They write super long sentences that form an entire paragraph, forcing you to go back and reverse engineer the whole thing to understand it. A lot of English people do this too. It's one reason medieval scholars forced Germans to write in Latin.

That's ridiculous. I'm sure you've looked into French and Italian.

I think the hardest thing about German is the prepositions. Here the rules don't really make any fucking sense, especially in combination with the trennbar verbs. You end up repeating prepositions twice in a sentence and it feels and looks ridiculous

Italian is easy; French is fairly difficult. I speak native Spanish, a smidge of Arabic, low-intermediate French, and high-intermediate/low advanced Italian. Introductory German was easier to me than any of these. I'll grant that the pronunciation is cumbersome, but French is arguably worse. I took a few years of French, and still don't understand a fucking word of it.

I don't know what the fuck it is about French, but I've given up on that language. I'd rather dedicate my efforts where I see reasonable results - i.e.- picking up a little more Arabic and becoming more advanced in Italian. I may try Japanese in a few years.

I don't understand why you find French so hard if you know Italian. French people visiting Italy will order in French at restaurants and be understood.

My French is pretty good, and I was able to get to a lower intermediate level in Italian in less than 2 wks of intense study. They'are lexicons have a 90% concordance rate.

I'm re-learning/brushing up and I 100% agree. The prepositions are really hard.

The other hard part is of course all the endings for the genders and cases. No individual one is hard obviously, but you really have to know your genders and cases for every noun, and you have to apply it quickly especially when speaking.

The prepositions are difficult because many cognate with English prepositions but used differently. Also, verbs with prepositions have altered meanings that can't be guessed from the preposition+verb.

it's really almost 4 because the plural is kind of a gender as well in certain cases, particularly the dative

Which is still easier than Ukrainian (and I assume Russian is pretty similar) where the genders have their own plural forms (although masculine and neuter plural are very similar). So the German gender x case grid is 4x4=16 things to learn versus Ukrainian (3x2)x7 = 42 things to learn, and that's not even considering that there are multiple forms of nominative declensions....

this makes it a lot easier, actually. in latin all the plurals are different, for instance, although there's sometimes a gendered/neuter split.

There's other shit that gets more advanced that no one bothers to tell you about early on, with weak and strong verbs and N-Nomen (why do you say Mein Name ist, but then you say ich habe keinen Namen) and some verbs must be separated and some can't, even when the preposition part is the same.

English is very nuanced with prepositions as well, so that part is hard to understand for learners, but English is goddamn stupidly easy to get started and make yourself understood.

i agree, n-declension is annoying.

knowing when certain verbs are reflexive also drives me crazy. as does using sein for certain verbs in the perfekt.

i honestly wish i could just live over there for 6 months to a year. i'd come back fluent.

N-nomen is a minor, minor grammatical point that hardly matters is everyday German.

The point is that there is a declination of nouns in the German language. And like the gender of a noun, there's basically no way to ascertain what applies.

No. In German there are tiny vestigial traces of nominal declension that are practically irrelevant for communication. Its not like Latin or Russian where not only are nouns fully declined, but each gender has multiple different declension schemes.

How is this responsive? These things exist, and I'm not sure how the fact that they exist more frequently in other languages means they must not be learned.

English possessive formation ('s) is technically nominal inflection for the genitive case, but no one says English is nominally inflected, and neither is German in any meaningful way, faggit.

Some languages start out easy and then you fall off a cliff when you get to the grammar shit, other languages are the reverse. I'm told Tagalog has a steep initial learning curve, even though it seems like it would be easy to get started, whereas German starts off easy and then leads you in circles.

its the opposite. German starts off hard with having to know the artikeln and proper declension in akkusativ, dativ, genetiv, Konjunktive I & II, regelmassig u. unregelmassig verben, and so forth, but gets easier once you have those fundamentals down.

"La" and "le" is ways easier than die, das, der with all the tenses.

E.g.

Ich wohne in der Heimat.

All kinds of that stuff in German. It's tough.

OP must be a gook.

German should be easy to pick up if you're a native English speaker. After Frisian and Dutch/Afrikaans, it's the closest language to English.

I was able to pick up basic German very quickly by just memorizing the most common 100 words and putting it to use with english grammer and from there learning the grammer from actual use.

The Germans have another kind of parenthesis, which they make by splitting a verb in two and putting half of it at the beginning of an exciting chapter and the other half at the end of it. Can any one conceive of anything more confusing than that? These things are called "separable verbs." The German grammar is blistered all over with separable verbs; and the wider the two portions of one of them are spread apart, the better the author of the crime is pleased with his performance. A favorite one is reiste ab -- which means departed. Here is an example which I culled from a novel and reduced to English:

"The trunks being now ready, he DE- after kissing his mother and sisters, and once more pressing to his bosom his adored Gretchen, who, dressed in simple white muslin, with a single tuberose in the ample folds of her rich brown hair, had tottered feebly down the stairs, still pale from the terror and excitement of the past evening, but longing to lay her poor aching head yet once again upon the breast of him whom she loved more dearly than life itself, PARTED."

English people still write convoluted bullshit like this. It's not strictly a "german" thing. I read some study released by the UK government, and it read exactly like a translation of something written in German. You wouldn't last a day in the US Govt if you wrote like that. It made me realize I'd picked up all my bad writing habits from English authors.

No one thought to write anything good or important in German until the late 19th century. There were no epic works of German literature or philosophy written in German until the late 19th century. It was always considered a total shit language even by native speakers, not appropriate for writing books on academic topics. Even Nietzsche trashed it while writing in German.

Lmfao German is one of the easiest languages to learn. It's almost as easy as any of the romance languages. Extremely consistent rules and syntax, and spelling once you understand the system.

Vastly easier than any of the Asian languages or anything in Cyrillic
