I agree, wordlists are a helpful and good idea. 3nodding (A noun list would be excellent, I still get confused, and I'm in German 3!) xp

I agree with AhJeong about teaching all the cases to beginners at once - too overwhelming, especially the genative. I saw a class of third year German students learning about genative and practically the entire class had blank stares as to what the hell was going on. I, myself, still get confused with the genative case. And accusative and dative shouldn't be taught until the students have a grasp on verbs that require those cases. Beginners really should just focus on learning the nomitive case, sentence structure, vocabulary before they have to worry about when and how to use the other cases.

Anyway, I just popped in here to ask if I had some broken-ghetto German going on, wasn't sure where the ******** this should go, but thought this might be the best place. I got bored and sleepy during my math class and started writing in German this free-verse poem... thing, I don't know. Can anyone just read it over and tell me if there's anything wrong with it?

Ich habe dieses violette Opium
und habe Glücklich zerstören
Die Dame steht im Zimmer und spricht,
dass sie dich in Rot liebt
Und Bomben fallen von dem Himmel
in meinem dunklen Alpentraum
Ich weiss, das ich bin meine eigene Zerstörung
Aber das ist, wie es in meinem Alpentraum ist

There is a german comic book that teaches German for real life usage. The swearing has been limited to 1 or 2 words.

Um... Could I have sentence order please? xP

I only know survival German... And that the verb is second... but which object comes first in German, Direct or Indirect?

(Sorry if this is a dumb question, I'm a beginner! sweatdrop )

It's called "Oxford German Comic-Strip Vocabulary Builder.

Typically, what I have noticed is the indirect object comes first.
I.E:

Ich gebe meiner Mutter die Rosen.
I will give to my mother (the) Roses.

Indirect objects can also begin a sentence.

Meiner Mutter gebe ich die Rosen.
To my mother will give I (the) Roses.


I'm not positive, but I think indirect objects go first.

hey how do i know when to add the umlaut?
PostPosted: Thu Jul 17, 2008 12:24 pm


The "Umlaut" can be used as a normal letter, for exemple in "hässlich" (ugly), Käse (cheese) or Öl (oil) and then, you don't know when to use it.
But it can also be for some forms of plural or "small words"

Haus (house)
Häuser (houses)
Häuschen (a small house)

Blatt (leaf)
Blätter (leaves)
Blättchen (small leaf)

very often, nouns with an "a" are formed like this.

I thought this would be a good thread to drop this site in.

Here's an online German course I found on the DW site. The site also has a bunch of other resources for learning German. It's like an international news agency based in Germany that reports on German news, world news, and all things German. The main site is available in like...30 langaues. It's really cool site, so check it out. smile

Here's the link to one of the courses.
