    30 years ago I began learning German through language tapes.
    I concluded very quickly to throw all of the grammar rules out the window because all that I wanted to do was just to speak to average Germans in Germany. Now I am fluent (it took many years). Since a lot of what I say are phrases that I heard on german television shows or news reports, my grammar is a lot better than what I would have expected. I know that many language teachers would be appalled at suggesting to learn German this way, but if I had to do it all over again, I would do it the same way.

      Meanwhile me who is on the verge to making perfect German sentences with prepositions, adverbs, adjectives, Possessive Pronouns and articles, Tenses, and auxiliaries still left.
      Learning german is easy. The problem is you need to know what to use at the right time since they can be quite confusing at times. For example: You have 3 'The' for different Genders; Der, Die and Das. But there are 16 'The' you can use depending on the cases that includes Den, Des, and Dem. The same applies to indefinite articles (a, an). Overall, I enjoy learning this language even though it may seem hard. My only obstacle is audial comprehension.

    They’re called cases and German isn’t the only language that has them. In junior high school, I took Latin which is a good language to start learning cases because you don’t have to speak it. Now I’m learning Greek which also has cases but they don’t have any word order rules which paradoxically makes Greek harder than German, at least for me.
    Also native English speakers usually learn some Shakespeare in high school and it’s more similar to German than modern English. So we have that too.

    Those are part of what's called a declension!
    Basically German is still following the steps of older languages, where instead of just using "you" normally and then determine by the context it's function, declension applies to that word some basic functions (most likely Nominative, Genitive, Dative, Accusative, Vocative and Ablative) and then use the right variation of the word based on what function you want to give it in the sentence. I think Russian has declension system aswell!
    - Nominative is used when the word has the function of a subject
    - Genitive when it has the function of explaining of whom something is
    - Dative when it has the function of explaining to whom you want to attribute something or to whom you want to give a gift for example
    - Accusative when it has the function of a direct object
    - Vocative (not used alot) when it has the function of praising someone or even the opposite. The first of the two is mostly used on religious texts
    - Ablative is sort of a jolly, it can be used to make other stuff in the sentence
    Hope this was helpful even with the little knowledge I currently have by studying Latin and Ancient Greek at school!

      And it's not an ancient language. Certainly younger than English and German.
      Most Slavic languages have declension.

    "I love you hate me".
    In German:
    1: ich liebe dich, hass mich.
    Meaning: I love you (recipient/object), hate me (for it)
    2: Ich liebe, du hasst mich.
    Meaning: I love, (but) you (actor/subject) hate me.
    So "Du" is an active actor and "dich" is a recipient like "to you" or "at you" and so on.
    And Sie is just a polite form for "you". Like Mr. Or Sir or something like this. Its convenient so you get directly ehat type of conversation it will be, formal or informal/friendly. As with du and dich its the same with formal Sie and Ihnen. Ihnen is a formal dich (simplified).
    You can be singular and plural. Three girls standing there and you say "you are beautiful". For Germans its confusing, are you meaning one girl or the whole group?.
    So Du is a singular person, and Ihr the plural form. Like with du and dich its the same with ihr and euch. But this is the same for all latin based languages, only english is weird using the same for both.

    Flipping between sentences with different verb conjugations that activate the accusative or dative gets the cogs spinning. Then put something at the start of the sentence like 'Heute' or 'Gestern' to put the verb in the second position.

    Im a native English speaker. I've tried to learn several languages. Right now I'm working on german. Its the only one that I can actually wrap my head around. Maybe its because I can actually use it in my daily life, because my girlfriend understands it, due to growing up hearing her great grandfather speak it. I didn't have anyone to practice the other languages with, except Spanish. Which I understand more than I can speak, because I couldn't get much of a word in edgewise.
    Learning the different forms of you is easy if you know middle English, or even early modern English (Shakespeare). Thou, thee, thy, thine, you, ye, your, yours, and at least here in the US, y'all, yous, you'uns.
    So yes standard modern English has one you, but it used to have many more, that actually made context clearer.
    It isn't that hard to learn the German forms of you.
    I do understand that mandarin doesn't congigate verbs or decline nouns, and English has very little of both, but its doable.
