Hey guys^^

I wondered why so few of you seem to be interested in German language...

Is there anything you want to know or you want me to tell you?
About Germany, the language etc.???

Whatever you want to know (exept swearwords^^) you´re welcome to ask me about it.

Yours, Katja

I'm going to Berlin in two weeks and I was wondering what the people are like there. Do they mind as much if you can't speak German (I can but my parents can't) and also I was wondering what the nightlife was like.
If you know the answers can you tell me? If not it doesn't matter

Well, to be honest, I only was in Berlin once...

But I think the people there don´t mind it much if your parents can´t speak German...

There are many foreigners in Berlin and usually they have English speaking receptionists in the hotels...

In the bookshops you can buy tourguides in English as well...

In fancy restaurants they might understand English or even have the menu in English.
In traditional restaurants you better use a dictionary...

About the nightlife...
There are many cool bars and clubs in Berlin-Mitte, near the Alexanderplatz or in Carlottenburg as well but here I recommend a guide as well (maybe they have guides at your local bookshop?).

They have quite interesting museums on the Museumsinsel and there are many interesting theatre shows like "Elisabeth", a musical....
I recommend a look on the Berlin website:
www.berlin.de/english/

how do we greet people?
in german?

You´d say : "Guten Tag" to grown ups and people you don´t know ( you can use it in the late morning, around noon and in the afternoon)
In the morning it´s "Guten Morgen"
in the evening "Guten Abend"
good afternoon doesn´t exist, you´d just say "Guten Tag"

You´d usually greet people you know with "Hallo" or "Hi"^^

ohhh thanks.

oh how do we say thank you?

Thank you:
Danke
Danke sehr (more polite)
Vielen Dank
Dank dir (cordially) -> especially in Bavaria and Austria
Gott vergelt´s (something like god shall reward it) -> especially in Baden-Württemberg (usually used by older persons)

Danke sehr
lol

Bitte sehr (you´re welcome)!

yay lol

Okay, i need to know the basics! i have NEVER spoken a single word of german, so i hope you can be paitent, im very slow.

Have a look at "Basic German sayings" then^^

If there´s anything you need to know or are interested in I´m trying to help you as much as I can.

you know the only german i have ever spoked was when i was singing durch den monsun by tokio hotel lol

I hope you won´t make me translate you "Durch den Monsun"..... PLEASE DON´T....



It´s not that I don´t like to help you.... It just like I don´t *clears her throat* like them very much...

I already know some of the words so there's no need to worry lol
