    Of the many useful videos you have made this is right up there with the top ones, and I think the whole video series will turn out to be a great idea. You hit the nail on the head: A big step in sounding more fluent in any language is understanding the variations of common words and when and how to use them correctly.
    I liked this video very much. Ich bin dir sehr dankbar!

      Yes. I don't know my "entschuldigen" from tutting my leid. Also how to politely say get out of the way, like when trying to get out of a crowded train or elevator.

    When I spent some time in Germany, I couldn't quite figure out when to use dankeshoen or vielen dank. It seemed that locals in the Frankfurt area were most likely to use vielen dank, but I wasn't sure if there was a subtle context that I was missing.

    As my family name, Seidl, would tell most Germans, my family is Austro-Bavarian. I'm accustomed to Vergelt's Gott. I figured it to be older: Oma and Opa emigrated in the 1910's. But, when I lived in Germany, in the 1980's, "vielen dank," was common (RheinPhalz).

    My father was in the Army , and was stationed in Germany while I was ages 5-8 years old. I absolutely loved it!
    I had a German teacher who taught us the language. I used to remember the words that we were taught in school, but since living in south Texas where so many people speak Tex/Mex, or Spanish I’ve forgotten most of the German language.

    Great idea to make these new series! I can't wait for the upcoming videos!
    Ideas:
    1. Common everyday phrases (with context)?
    2. Another example is to take ''es tut mir leid'' and ''entschuldigung'' and explain the differences (with context/examples) plus other similar words/phrases.
    3. Lastly, many ways to say goodbye...
    Thanks for the content and keep it up! xx

      Au contraire! They love it! I speak pretty good, grammatically correct, with a fairly good accent. I was on a train once in Germany and struck up a conversation with the guy sitting next to me. After about an hour of "plaudern" he used an English phrase with a perfect American accent. I then switched to English and told him why was I breaking my teeth speaking German. He said, that it was so nice to hear a foreign speaker speaking such good German.
