Ich möchte Deutsch üben

 

Being the language lovers that we are... A place to talk about, or write in languages other than Spanish and English.

In der Vergangenheit? Nee haha jetzt habe ich das problem: ich will sofort in Deutschland studieren und deswegen muss ich viel lernen, natürlich. Ich hab's seit 4 Jahren gelernt und jetzt bin ich mittelstufe... aber es ist so schwer! Meine Muttersprache ist Spanisch und ich kann's nicht mit Deutsch vergleichen weil Spanisch offensichtlich einfacher für mich ist. Aber es ist viel schweriger als Englisch..

Naja... nicht nur in der Vergangenheit, offentsichtlich. Aber ich verstehe dich, weil Spanish so einfach ist, wenn man English sprecht, wegen der Wortstellung. Jedoch Deutsch lernen ist nützlich für die nordwesteuropäisch Sprachen, (Schwedisch, Norwegisch, Dänisch, Niederländisch, usw...), und die Wortstellung hilft nicht nur mit diesen, sondern auch mit Französisch, Italienisch, Tschechisch, Russisch, usw.
Eigentlich - wieso lernst du Deutsch, hvalle98?
And ROBINDESBOIS i'm sure you'll have ample opportunity i'm happy to help you with any questions, but i'm not fluent, so i wouldn't expect expertise...

I took German for a grand total of one semester, it wouldn't fit into my schedual after that.
When I get better at Spanish (I have a LOOONG way to go), I'd like to start learning German. I remember almost nothing about it at all...actually I could say the same for everything I took in highschool!
Will it be easier to learn knowing Spanish? Is there a lot of similarities?
Danke!

From my own experience, a native speaker of English who has learned Spanish as a second language typically does find it to be easier to learn German than a native speaker of English who has never learned a second language. In my opinion, there are 2 types of advantages that learning Spanish confers:

1. Learning ANY second language develops language-learning skills and an awareness of the kinds of differences that can exist between two different languages.

2. German and Spanish share certain types of grammatical features that English does not have; learning how to use those grammatical features in Spanish helps make learning how to use the same types of features in German easier, even though the details of those features may be very different. For example, Spanish and German both have grammatical gender and gender agreement between nouns, articles and adjectives, and Spanish and German both have at least one familiar/informal style of second-person address and at least one formal/polite style of second person address (tú/vosotros vs. Ud/Uds, and du/ihr vs. Sie).

Ach so! Ich finde dieses Thema so schoen, weil ich die deutsche Sprache viel ueben muss, um in Deutschland zu studieren (ich habe schon da besucht, aber meine Wortschatz wird schlecht zu schnell (schade))! Wenn man mehr ueben will, schreiben Sie hier bitte!! In meiner Meinung ist Deutsch so ausgezeichnet, dass ich uebertraurig werden wuerde, wenn meine Kenntnis der Sprache verschlechtert!

Auch: Gibt es eine leichte Methode, um Umlauten auf einen Englischen Tastatur zu schrieben?

Ja, natürlich. Du kannst das Menü für spanische Buchstaben hier im Forum benutzen. (The drop-down menu on top of the text box where you write messages to be posted.)
Du kannst auch im Forum "Technical things" für Tipps nachschlagen.

Corrections will be welcome... mein Deutsch ist so schlecht!

The drop-down box is inadequate, it only gives ü, and we need ae, ee, and oe.

The plural of Umlaut is Umlaute, by the way, and the post before Angelica's is not easy to correct without re-writing it completely.

@Satchrocks: Perhaps you'll be interested in checking the possibilities to install Spanish keyboard in your computer, so you'll be able to type Umlaute for each letter.

Stimmt? Ich weiss, dass ich 'Englisch auf Deutsch' ein bisschen zu viel schreibe (z.B.: ich verwende englischen Idiome, usw.) - jedoch kann mann den Beitrag verstehen, nicht wahr?
