a good question for the site!
 
@Takkat I'll ask it then!
@Takkat So Rad is treated like a separable prefix?
 
if you ask you may mention this: german.stackexchange.com/questions/5045/… but tell people it did not help.
= research effort ;)

@Takkat Thanks! here:

Q: Why do some dictionaries have Rad fahren and others radfahren? Is Rad a separable prefix?

Tim TimmyIn Collin's dictionary, when I search for Rad fahren, it comes up with: http://www.collinsdictionary.com/dictionary/german-english/radfahren However, radfahren is not on http://de.wiktionary.org . They said that reforms changed the verb radfahren to Rad fahren. Then why is another famous diction...

 
looks good to me, now lets wait for the commentators... ;)
 
@Takkat I look forward to reading your amazing answer.
 
oh - recently I only answer if there was an incomplete or wrong answer... all other times I let others gain the rep :)
 
@Takkat well that's kind of you ;)
 
sometimes I answer after there were close votes on questions I personally would not want to be closed too... :P
But this does not always help much :"(
 
9:54 PM
@Takkat But is the fact that several questions are asked instead of one bad?
 
@TimTimmy it is the general rule on SE but in this case I think it is so much connected that I can't see it to be two questions.
 
@Takkat Thanks for all of your time. I appreciate your dedication to helping me
 
@TimTimmy yw :)
 
@Takkat btw, can you use "regnen" in the perfect? Does it make sense to you?
 
@TimTimmy you can: es hat geregnet and es regnete - both are possible, the first is preferred in spoken German.
 
10:09 PM
Thanks again!
 
time to go to bed for me - Good night :))
 
Good night! Gutten nacht!
