When you learn another language in the same family and can feel your power growing
“Bilingualism strikes me as a kind of synesthesia. Instead of seeing colors associated with letters and words, instead of hearing melodies, what I hear with language is the play and echo of the other language. The option to say it differently, and thus to live it differently…”
— Yoojin Grace Wuertz, from “Mother Tongue" (via weissewiese)
TED TALKS IN DIFFERENT LANGAUGES
I was watching TED talks, as you do, and thought ha I wonder how many languages they have and I stumbled across this language heaven! They have over 100 languages and subtitles are available in various languages which is honestly terrific! I think the scope and depth of topics offered by TED talks could be a great way to broaden your vocabulary in areas which you wouldn’t otherwise be able to particularly for intermediate and advanced learners. Anyway happy watching and learning! (Links down below, click read-more link.)

Liebe Schwester,
bis du dies gelesen hast, werde ich schon tot sein. Ich denke, dass es so passieren wird: Dieter wird mich erschießen, dann werde ich Dieter erschießen, dann wird Erich hereinkommen und von Dieter erschossen werden. Dann wirst du kommen und von Erich, Dieter und mir mehrere Male erschossen werden.
Hochachtungsvoll,
Dein Bruder Konrad
PS: Dann werden zwei Bullen diesen Brief lesen und sich gegenseitig erschießen

I just love how in English you say “great minds think alike”, which is a completely positive thing since you’re kinda praising yourself, but in German you go like “zwei Dumme, ein Gedanke” = “two fools, one thought”
German is beautiful, isn’t it
can any explain the difference between german Zahl and Nummer bitte
From what I know, Zahl is used in more specific situations, like when you talk about weight or mathematics. Nummer is more of a general term used in everyday life.
so would saying something like the number of soldiers be Zahl bcos it’s specific and something like your house number be Nummer?
can any explain the difference between german Zahl and Nummer bitte

In light of those Russian fish memes
I would like to bring to you all a wonderful discovery: The German ‘Verwechslungsgefahr’ memes!
The meme translates into ‘danger/risk of confusion’ and depicts a series of homonyms and amusing situations. I’ve actually been using this to expand my German vocabulary. Here are some of my favorite examples:
BEWARE! If you type it into google images, you’ll most likely come across a few offensive examples, so browse carefully!
Enjoy your European memeing
