German classes with MsLanna

I know

Ich bin nicht so alt.

How would you say:

When 900 years old you reach, look as good, you will not...???

 

Yoda-speak is difficult. It doesn't sound so funny in German either.

Wenn neunhundert Jahre du bist alt, wirst aussehn du nicht gut.

I think that's the translation...

 

Okay,

so so far we can Say hello, and say how old we are.

What else do you think we should need to learn...

We need to learn enough to start a secondary thread...

* Who are you?/What is your name

 

If only I thought you'd remember any of this tomorrow...

 

We can try...

Besides, I did German in Secondary school for 2 years, so I did know the basics, but sadly haven't been to Germany to remember it/use it, so it was forgotten a bit...

(I can speak some French...)

 

Okay, we'll doa refresher course then. It's easier if you don't have to start at zero.

Oh, btw zero is Null

I can't speak french. I can say tha in French, but I have no idea how to type it. I don't like French, IMO, it sounds funny...

 

Everything I know about German I learned from Lola Rennt.

 

Who is that?

Hallo, MsLanna. Ich gelerne Deutsch. Ich bin achtundzwanzig.

I'm trying to teach myself German on my own because I don't have time for it at university.

 

Hallo MsLanna

Wie geht es dir

 

Lola rennt is a good movie.I liked it. But I am not sure if it's good material to learn German from...

Hallo, Ish.
'ge' is a prefix to turn a verb into 1) perfect tenses (present and past) or a gerund.
Is teaching yourself working. I think that would be very difficult.
Was kannst du schon?

Hallo dafty.
mire geht es gut. Und dir?

Willst du noch mehr Voakbeln?

 

Mir geht es gut.

(not sure on second question...)

 

Es freut mich das zu hören.
(I'm happy to hear that.)

in answer to you first question. I was just wondering if you wanted more German vocabulary...

 

Ja! Gut!

Danke!

 

What about question words?

Wer - who
Was - what
Wo - where
Warum - why
Wie - how

 

Okay, so lets try some mix and match...

Wer geht es dir?

 

'Wie geht es die' is a fixed expression that literally means: 'How goes it you'
If you now change 'how' to who, it doesn't make sense anymore.

to go - gehen
I go - ich gehe
you go - du gesht
he/she /it goes - er/sie/es geht
we go - wir gehen
you go - ihr geht
they go - sie gehen

And that's just the present tense...

 

I remember them!

I was trying to say who are you?

 

That's 'Wer bist du'
It's built with a form of 'sein' -> 'to be'
But that one has hell of a conjugation...

 

I see.

Wer bist du?

So we have Who are you and how are you...

Where are you?

 

Wo bist du?

Ich bin zu hause (I am at home)
Ich gehe jetzt ins Bett (I go to bed now)
Gute Nacht. (Good night)

 

Ich wohne in Georgia.

 

Ich bin zu hause. Wo bist du?

 

Meine zimmer.
