Guten Nach.

Has to be Gute Nacht, but your german is very good.^^

I'm from Germany. Originally I come from Trier, which is at the border of Luxembourg, so they speak kind of a mixture of german, french and flämisch. The I moved to Wiesbaden, which all the Americans here should know, because of its US Hospital and now I live in a small village in the Westerwald (an area in the middle-west of Germany, with beautiful landscape).

That was actually my fault. sweatdrop Since Prince had said something else. I said it would have been that for good night.

That's awesome! Though, I've actually never heard of Wiesbdabe.
A village? Does everyone know everyone there? biggrin
lol

No prob.^^ At least it's understandable and that's the most important.^^

Awww, I mistyped it. Damn my fast typing style. It has to be spelled Wiesbaden.

Almost, yes. XD It has two even smaller villages combined with it and all together we have a population of 2.000.

[Prince Hi-chan]

I was also extremely tired at the time, though I probably wouldn't have typed it correctly if I was awake. XD Haha, still am. XP

I made so many mistakes in typing last night that it's not even funny. <3

On that note, I think I might take another nap. ^_^;;

Edit: Rei, we really need to brush up. D: A whole summer of not speaking German has gotten us rusty. ;-;

Even so I don't think I've heard of it. D8
Then again I don't know a lot of things as it is. XD

Wow! That's not very many people. I wonder how small the schools must be.

The schools might be pretty large. o.o Maybe they have like a few small villages going to the same school.

Kind of how we have smaller towns go to a county school.

my brother wants to sell german chocolate to the yanks to become a millionare.
oh and it's "Ja, ist es!"

[Prince Hi-chan]

*snickers* Rei made a mistake that she rarely ever makes. XD Haha. Thanks for the correction Nenenin. <3

I can't believe she did that, it's about as bad as me typing night as "nach".

>.> Anyways, that amused me greatly.


German chocolate sells pretty well over here!~ >.> Though sadly it is not as popular as hersheys. D: x3

I love German chocolate, it's pretty rich!

~~~~~~

I'm so glad people are correcting us! It helps us learn. x3

Gut, danke, und dir?

ohh thanks, I'm awful speaking German, but I'm making the try xD
I hope to talk like a real German one day

I know you both know a lot of German, I can feel it, I started with this just last week

ohhh any clue about the grammar? it's the hardest that I've seen in my life!!

Our German teacher was a really fun guy. He made the grammar really easy somehow. We had a bunch of little songs and stuff to remember the articles and possessives, and we remembered all the cases via superheroes. (Ah, the adventures of Kid Nominative and Accusative Man, and their days throwing verb footballs into Verb Hell, where verbs never ever return from. Except for once when one did.) It's not so hard if you can figure out what all the stuff is in English; most of the rules are the same, and German just has more conjugations. You've gotta write all those down and keep a handy dandy Verb Bible like we did. (See, I remember all sorts of fun things ABOUT German...just not how to speak it. XDD)

One thing that helps is when your language teacher shows you how a grammar point is used instead of telling you about it. My second German/Japanese teacher was a 'tell'er, and my first German teacher and my first Japanese teachers were 'show'ers. (For example, I don't know what the heck a 'gerund' is, but if you show me that it's an -ing verb, then I understand, since I use -ing verbs every day. If you show us what it does, then we learn faster...especially since they really have stopped doing serious English grammar lessons in schools. gonk )

ohh thanks, it's a great option to learn it, but I don't sing really good xD and yeah I0've seen that German is like English in some words. I'll try to learn the verbs first and all that stuffs, vielem dank!

[Prince Hi-chan]

Yay for English being a Germanic language. 8D

It's too bad that it didn't become the United States official language when it had the chance. ;-;

[immortal_yoh]

well English, German, Italian, French, Spanish, and others more, all them come from Latin

Hallo!

Ich heiße Emily und bin sechzehn Jahre alt. Dieses Jahr wird mein fünftes Jahr in Deutsche Klasse sein. Ich bin Amerikanerin, aber ich fuhrte nach Deutschland vor zwei Jahren. Ich liebe Grammatik, und deshalb kann ich Leute, die Grammatik nicht verstehen, helfen. Ich will Deutsch studieren, als ich an der Uni bin.

OMG! I can't believe I missed that.
Thanks for pointing it out. lol

Not everyone likes chocolate though. D8 Might be because Hershey is fail compared to Milka.
I would think German chocolate would have a better market here if it was commercialized more though. :/

Who do you mean by yanks?
