Hallo zusammen, haben wir villeicht eine Gruppe auf Matrix, damit wir unser Deutsch üben können? Es wurde auch hilfreich, wenn wir reden können. LG

Just seen somewhere else and thought, it might fit here as well.

Hi everyone, I am looking to improve my German. I understand quite a bit by now but my spoken language is still child-like (I am somewhere B1+). Reading has always been something I enjoy. That being said: any (good) books you could recommend that are written by German-speaking writers and are "easy" to read? Just to say, I am not looking for children books - I need to be engaged with the story to read it. Thanks!

Ich habe mich heute auf Lemmy angemeldet. Gibt es ein App für Lemmy?

The SayHi translation app (from Amazon) has been discontinued as of 8/5/24. My existing install no longer works, and the app is not available on the stores. The app main page just has the discontinuation notice, but no explanation.

I still have DeepL to fall back on, but had found SayHi to be a good alternative. I miss it.

Does anyone know why this was discontinued? Any idea if Amazon is expected to release a replacement?

Any suggestions for a replacement? What has worked for you?

When I was learning English, listening to music (mostly rap) helped me A LOT. Now that I'm learning Deutsch, I thought I would do the same. I really like the song "Hurra die Welt geht unter" by K.I.Z. but not so much their other songs. I was able to find "die fantastische vier", but it was very old school. I would appreciate it if you could recommend something to me. And of course I listen to Rammstein. So it shouldn't only be rap. Thanks a lot in advance.

Google image translate was able to get me as far as "For our..." and "on behalf of", but that's it.

It's a 1924 edition of Hegel's Lectures on Philosophy of History, in German, published by Philipp Reclam Jun. of Leipzig as part of the Reclam Universal Library. I picked it up years ago at a second hand book sale along with a ton of other books, just got around to noticing the stamp and inscription. As far as I can tell from a bit of googling, the stamp indicates this book was sent or received by a German prisoner of war in a British labour camp in Egypt, probably the suez canal zone. I couldn't find an exact location for German Independent Working Company 2719.

Anyway, would love a translation of the handwriting if anyone can figure it out. The combination of messy writing, possibly abbreviations, and a language I don't speak has stumped me.

Ich habe beide gesehen in die selbe Context.
Was ist die Unterschied zwischen "ich habe dich liebe" und "ich liebe dich" ?

I'm a total beginner. Studied German for a bit in High School but never really got into it. Been thinking about actually learning it, at least to be able to understand some basic stuff.

So does anyone have any recommendations that could be useful/ have been helpful for you?

Es geht mir gut aber ich habe viel Arbeit und ich möchte mehr Zeit bei Deutsch lernen verbringen.

Und du ?

Für Deutsch, anderen Sprachen oder anderen Themen ?

Ich arbeite um ein B2 deutsch Sprachzertifizierung zu haben. Und ich möchte mehr Sport machen.

Ich bin kein OP und kann nicht sehr gut Deutsch, aber ich möchte mehr üben.

Ich hoffe, dass ich das richtig schreibe:

Was ist das Beste am Fediversum?

@german Two things:

1. New to the Fediverse and interested in seeing how reaching out to your Lemmy via my Mastodon account works.

2. My main question:

I came across an interesting sentence on Duolingo today. „Willst du mit mir zur Bank mitkommen." I know mitkommen is a separable verb, so does that mean I can reply, „Ich komme mit dir zur Bank mit' or would you usually omit the final 'mit"?

Hey there everybody, I'm DVD.

I came to the Fediverse/Lemmy recently after the mass exodus from, competitors, like I'm sure many of you have.

I've been knees deep in learning the German Language since October, and I wanted a community to help myself and others along in this process of language learning, which I noticed Lemmy lacked, so I created c/German.

I should preface this community by saying that I am probably the least qualified person to run a community such as this. I would probably fail the Goethe B1 Exam for German, and I have never moderated any community before, not on Lemmy nor its competitors.

But, I saw the need for a place like this, and I stepped up to the plate. If you are seeing this and are interested, feel free to join. If the place isn't quite as lively as you thought it would be, try creating a post or commenting on some existing ones. I promise to work on community engagement as this place (hopefully) grows.

With that being said, also message me if you are interested in any moderator roles. I will gladly accept others who are willing to make sure this community stays on track, and remains toxic-free.
