I am learning German and playing a lot of video games and I am working. My hair is still growing and I have not cut it.
If anyone wants to know how I am learning the German language just ask.
Hi Kenneth,
Das ist sehr gut.
Do post an update pic when you get a chance.
I only ever did a year of German at school and I get by when ordering beer and coffee etc. However if you've got some ways of improving my German please do let me know. It would be useful at next years Wacken festival near Hamburg.
Cheers,

Pimsleur has a set of tapes or Cd's you learn on your own. There are 3 sets that are like $250 each for each language. A full course is $750. Luckily for me my local library has the sets. So if you can get your hands on a some Pimsleur tapes or CD's you can start learning now.
Like Lesson 1 in Pimsleur 1 doesn't teach you a lot of words but you will start speaking the language from Day 1 with this program.
Example. It will have a conversation between two native speakers.
Then it will ask you to speak in the target language.
Do you speak German.
Sprechen Sie Deutsch.
German is a real tough language, but if you are an English speaker you already have some type of advantage. As many words in German sound the same as their English counterparts.
Beer = Bier
English = Englisch
Habla Espanol?
Sorry, Kenneth; but I never learned any German! Anyway, though, always nice to see you back here, regardless!

Guten abend Kenneth! I think german is such a hard language to learn,i studied it in primary school in 7th and 8th grade, however it's probably great to be able to speak it.
By the way, what video games are you playing?
Hi Kenneth,
Glad you didn't cut your hair but I figured you had things going on. I took German in high school and remember little until I went there. In the far northern part of Germany some words didn't sound the same and on a few occasions I was a bit confused. They speak in a slightly different dialect there. That's true for any language I guess.

Kenneethchen,
Ja,
I habe vier jhar Deutche in Schul gestudiert. Ich kan das sprach lesen, but sprechen est difficil, fur Ich denke in English. Fur mich, es ist an besondern sprach difficil. Even so das Ich has ein Deutsch GSR gepassen, Ich est nicht in my sprach gern. Mit ein yahr in hoch schulle Spanien, Ich is mehr fliessende. Auch mit onhe sech woken Fransoviche. So, est tut meir lied, das ich muss Deutsch verschiebe um ein wenig difficil sprach Arabisch zu learnen. Ws eion gut gelebenheit.
Have I convinced you why I have laind German aside for a while?
Do you know of any good passificst Arabic Video games?
Your german almost looks like dutch at first. I'm just in the the beginning stages of learning German, I am using the Pimsleur programs.
About Pacifist videogames I would not know. All my games are really violent and competitive. Think Counter Strike.
Good to hear from you, hope things are good! Take care there and be safe!
