Life is too short to learn german :D
Hallo!
I've deleted memrise and am strictly learning German through these memes, I'm confident I'll be fluent by the end of the year.
The only true way to learn languages is pull up yomitan and anki. The most powerful language tools man has to offer
Every now and then I just save the German memes and send them to my English group chats to make sure they're confused too.
Right? I think they're underestimating the comedic value of dropping a half understood meme in an American group chat.
At this point I'm just being stubborn not learning it.

It's frustrating because I don't know German. I still click the links every time.
Und das ist gut so!

Enschuldigung aber mein Deutsche ist schelcht. Lemmy im inglisch bitte?
Attempt at translation:
Excuse me but my male female German person is bad. In the Inglish please?I'm sorry but my German is bad. Lemmy in English please? (Translation)
The Trump regime is rightfully infamous for their major crimes. But like any villain, they commit crimes both major and minor.
Among the minor crimes of the Trump regime is that I as an American can no longer tease Germans about the Nazis.
Cool dude?
more like 'i need to block the german communities'
and a few canadian ones that just speak french
That moment you finally understand German and realise all the Stör and Tisch memes are just simple word plays.
stört es dich?
Nein, so störrisch bin ich nicht.
Nun.
the odds of you learning
Germana 2nd language are slim if you're honest with yourself.set you language and block feddit.
Fediverse mods have announced an agreement to adopt English as the preferred language for communications, rather than German, which was another possibility.
As part of the negotiations, mods at lemmy.world conceded that English spelling has some room for improvement and have accepted a five-year phase-in plan. In the first year, "s" will be used instead of the soft "c". Also, the hard "c" will be replased with "k". Not only will this klear up konfusion, but komputers will need one less letter.
There will be growing kommunity enthusiasm in the sekond year when the troublesome "ph" will be replased by "f". This will make words like "fotograf" 20 persent shorter.
In the third year, akseptanse of the new spelling kan be expekted to reash the stage where more komplikated shanges are possible.
Mods will enkourage the removal of double letters, whish have always ben a deterent to akurate speling. Also, al wil agre that the horible mes of silent "e"'s in the languag is disgrasful, and they would go.
By the fourth year, peopl wil be reseptiv to steps sush as replasing "th" with "z" and "w" by "v".
During ze fifz year, ze unesesary "o" kan be droped from vords kontaining "o", and similar shanges vud of kors be aplid to ozer kombinations of leters.
After zis fifz yer, ve vil hav a reli sensibl riten styl. Zer vil be no mor trubls or difikultis, and employes vil find it ezi to kommunikat viz eash ozer.
Ov kors al supliers vil be expekted to us zis for all busines komunikation via DaimlerKhrysler.
Ze drem vil finali kum tru.
Zat isn't quit enugh to fix english. "Gh" kuld be replased wiz 'f' vher it vuld mak sens and ze same viz 'x' to "ks" & 'y' to 'j'. Vhile duble leters as used nov shuld be simplifid, I think it kuld be useful to mark long vovels by using tvo of the same leter. Vhile zis vuld help a lot, ze most important shange I'l sugest is to use vovels that reflect ze pronunsiation. Vhen juu vant to vrait "smorgasbord" juu vuld insted vrait ze moor sensibl "smöörgoosbuurd". Sadli, inglish is a horibl bodg of a languig, meid bai miksing vai too mani diferent languiges, so moor fikses aar veri velkom.
This whole thread is glorious. (Also did your autocorrect put up a fight or did it completely give up trying. I'd love it if this is how we fight AI in the future.)

the odds of you learning a 2nd language are slim
Tell me you're American without telling me you're American.

The odds? It's not a random chance event; people can just start learning German whenever they'd like to, if they want to!
I have learned it for a few years as 5th language

I (edit) actually think it’s a good idea to learn it. Knowledge gives people power to advocate for themselves.
The German CCC have been saying some awful stuff about me (Canadian). I have smi and autism and have been a recipient of abuse for a while due to not being a brogrammer right out of the gate upon joining Lemmy. I can’t help noticing a few of the people responsible just happen to be German users. One of them was called out for astroturfing a post alluding to my mental health issues and disabilities.
Just gonna leave this here. Might delete later. Or maybe it’s a matter of discussion on the meta Lemmy thing. I’m open to talking about it if anyone wants to, or if anyone has experienced similar algorithmic creepy stalking-flavoured bullying.
I am sorry to hear that. Do you mean the chaos computer club with CCC? In my experience the CCC is incredible accepting and welcoming for everyone no matter who. I hope you give them another chance, they do important work.
Are you saying the CCC as an organisation has been targeting you as an individual by publicly defaming you?
I find that very hard to believe.
