Nein. Nur die Kelnerin usw ;)

oh und meine Vermeiterin.

DerPolyglott33

Ich konzentriere mich im Momentan auf Deutsch- u. Spanischlernen.

Das ist besser als nichts :)

drch

ja sicher

wie gesagt, ich spreche immer Deutsch mit Fremde

DerPolyglott33

Ich möchte auch Niederländisch lernen.

drch

Warum!?

DerPolyglott33

Es sieht wie Deutsch aus.

Hihi

drch

Jan 28, 2014 00:04

Lern Schwedisch

weil Mädels

:P

DerPolyglott33

Hihi

Lernst du auch Schwedisch?

drch

Deutsch braucht für mich zu viel Zeit. Vielleicht nach B2 kann ich lerne eine neue Sprache.

^

aber ich mag die deutsche Mädels auch ;)

DerPolyglott33

Ich kann nur Basicwörter wie zum Beispiel hallo, wie geht's usw.

Ja

:)

drch

ja Pimsleur ist gut genug für das, glaube ich

DerPolyglott33

Du solltest eine deutsche Freundin haben. :)

drch

Jan 28, 2014 00:08

gute Idee

DerPolyglott33

Vor Jahren hatte ich eine Freundin in jedem Lande :)

Ich hatte eine Freundin in DeHaan u. sie hat mir Franz. beigebracht.

drch

"voulez vous coucher avec moi" usw? :P

DerPolyglott33

Hihihi

ich glaub ich kenne dieses Lied

Ich habe noch Schwierigkeiten, wegen der Grammatik Franz. zu lernen.

drch

wo wohnst du jetzt?

DerPolyglott33

In den USA.

drch

Jan 28, 2014 00:20

Wo in den USA?

DerPolyglott33

In dem goldenen Staate. Jetzt kannst du raten :)

drch

ah cool. ich komme aus Vancouver

DerPolyglott33

Ich hab Familie in Vancouver.

drch

left coast is the best coast ;)

DerPolyglott33

Warste schonmal hier?

Astrum, servus

drch

Jan 28, 2014 00:27

In Cali? Ja, zwei oder dreimal

Wenn ich jung war

DerPolyglott33

Ich verstehe.

@NevikRehnel Do you think encrypting an android phone really offers any protection against "Big Brother"? Apparently police here would need a warrant in order to search your phone (if it's unencrypted police can search warrant-free). I'm slightly paranoid about it all, really. You've probably already seen the article on reddit:theverge.com/2014/1/27/5350714/…

Apparently whatssapp doesn't actually save anything on their servers, which is nice. Now I just need to encrypt all the data on my phone...

„heil“ hat eh nichts mit den Nazi zu tun. Sowas wie „heil dir“ war üblich soweit ich weiß. Zur Zeit Hitlers und heutzutage aber nicht mehr...

@Astrum Hallo

Astrum

hey there @DerPolyglott33

DerPolyglott33

Wie ist das Wetter bei dir?

Astrum

pretty cold

DerPolyglott33

Axo. Das selbe hier.

Astrum

although today (Tuesday) should go above freezing

I'd really love to know the difference between "handlt von" and "über" used in the context "to be about"

where the hell are the German seers

DerPolyglott33

Jan 28, 2014 07:18

lol

Astrum

wache auf!!!!!!

@NevikRehnel

So, @DerPolyglott33 how do you learn vocab? I'm curious to see other peoples methods. Right now I'm using anki, along with writing the words down on a paper, which I look over throughout the day

DerPolyglott33

Hier ist es : german.stackexchange.com/questions/8496/…

Astrum

It seems like a lot of people use the "learn as I go" method

thanks

DerPolyglott33

by reading books and talking with german people.

writing stories

hihi

Astrum

I usually do that to find words, but when it comes to remembering them, you don't actually write them down?

strange

DerPolyglott33

Jan 28, 2014 07:22

yes i do i write them down

so i wont forget

i study the word order too

Astrum

yeah, sometimes I have an example under the word

and I always mark any particularly interesting uses for it

DerPolyglott33

this is a good website perfect for advanced learners of german

Astrum

"advanced"? I think this site is good for anybody learning, even a beginner

DerPolyglott33

yeah, because the questions that are thrown here are very complicated

Astrum

well, I don't use the site itself, I pretty much stick to the chat

DerPolyglott33

Jan 28, 2014 07:26

and i like the way the natives explain things that's the kind of stuff you dont learn in school

teachers dont go in depth

they just let you form german sentences that's it

boring

Astrum

I've never taken a language class, I wouldn't know

all I know is that I have a friend that took German. I could out-speak him in literally 2 weeks, after he had been studying it for an entire semester

he's not a dumb guy, so that leads me to believe that the course must be really horrible

this was at a uni btw

from an actual German native teacher @.@

DerPolyglott33

it took me 15 years to master german

doesnt bore me

:)

Astrum

dayum, how old are you? I thought you were young...

DerPolyglott33

i started studying german when i was 19

Astrum

lol, I'm 19, cool

DerPolyglott33

Jan 28, 2014 07:30

started with modal verbs

double infinitives

conjuctions

subordinate clauses

do you know your modal verbs?

Astrum

double infinitives... I should probably study those

what do you mean? I know verbs, yeah =D

anki tells me I have 229 verbs in my voab

DerPolyglott33

müssen, dürfen..

wollen

Astrum

yeah

DerPolyglott33

cool

Astrum

I'm not siure what doubles are, though

I've never seen them before

DerPolyglott33

Jan 28, 2014 07:33

in that case you can survive in germany

hihi

Vogel612

@Astrum I am even younger!!!

DerPolyglott33

lol

Astrum

aren't you just a spring chicken...

lol, chicken

Vogel612

totally....

Astrum

vogel

hahaha

Vogel612

Jan 28, 2014 07:34

by the way, today was the First day in this winter, where it really had ice on the pavements.

at least here in Echterdingen (that's where Stuttgart Airport is).

Astrum

is such weather the norm?

Vogel612

nonono

would be terrible if it were..

we had a little snow before Christmas..

but then it was like spring until before one week..

DerPolyglott33

@Vogel612 Servus

Vogel612

flowers blooming and other strange stuff

@DerPolyglott33 Ave, Dominus

@Astrum usually we get snow around new year. sometimes before christmas

Astrum

@Vogel612 can I ask you a question?

Vogel612

Jan 28, 2014 07:36

sure

why else would you be here ;)

Astrum

what's the difference between vorkommen and einfallen? They both could mean "to occur, to happen to something/someone", if i understand correctly

DerPolyglott33

Vorkommen?

Astrum

oh, yeah

DerPolyglott33

There are many verbs that mean to happpen

Astrum

fixed it

Vogel612

Jan 28, 2014 07:38

verkommen --> depraved: (to) degenerate

DerPolyglott33

Wow

Das ist ein neues Verb für mich

Vogel612

fast dict.leo searching ftw

Astrum

cool

DerPolyglott33

passieren, geschehen, vorkommen...

Astrum

so, anyway

Vogel612

Jan 28, 2014 07:39

einfallen doesn't mean to happen

but

DerPolyglott33

Es fällt mir nicht ein

lol

Vogel612

+1

Astrum

that's what I mean

Vogel612

can also mean (to) invade and (to) cave in

DerPolyglott33

That'S the first expression i learned in german class

hihi

Astrum

Jan 28, 2014 07:40

but doesn't that mean "to occur to me"?

O.o

Vogel612

Es fällt mir nicht ein ~~> I can't remember.

Astrum

hmmm

Vogel612

selbst unzufrieden mit der Übersetzung..

Astrum

en.wiktionary.org/wiki/einfallen

so that first entry is incorrect?

Vogel612

nono.. it is just meant only in the second given sense..

Es wäre mir nie eingefallen [...] --> it never occured to me [...]

Astrum

Jan 28, 2014 07:42

so, using it as a past participle?

and Einfall = invasion?

Vogel612

aber auch synonym zu Idee

je nach Kontext

Astrum

that's so strange, but ok

Vogel612

und beidesmal männlich T.T

der Einfall --> the invasion

der Einfall --> the idea

Hitler fiel nach Polen ein. --> Hitler invaded Poland

DerPolyglott33

@Vogel612 Kann man so sagen : Toronto ist eine schöne Stadt. Ich werde im Mai dort hinziehen. ?

Vogel612

Hitler fiel ein, dass er noch [...] --> Hitler remembered he still had to [...]

@DerPoly wunderbar

DerPolyglott33

Jan 28, 2014 07:45

Cool

Vogel612

@Astrum siehst du den grammatischen Unterschied?

Astrum

Yeah

Nevik Rehnel

@Astrum
re: encryption: iunno, im really unparanoid about that kind of stuff
re: R rated question: nope, not in here, SE should be kept PG13

moin :P

thekeyofgb

this is late, but I bet I'm the youngest here

DerPolyglott33

@NevikRehnel Moin

Astrum

I find it contradictory that German are allegedly open about "R" things, yet this chat seems to want to be PG-13, but ooookkkkk

Nevik Rehnel

and why are you guys discussing hitler so early in the morning

Vogel612

@thekeyofgb probably

Astrum

Jan 28, 2014 07:48

I just don't fit in with you classy people =(

Nevik Rehnel

@Astrum germans being open about it doesnt change the ToS of the site and network

Vogel612

@Nevik es ging mehr um das einfallen als um Hitler.. aber da der weiter vorne schon mal erwähnt wurde, kam der mir als Beispiel grade Recht..

Nevik Rehnel

you're welcome to join any irc network im on to talk about that

@Vogel612 :P

Astrum

@NevikRehnel ha, I never read the ToS, that explains it

Nevik Rehnel

@Astrum we've mentioned the PG13 clause on many occasions

Astrum

Jan 28, 2014 07:49

yeah, but you never said it was official

Nevik Rehnel

ah

Astrum

I thought it was some weird unwritten rule here

Nevik Rehnel

maybe @Takkat should make a PSA about that

Vogel612

PSA??

Takkat

PSA?

Nevik Rehnel

Jan 28, 2014 07:50

PSA?

public service announcement :P

Astrum

that Hitler Monty Python sketch was hilarious

Nevik Rehnel

Bekanntgabe zum Wohl der Allgemeinheit

Vogel612

naja naja..

DerPolyglott33

@Vogel612 Kann man 'einfallen' mit 'überfallen' wechseln?

Vogel612

im sinne von einmarschieren schon

DerPolyglott33

Jan 28, 2014 07:51

Axo

Takkat

all the Stackexchange network is PG-13 - we should have seen this on registering.

Nevik Rehnel

@DerPolyglott33 hat aber leicht andere Konnotationen

DerPolyglott33

Deutschland überfiel im Jahr(e) 1939 Polen.

Nevik Rehnel

@Takkat do you know how long ago that was :P

Astrum

@Takkat I seriously don't think I'm the only one that doesn't read the ToS

Takkat

Jan 28, 2014 07:52

@NevikRehnel if feels like forever

Nevik Rehnel

@DerPolyglott33 Deutschland überfiel Polen, aber die deutsche Armee fiel in Polen ein.

Takkat

The age limit on registering is 13

Vogel612

@Takkat is that even legal in Germany?? shouldn't it be 14 for germans??

DerPolyglott33

@NevikRehnel Ich verstehe.

Nevik Rehnel

@DerPolyglott33 note how one has two entities of the same size scale, while the latter has a much smaller entity invading an area

Takkat

Jan 28, 2014 07:53

Auch jüngere Kinder dürfen auf ins Internet.

Aber gewisse Seiten werden evtl. gesperrt.

Vogel612

(message deleted)

Takkat

Wir möchten nicht, dass SE zu diesen Seiten gehört.

DerPolyglott33

@NevikRehnel Ich sehe den Unterschied :)

Nevik Rehnel

:)

Takkat

Allerdings gibt es Unterschiede, was man in DE oder der USA als ungeeignet für Minderjährige empfindet. Wir müssen uns an die Regeln für die USA halten.

Oooooh I wish I were a pirate on the oooocean

Nevik Rehnel

yarrr matey

Astrum

I'd be such a cool pirate

Nevik Rehnel

ha

Astrum

and so much rum

I think the pirate life-style is pretty BA, tbh

DerPolyglott33

Jan 28, 2014 07:58

@Vogel612 Ist das Verb "Einfallen" das selbe wie "s. erinnern" oder?

thekeyofgb

einfallen is like occur to

Nevik Rehnel

indeed

Vogel612

hey guys, did you read the conversation???

Astrum

it appears he strolled in late

take a seat, chap

Vogel612

we had that already. it can mean invade and remember...

but also cave in

all depending on context ;)

DerPolyglott33

Jan 28, 2014 08:00

@Vogel612 Kann sie wechselzeitig verwendet werden?

Nevik Rehnel

@DerPolyglott33 einfallen ist transitiv ("mir fällt etwas ein"), sich erinnern ist reflexiv ("ich erinnere mich"); wenn erinnern transitiv steht ("er erinnerte mich daran"), heißt es to remind someone

Astrum

stoßen is like... a moar violent form of stochern, right?

Vogel612

wenn die bedeutung die richtige ist ;)

wuaaaaa

stoßen --> push

DerPolyglott33

@NevikRehnel Axo.

Vogel612

stochern ~~> stab

Nevik Rehnel

Jan 28, 2014 08:01

@Vogel612 a weird version of repeatedly stabbing, you mean

Vogel612

@Nevik darum tilde

DerPolyglott33

Ich stoße mich gegen den Tisch

lol

Vogel612

keine gute idee..

Nevik Rehnel

das tut doch weh!

Astrum

Der eine stößt den Speer zum Mann
Der andere zum Fische dann = doesn't that mean "to stab"?

DerPolyglott33

Jan 28, 2014 08:02

awwch

Vogel612

@Astrum we don't use spears in germany...

but if you stab with spears, then it also means stab...

Astrum

I'm confused...

Vogel612

I don't know the correct english verb..

Astrum

yeah, you stab with a spear

that's a stab

dammit

Nevik Rehnel

that's a google link that no one likes :P

Astrum

Jan 28, 2014 08:05

Nevik Rehnel

@Astrum lovely "spear"

@Vogel612 auf deutsch übrigens ein Hieb

Astrum

yeah, I actually typed in "spear stab" too

Nevik Rehnel

mit Speeren und Schwertern ~~hiebt~~ führt man üblicherweise Hiebe aus

the verb is hauen, past tense hieb

Vogel612

aaaaaaah PARENTHESE! おねがいだから

Nevik Rehnel

lol

DerPolyglott33

Jan 28, 2014 08:09

astrum, how do you post pictures here?

Nevik Rehnel

m.E. mit Speeren auch Stöße

@DerPolyglott33 just paste the url

with nothing else on the line

Nevik Rehnel

hmm umgangssprachlich auf jeden Fall

i cant think of anything more formal right now

Wie wär's mit Hochdeutsch how about in standard german?

Ok :)

Vogel612

er betreibt Judo (eugh)

Nicht treiben??

it's funny how it's more natural for me to talk english on the internet

when i dont pay attention, i slip back into english

nope

Nevik Rehnel

DerPolyglott33

@Vogel612 Wieso betreiben nicht treiben? :)

Vogel612

Jan 28, 2014 08:29

1337 p10x.

treiben should work too, but for me it sounds a little odd. Sport treiben, aber eine Sportart betreiben

Nevik Rehnel

indeed

DerPolyglott33

@Vogel612 Danke! Du hast mir das Leben gerettet.

Nevik Rehnel

<--- imagines @DerPolyglott33 being held captive by a weird villain who requires him to answer language questions in order to survive

Astrum

how do you ask someone how they're doing, with concern?

DerPolyglott33

@NevikRehnel hihi

Nevik Rehnel

Jan 28, 2014 08:37

@Astrum what kind of concern

Astrum

health, well being

like "how are you holding up" "you're ok? "

Nevik Rehnel

"Geht es dir gut?" with appropriate concern in your voice

Astrum

that sounds.... weird to me

Nevik Rehnel

why

it just means "are you all right?"

Astrum

even if the person is visibly not good? like, is somebody is in the hospital, and you know they're not "alright", but you want to know how bad they're doing, you can ask "how are you holding up"

DerPolyglott33

Jan 28, 2014 08:40

Geht es dir besser?

Nevik Rehnel

@Astrum there's about a hundred ways to ask it. it depends on what exactly you want to express, on the situation, on how well you know the other person etc

Astrum

that sucks, no simple answer. What a surprise

Nevik Rehnel

"Wie geht es dir?", "Geht es dir besser?" are the most general ones

just like in english, dozens of variants though

Astrum

ok

I think Steven Hawkings is off his rocker

that guy is getting loony

somebody needs to bring him in before he does something stupid

Nevik Rehnel

haha

he's probably right about the black hole stuff though

i dont put it beyond him

anyway, i gotta get going

uni -.-

Astrum

alright, see ya later @NevikRehnel

Nevik Rehnel

see yall later

Astrum

Nevik Rehnel

what's a good way to say "to affect"? As in "the unrest could affect our plans" @Vogel612

Vogel612

affect im generellen ist beeinflussen

und (negatively) affect ist beeinträchtigen

Astrum

that's a rather large difference

Vogel612

@Astrum die Bedeutung ist auch ziemlich anders ;)

Astrum
