    Die Regeln sind schlimm genug, aber die Ausnahmen sind schlimmer!

    The rules are awful, but the exceptions are worse!

    @messieass @qwertzalotl my post blew up a LOT more than I anticipated so I’ve already got a German workout this morning! 😁

      Do you like cartoons? There are some very funny German cartoonists in the Fediverse, where you can train your German in a funny way by reading the cartoons.
      e.g. @fernandez @ralphruthe

        @lerxst I'm trying to learn but it's my first ever second language and it's a complex one as you know. I've been reading the zeitung and seeing how far I can get before reaching for the translation, but that's basically doom scrolling.

        Btw not in any way what you were asking but best German teachers online I've found so far -

          @lerxst Ich poste auch meistens auf Deutsch, aber reposte auch Englisches.
          Ich mag auch gerne andere Sprachen und Tandems und hatte auch schon mal eine Brieffreundschaft nach USA. (Ich mag analoge Post.)
          Falls daran jemand Interesse hat, sag Bescheid 😉

              @andijah Danke! Ich schreibe und produziere auch Musik. Meistens ist es eigenwillige elektronische Musik, aber hin und wieder mache ich auch Ausflüge in die Orchestermusik und Filmmusik.

                    @FiestaBun Nothing wrong with that! Just don't expect me to speak any Finnish, or understand it. I'll follow you anyway!

                      @FiestaBun I heartily approve of silliness.

                        Moin Moin, Hans! Wie bist du?

                        Ich gehe am 20 Juli zum Rush-Konzert nach Chicago! Ich lebe jetzt in Michigan und lasse die Hitze Arizonas hinter mir.

                        The nearest Stammtisch is in Grand Rapids which is a little far to go regularly,

                          My German has gotten rustier and rustier since my mom died nearly 10 years ago. At that point, she was my last living German-speaking relative. It is getting harder for me to read and forget hearing it at this point.

                          Anybody out there have interesting and not too heavy German language first Fedi folks they follow? Bonus points if they don’t mind interacting with someone whose German language skill sucks?

                          @lerxst I'm late to the party, but if you want to listen to German (short) stories, beautifully read by a native speaker and for free, go to www.klausgesprochen.de (@klaus) Enjoy!
