I thought people took Duolingo to learn how to say "Three delicious large duck bandits stole my banana pants from my hot freezer" in foreign languages because you never know when you might need to say that.
@@addisoncwt Once I got something like: Dein Bär war total faul, wir schenken ihm keinen Elefanten (Your bear was totally lazy, we don't give him an elephant). 😂😂😂 Do you think I will ever use this?
French is my second language (not a native speaker but I understand everything) so I learned english on duolingo (my native language) and it was a struggle because I kept messing up tiny french grammar things even though I fully understood the english agh
I used to learn spanish as a german speaker (german is my native language) but then i switched to 'as an english speaker' because a lot of the words were in 'old' german. For example they kept saying fotoapparat (which means camera) but nowadays nobody uses that word, instead you use kamera in german
And also they kept using the simple past form in german even though it's also not used that often anymore. For example instead of saying 'ich lief' (I walked) you would nowadays say 'ich bin gelaufen' (I 'am' 'gewalked'). Yes I know german is weird😂
I'm Swedish and I was struck with so much nostalgia that the woman that recorded the voice was a voice I grew up with on TV! I also was envious that my target language has robot voices and Swe learners get a human voice.
im also using duolingo to learn german rn but the thing that they keep giving me the same simple words over and over like every lesson instead of giving me a new content to learn is killing me
Multiple exposures in varying context helps with retention. Duolingo is a tool, not the Be All, End All. If you're *only* using Duolingo you won't become fluent. I just enjoy the fun exercises and that it keeps me engaged. Books don't have reminder push notifications! 😃
Germans usually have really good English sounding accents. Usually closer to British than American though. I saw a video of Germans being interviewed in public and being British myself their accents were indistinguishable from ours
it’s uncanny how the voices of the “characters” in duolingo are similar in every language you learn, like when I do french lessons, the characters sound very similar even in a different language 😂
Can I just say, I figured the "I spelled it correctly" at 6:24 would go away eventually, but as it just sat there for another ten seconds I thought to myself how fucking hilarious it would be if that was the rest of the video lol
I started wih Duolingo but after I quit it and started a basic grammar school and now I'm confident and systematic and just sit and think how it works. But it's ok those who wants to practice this way it's nice for them. But I want to learn a different traditional way. But it's ok if you don't have time to open books you can learn by fun through apps.
I feel ya! I started learning Portuguese with Duolingo and ended up just knowing a few basic words and I just wasn't comfortable enough speaking or even writing in Portuguese. Now I'm studying using a book and watching videos in Portuguese. That made me more confident in my Portuguese. But as you said, for those who don't have time for that, it's a great way to kinda get to know the very basics of a language.
@@ThePancakeSimp I'm learning Norwegian on Duolingo right now and I really like it / it really helps me. I think everyone saying it stays too basic or whatever just stopped quite soon. If you actually continue the course it gets more and more advanced. Obviously with an app like this (and with books as well actually imo) to perfect your grasp of the language what works for me is watching videos in the language and trying to engage in conversation if possible. The way I see it, it's like learning to drive. Your driver's ed teaches you to drive, but continuing to drive afterwards really teaches you. As with everything, practice makes perfect.
In Welsh I keep getting sentences along the lines of “Is Owen eating parsnips in the pub?” or “Owen buys parsnips in England” or anything to do with Owen and his parsnips. It’s got to the point where my dad will randomly say “pannas” (parsnips) to me and I’m like “NOPE-“
I mean "Schau" actually is the only way to write the exact German word for "show". It's just that the English word (unfortunately) pushed the German word away. Everything today is "...show or ... Show". The only TV shows that still have "Schau" in their name that come to my mind are "Tagesschau" und "Sportschau" though.
As a native Finn i wanted to try this also. From the very first lesson the fight had begun. Duolingo accepts only one certain order of words, when in the finnish language you can flip them around pretty much as you like while still maintaining the original context. Very often in songs the words will be other way around than in speech.
Yes, German is the same in that we have more freedom in word order for creative expression in writing and such. English is more restricted to a certain order.
I'm a German who started Learning Finnish on Duolingo and I get very Annoyed with Duo a lot when i make a tiny mistake cause i wasn't reading correctly. It sucks.

To discuss something in German would be "Etwas zu besprechen." We would only use "diskutieren" if the conversation was some what combative in nature, like a milder more measured version of an argument.

I'm using Duolingo to learn German. What I find causes me lose confidence in Duolingo and wonder how well the German is structured, are the English renderings of German sentences. I am a native English speaker. I get that they use American expressions like 'coffee shop' for 'cafe'. But sometimes the prepositions are not quite right and the grammar is distorted. Is this just American English or has it been written by German speakers and not checked by a native English speaker?
Just finished it (or at least, as much as it has to teach before the practice modules). Deutsche Welle places me easily at A2 and 72% (apparently good enough!) at B1 but if I'm honest I struggled with the B1 test so I think I'm in between somewhere. It's interesting that even in your video near the start there are words and phrases I've never encountered. Meanwhile when I tried Babble the first thing it taught me was Vorspeise, Hauptspeise and Nachspeise, very very basic things that I realised Duolingo never even taught me (it did Nachtisch... But that's all). My grasp of German is certainly good enough to know "Speise", "Haupt-" etc so no problem but it's funny to think after almost 500 days of daily learning and getting through the whole course there would still be basic words in a restaurant I'd have to piece together.
Would you guys like to see a video regarding things like the letter generator? This is one I created using this generator: www.letter-generator.org.uk/2h4yfjk0/swallowing-humans-like-two-fat-boogeymans.html Yeah, it's weird 😂😂
I'm pretty sure paint is poisonous. I vaguely remember some videogames with paint being used to poison cake. I also remember something about poison control with paint.
4:55 actually "Ich bin Studentin" is the more correct solution. "Ich bin eine Studentin" isn't grammatically wrong, but it is the kind of solution where you can tell immediately that the speaker either isn't a native speaker of German, or if he is, that the sentence is the result of a translation from another language.
I actually heard that around here a lot. Maybe it's just a result of speaking quickly, but idk. When somebody includes an article, I wouldn't immediately think that they're not native.
I did the same and it was surprisingly difficult, lmao. 🤣 And I already rage when learning Dutch which has much simpler and lenient grammar, just some weird spelling and phonetics.
If you have some questions about Dutch or would like to speak to a native, I'd be happy to help! I'd say Dutch would be rather easy for a native German speaker, right? I mean I'm definitely not fluent in German, but I'd say generally Dutch people understand most of German seeing as how related the languages are. Also, I'm currently learning Norwegian and I must say, it really helps knowing (some) German because a lot of words are very similar or the same as either the Dutch, German or English versions of the word :)
I see what you mean. I think they mean Brazilian Portuguese, but they could've called that Brazilian Portuguese instead of just Portuguese (if that's what they actually mean)
I took German once and finished it pretty fast to be honest I also decided to take English and I have finished it in like 5 hours as I skipped most of the basics and headed over to the end (English is my second language) Duolingo is not that good with teaching me lol XD through my Spanish is getting better and my Japanese is alright
Ich habe schon andere Kommentare gelesen, die deinen amerikanischen Akzent diskutieren. Aber Alter… am Anfang des Videos wollte ich nicht glauben, dass du Deutsch bist. Du sprichst fast genau wie ein Ami. Und ich komme selber aus den USA.
Can you help please when I spell the coffee is hot its der Kaffee ist hieß or das pizza ist hieß thats what it shows and I get everything else right but hieß is wrong can you help?
Kind of a late reply but yea basically "heiß" means hot and "hieß" means "was called" for example "er hieß Markus" means "he was called Markus", hope it helped!
Pro trip for English speakers. With the diphthongs “ie” and “ei” you only pronounce the last letter and say it as you would in English. So “ei” is pronounced like the letter “I” and “ie” is pronounced like the letter “E”. Viel Glück!
Ah yes as a german myself all those learning apps from duolingo to babble they are terrible xd like theres always gonna be that one word or sentence that app is gonna get wrong ;-;
Duolingo is not bad but its not good. They are very shy on important topics that will be used throughout daily life and that makes it a bad choice for ppl wanting to learn fluent languages. Most duolingo learners are often behind in spelling and writing in general due to the lack of lessons covering writing
6:27 i have the same problem (thinking you spelled something wrong and jet you did it right) oh and set youre languages to german and english helps out alott 7:02 you know there are sometimes english prases on products and yesterday i forgot that wolf and some other word where spelled the same way in english and german you austrian or german 14:35 we had the same reaction but that is prity funny
Ich muss zugeben, dass ich nie jemanden gesehen habe dessen Muttersprache Deutsch ist, er aber den Duolingo Deutsch Kurs macht. Bin gespannt. Habe das Video nämlich noch nicht angefangen. Ich warte bloß auf die dummen Fragen von Duolingo...
You literally sound like an American, how do you speak English without accent? I have a russian accent, in some way it's similar to german (consonants). Any tips, or maybe a video abt it
So im rrly confused about the German words ‘Ein and ‘Eine’. Duolingo keeps telling me im wrong and I dont know what I am doing incorrectly! Are they the same thing? 😭
Hi Cindy! I’m also learning German through Duolingo and to answer your question- yes! They both mean the same thing. “Eine” is referring to feminine words while “Ein” is referring to masculine. It does get a little tricky to try and remember which nouns are fem/ masc or also neutral but just thought that this might help!
Hannah is correct :) for example to say my sister is nice, you would say: meine Schwester ist nett. To say my brother is nice, you would say: mein Brudda ist nett. So you see mein and meine switches like ein and eine 👍
Hmm, for "show" I guess post people would use "Aufführung" instead of "Schau", as the latter is a bit ambiguous on it's own. Sure it's a perfectly correct word for it, but I don't thing anyone would use it without direct context or packing it into a compound noun.
Are you actually taking portuguese lessons? Thats so cool. I only find people doing the spanish lessons. I am brazilian and I am doing the german lessons (at least until Duolingo decided to change completely and become worse)
I thought people took Duolingo to learn how to say "Three delicious large duck bandits stole my banana pants from my hot freezer" in foreign languages because you never know when you might need to say that.
"Do you know my elephant?" "My bear is not dangerous" And I'm not even sure if I'll say these once in a lifetime

15:25 I wouldn't be surprised if Eddy's next line was ' Wo ist mein Gürtel?'
The thing on "I would discuss that", a "Diskussion" in german is much more the equivalent of an argument in english than a discussion
Portuguese too
Well, an argument is a discussion after all. Just a little bit uncivilised

You can learn words by reading texts in your target language, watching videos with subtitles (also helps with the pronunciation), dictionaries, etc.
@@ThePancakeSimp tysm!!
Very nice
Even i, a non german speaker get offended when they make me say things in ways no german person has ever said, if it's correct it should count
As an italian I once tried the italian course of Duolingo… I got wrong some things because I didn’t know how to say them in english💀
17:56 lack oder lebensmittelfarbe , weil wenn option 1 dann ist der kuchen tonnenreif , wws ich vermute
warum hab ich mir das angesehen...
6:21: You spell deliver like the liver 😂.
as someone who is half german and half irish, the little so called errors makes me laugh
I felt this mistake at 3:43 i do this every time.
Ich habe schon andere Kommentare gelesen, die deinen amerikanischen Akzent diskutieren. Aber Alter… am Anfang des Videos wollte ich nicht glauben, dass du Deutsch bist. Du sprichst fast genau wie ein Ami. Und ich komme selber aus den USA.
Can you help please when I spell the coffee is hot its der Kaffee ist hieß or das pizza ist hieß thats what it shows and I get everything else right but hieß is wrong can you help?
btw one tiny little mistake I also found: It's die Pizza. Pizza is female
Kind of a late reply but yea basically "heiß" means hot and "hieß" means "was called" for example "er hieß Markus" means "he was called Markus", hope it helped!
Pro trip for English speakers. With the diphthongs “ie” and “ei” you only pronounce the last letter and say it as you would in English. So “ei” is pronounced like the letter “I” and “ie” is pronounced like the letter “E”. Viel Glück!
Ah yes as a german myself all those learning apps from duolingo to babble they are terrible xd like theres always gonna be that one word or sentence that app is gonna get wrong ;-;
8:48 why i dont have those dialogs in my duolingo?
Duolingo is not bad but its not good. They are very shy on important topics that will be used throughout daily life and that makes it a bad choice for ppl wanting to learn fluent languages. Most duolingo learners are often behind in spelling and writing in general due to the lack of lessons covering writing
Alles klar 👍🏿
6:27 i have the same problem (thinking you spelled something wrong and jet you did it right)
oh and set youre languages to german and english helps out alott
7:02 you know there are sometimes english prases on products and yesterday i forgot that wolf and some other word where spelled the same way in english and german
you austrian or german
14:35 we had the same reaction but that is prity funny
I'm German
Ich feiere das so hart. Ich finde ja, dass die Aussprache bei Duolingo bei jeder Sprache sehr weird ist. Sogar Englisch :D
Ahahaha this video was so funny
Ich muss zugeben, dass ich nie jemanden gesehen habe dessen Muttersprache Deutsch ist, er aber den Duolingo Deutsch Kurs macht. Bin gespannt. Habe das Video nämlich noch nicht angefangen. Ich warte bloß auf die dummen Fragen von Duolingo...
You literally sound like an American, how do you speak English without accent? I have a russian accent, in some way it's similar to german (consonants). Any tips, or maybe a video abt it
Thanks for the idea
deinen deutschen akzent erkennt man relativ schwer, gutes englisch!
So im rrly confused about the German words ‘Ein and ‘Eine’. Duolingo keeps telling me im wrong and I dont know what I am doing incorrectly! Are they the same thing? 😭
Hi Cindy! I’m also learning German through Duolingo and to answer your question- yes! They both mean the same thing. “Eine” is referring to feminine words while “Ein” is referring to masculine. It does get a little tricky to try and remember which nouns are fem/ masc or also neutral but just thought that this might help!
@@Banunah Thank you Hannah :)
Hannah is correct :) for example to say my sister is nice, you would say: meine Schwester ist nett. To say my brother is nice, you would say: mein Brudda ist nett. So you see mein and meine switches like ein and eine 👍
@Hannah That's correct! Little addition: You use "Ein" also for neural nouns like 'das Haus (the house)' would be 'ein Haus (a house)'.
Don't learn German on duolingo UNLESS you already know about the case system. Duolingo doesnt learn you grammar, only vocab
Nices video! Und was hälst du von Weißwurst
Ich mag Weißwurst nicht so gerne, um mal ehrlich zu sein.
Hmm, for "show" I guess post people would use "Aufführung" instead of "Schau", as the latter is a bit ambiguous on it's own. Sure it's a perfectly correct word for it, but I don't thing anyone would use it without direct context or packing it into a compound noun.
Wieso hast du einen Akzent in deinem Deutschen?
Wie lange hast du in den USA (Wo hast du gelebt?) gelebt? :D
Ich habe überhaupt nicht in den USA gelebt.
I’m learning German in duolingo!
Same

Are you actually taking portuguese lessons? Thats so cool. I only find people doing the spanish lessons. I am brazilian and I am doing the german lessons (at least until Duolingo decided to change completely and become worse)
