yeah all my teachers say that 'you are lucky you speak dutch cause learning it is almost impossible' :confused:

Haha! My mum says that all the time. It's the grammar that's the most difficult part, compared to other languages, according to her. That's why I choosed to learn spanish in school instead of german or french ;) But I kind of regret that decision :/ We changed teachers every year and none of them were good. Most of them couldn't speak swedish so the only one who understood the teacher during the lessons was a girl from a spanish-speaking family.

I saw on the first page that 'Bulgarian teacher' is still needed - i can try. :D

good, finally we have bulgarian teacher :dance:

*wondering how she can get the letters set she'll need on her computer*

I can help with Malay. LOL.

 

and Chinese. just a little bit. im not that good in Chinese, it's super hard. :uhoh:

i wouldn't be able to type out the word over here, just the pronunciation. i don't know how to type Chinese using this keyboard.

 

i would love to learn French! but how does this learning thing work? :thinking:

Argh!

 

Is there someone who speaks Spanish? :D I have to write an exam tomorrow and there's one thing which irritates me right now...

 

If I have a male person and want to say that he's tall... Do I write:

 

La persona es alto

 

or

 

La persona es alta

 

Which of these two versions is right? Remember that the person is male, but "persona" in Spanish only exists in a female form.

 

Does anybody know the answer? I would be very grateful haha!

 

Thanks in advance. :D

The right one is the second one.

Persona is a femenine noun so it goes with the femenine article (la). Doesn't matter if is a male or a female... So it must also have the femenine form of the adjective with it (alta)

 

By just saying persona you're not really specifying if is a female or a male. Hope I explained well... :P

^ I don't speak Spanish but I studied 2 years of Latin so I

think it's alto ...

 

 

EDIT : damn too late ! and I'm wrong :D

btw: now it's ^^

^ I don't speak Spanish but I studied 2 years of Latin so I

think it's alto ...

I'm pretty sure !

 

EDIT : damn too late :D! btw: now it's ^^

 

Nooo it's alta

Wow that was quick! Muchas gracias! :D

 

And the following sentence is correct as well?! :confused:

 

La persona tiene el pelo corto

 

... because in this case corto refers to pelo right?

Yes... it's right... you're refering to pelo (hair) wich is masculine so it must go with the masculine adjective corto

 

Btw, I edited a little my previous answer, so maybe I explain better haha.

Thanks anyway! :D

Ah perfect! Yeah I just read it! Thank you very much! :)

 

Normally these adjectives are not so difficult for me, but in this case with "la persona" I thought it's better to ask someone who is fluent in Spanish. :D

Glad I did help. :)

yes, the adjective gender thing is pretty easy... Once you know the genders of the nouns of course.

Hallo Deutsche Lehrer! Ich habe eine kleine Frage an euch... Ich lerne gerade das Deutsche Präteritum...

 

Was ist richtig?

 

"Du lasest das Rote Buch" oder "Du last das Rote Buch"?

 

Entschuldige bitte mein Deutsch. :]

"Du lasest das Rote Buch" is the correct version! :D

 

But people in Germany barely use the Präteritum, which is a difference to the English language. We use Perfekt instead so I would say "Du hast das Rote Buch gelesen". :)

Yeah, I am aware of that. Dunno why we have to learn it then. :lol:

 

Danke sehr Larry. :D

I have another question!

I can't really understand these phrases. :thinking: Anyone to help?

 

1. Er hat das andere Ufer erreicht = He has acomplished the... what?

2. Wir haben darüber berrichtet = we have talked (comunicated) about that??

2. Wir haben darüber berrichtet = we have talked (comunicated) about that??

 

Well I would translate these sentences like...

 

1. He has reached the other bank/shore/waterside.

 

2. We have reported about that.

 

It must be so hard for other people to learn German! I think your skills are very good though. Keep it up! :)
