    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?

        @independentpen @lerxst

        The translations get published on this wiki (among other places).

        The original German sources are linked at the bottom of each page - although they are in 19th century German, and usually written in the Fraktur typeset, so they are not exactly texts for beginners.

                  @carstingaxion @lerxst ...Little World. But you have to live in Germany to get a conversation partner. Or you can just join the group calls. See https://little-world.com

                    @lerxst if you are interested in books and writing and life in general you could follow me. I post in German and/or English and if you don't understand something you can ask me for a translation or explanation. I'm glad to help.

                      @lerxst don't know if you're interested in my toots, but I am German and have been working with people from all over the world for years, so I have a good feeling for how difficult German is 🙂 will boost your toot, of course.

                            @lerxst Since I've stopped going to work in Germany, my German has gone from very bad to even worse, I mean it's still not as bad as my Welsh.. So I'm going to hop on and follow some of the other suggestions in the replies below.

                                      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 German here. open to any connections (penpalling?). also, some of the suggestions are good (TV, easy language etc.) . Plus if you have netflix, there is a ton of stuff you could watch in dubbing (or even original) or with subtitles. and with and some without VPN (darned geoblocking9) German TV online. if there are topics you are particularly interested in I might be able to give you some ideas

                                          @lerxst Hi Ludwig, schön, dass Du an Deinen Fähigkeiten festhalten möchtest. Es wäre schade, sie verfallen zu lassen.
