>tfw your OC is used in OPs
feels great desu

ik ben inderdaad nog niet officieel ingeburgerd maar ik wil het doen dit jaar ja
didn't know it's equivalent to A2 level but that explains why it's so simple
hardcore people do NT2 but that's quite a bit more difficult
note that I don't _have_ to do inburgering, dunno if it's to do with EU status ofzo
but basically I can just go anywhere in the EU and not give a shit, to a large extent the only downside to not having citizenship is that you don't have voting rights. otherwise you're literally an EU citizen and can thus live wherever you want for however long you want

Didn't know how to say note.

what is the best german learning book? would prefer it to be in german completely

If you're a beginner you don't want 100% German

Anyone have the translation challenge from last thread? Away from my desktop for a while and don't feel like digging through archives on my phone

New one in this very thread.

Some say cultural immersion is vital to language learning because it helps you connect with that particular country. Has that helped /lang/? Traditional wallachian lute song: youtube.com/watch?v=zt_v8yIHxOM

no.

not after inburgering
inburgering (or NT2) is required to apply for citizenship
if I do get Dutch citizenship, I indeed have to give up my Romanian citizenship

I would expect that belgians are allowed to have dual citizenship but I dunno who else is as privileged

thanks. it seems very detailed. i think ill use some other source for the excersizes

Overall, really good user, well done

As far as I know Moroccans and Turks. Pretty sure Americans have it as well. There are probably more countries autistic about their nationals.

Best language to learn to find an Asian wife? trying to decide on a second language i want to learn (mostly for my career and as a hobby to do in my spare time.) Defiantly would like to immigrate to an Asian country for work and start a family with a nice girl which language would you recommend anons? which countrys and languages should i be looking into

Unironic cringe

why, i'd like to do the same but in poland or some slavic country instead of asia
user pls

This
Whats wrong with wanting to pursure a happy life with someone ? do you need dream of starting your own family one day? or are you some beta cuck who would rather have a nigger fuck his girl?

Only a leaf could be capable of such a terrible post, good job

not dream*

i think you mixed the answers user
or so i'd like to think

yeah

Your methods of pursuing that is completely idiotic and you're not dumping 1k+ hours into learning a language if you can't manage to get a girlfriend where you live. Your random Jow Forumsshit garbage also makes it obvious your personality is complete garbage which is probably why you can't get a girlfriend in the first place

have a girlfriend currently, looking to leave her. want to find a permanent women to start a family with, in my first post i said i was learning a language for career benefits/hobby find a Asian women would just be a bonus.

why are you so angry? you must be a hapa hahahahahahahaha

You done blogging and projecting now?

chill people, we are here for the languages

i feel really bad in my progress when the sentence challenges are posted does everyone use google translate or am i just bad

I use it to check my work or sometimes vocab

It's about learning not winning. Write out what you can then translate single words as necessary. Write them down and study so they become part of your arsenal.

Being able to piece together something intelligible, even if it's not a direct translation, is a huge skill to develop.

Anyone learning Esperanto?

I google a couple words nowadays.
No shame in looking up more.

any pole around

It has a shitty title but he makes very good use of cognates that an English speaker already has in his vocabulary. If you are already a mid level German speaker then this book provides exercises that help walk you into some fairly complex phraseology.

>mfw my german vocabulary is quite big
Germanlets on suicide watch.

m8 if you avoid doing them because you don't want to use translate to find the right words, you're doing it wrong imo
the point of those challenges is improvement, not to show off
at least I hope everyone prefers to figure out how a sentence would sound/work rather then being like "nope not gonna do this one because I don't know how to translate this word"

you try your best and do it anyway, there's literally nothing to lose
write them down somewhere in a notepad, save them, maybe an user will pop up
or maybe you can fetch one from their respective general on Jow Forums, who knows; it's also good to keep them for review later on, or to see how you've progressed
maybe you'll find a fren from your target language later on, and you'll have all these exercises to go over! how great would that be

French is the best language to learn if you already know English.

Prove me wrong

turkish is the best language to learn if you already know english and french :^)

As a first romance language should I pursue Spanish or French?

do you want to speak the language of moliere or d*spacito? make your decision

French, it’s objectively a better language

Spanish

French, english is already one third french.

>I bought a dictionary
Compré un diccionario.
Nice
>I didn't read that book

No leí ese - if noun was omitted it would be eso
>I will be gone for a week
Estaré afuera para una semana.
Instead of para use por, or even better, durante
>That was a nice restaurant
Eso fue un restaurante buena.
Ese (same reason as before) fue un buen restaurante/restaurante bueno. you used female inestad of male
>I don't think that's right
No creo que eso es la verdad.
Here you are using verdad meaning 'truth'. Correct would be No creo que eso sea verdad or No creo que esto esté bien

>I have won the Kellogs lottery, the prize is £5000, or a lot of ice cream
He ganado la lotería del Kellogs, el premio es cinco mil euros, o un monton de helado.
Very nice
>I would stay longer if i didn't have to work tomorrow
Quedaría si no tendría que trabajar manana.
You are missing the reflexive, its 'quedarse' so Me quedaría. Also you used the wrong tense, you have to use the imperfect from subjunctive, tuviera.
>The store clerk didn't accept my 10 Dollar bill because there was a tear in it
El trabajador del tienda no aceptó mi billete de 10 dólares porque tenía un desgarre.
Almost perfect, is 'de la tienda'
>The emperor didn't care about the peasants at all
El emperador no cuidó sobre a los campesinos ni un poco.
Only one mistake, you have to use preposition 'de', for verb is 'cuidar de'.
>John was upset that his best friend didn't help him
Juan fue molesto que su amigo mejor no le ayudó.
You have to use 'estar' almost always when talking about moods, so estaba. Also instead of que use 'de que' or 'porque'

Keep it up user :)

i noticed i was missing one detail. In the last sentence, you got 'best friend' in the wrong order, is the other way around: mejor amigo
