Hi there and welcome to linguaholic.com

Hi there Just got the message from Blaveloper. I am going to create such a section after Christmas. Hope that is ok for you. regards Lingua

Hi Rachel I am not studying Hebrew, but I am studying Chinese. So, in terms of effort, I guess I understand what you are talking about. No matter what your age is, I am pretty sure you can still learn that language. I studied Sinology (Chinese Studies) at University, and we had a 70 year old woman that was studying with us. She was still able to learn Chinese at the age of 70. If you have passion for what you are doing, you can do it. That is my opinion. And I am pretty sure you are not even near 70 years old

'präsentieren' is better. or you could say 'Ich möchte die ökonomischen Aspekte dieses Projekts erläutern' or 'Ich möchte die ökonomischen Aspekte dieses Projekts (anhand von Beispielen) illustrieren.

Dear All I would like to present you a Hip Hop track in Swiss German. I produced the beat for the Rapper Raboose from St.Gallen. Hope you all like it!

Actually the second 'möchte' is also not mandatory. It would be possible also to omit it. But in my opinion in this case it sounds more elegant to repeat it. In the case of 'Ich' as in the sentence where you used it twice, it really sounds weird if you do so. As for the 'im Detail', it is possible in some contexts, but I would say that often it would be used in a more formal sentence (context) and it makes more sense to use it together with some nouns than others (can't think of a specific rule though.). Let me give you an example where 'im Detail' would make more sense: You could say that you would like to look at something in more detail for instance: Ich möchte mir deine Arbeit im Detail anschauen. It really depends on the context and the noun you are specifying with the phrase 'im Detail'.

The first sentence is correct. However, you could omit the second 'ich' to make the sentence even more elegant. So you could say: Ich heisse Verdiana und komme aus Italien. Actually, the same holds true for the second sentence. You don't need that second 'Îch', as the subject of the sentence is still the same (you!). So just say: ich bin 22 Jahre alt und habe Deutsch für 2 Jahre an der Universität studiert. Instead of Ich wollte mein Deutsch verbessern, you should say Ich 'möchte' mein Deutsch verbessern, as you should use a modal verb in the present tense here. The full sentence should be like: Ich möchte mein Deutsch verbessern und möchte es vor allem nicht vergessen! Oh, as for the second sentence. The thing in parentheses should be changed into (23 im Dezember). So you should replace the preposition am with 'in'. As for the stuff in parentheses in the first sentence, it sounds a little bit weird. It is grammatically correct, but a native speaker wouldn't say (Sardinien im Detail). You could simply put (Sardinien). That would be more natural. Regards L

In fact what you could do is simply upload it on youtube and then paste the link here on linguaholic.com. The video will be embedded automatically in your post then. If you ONLY want to upload here in the forums, you can send me the video and I will try to embed it. Best, Lingua

Dear Uan Nice to meet you! I am from Switzerland and I am happy to help you to improve your German. Do you mind if make some corrections to your introduction text? Most of it is really good, though. You are already on a good level! Well done Best wishes Lingua

Hi there Listen, I could easily provide the translations for those sentences, but Linguaholic is not a platform that gets all your homework done for free. So in order to get some translations for these sentences, you would need to become an active member of this community and contribute to the community as well (create posts, answer threads, share something about your native language, and so on). So if you want to get some answers for those sentences, get engaged in this community and I will be happy to provide them. regards L

stumm is a German word. The two other words are definitely not German. That's all I can say. The meaning of stumm is 'mute'.

as Blaveloper just said, I am also having problems to figure out what the left side is supposed to mean...the right side could also mean something like strong; powerful; forceful or energetic/vigorous.

Ich fahre mit dem Zug nach Wien - Ich habe mit dem Zug nach Wien gefährt? ---> Ich bin mit dem Zug nach Wien gefahren. Wir kaufen jetzt das Fahrrad - Wir haben das Fahrrad gekauft. Louise jagt ihre Katze --> Louise hat ihre Katze gejagt. Peter macht das Fenster auf --> Peter hat das Fenster aufgemacht.

Ich liebe Deutsch und ich liebe Hasen/Kaninchen (more cute form of Hasen would be Häschen --> diminutive). All information is supplied without guarantee Regards, Lingua

the overall pronunciation is pretty good, but as Sailor Cat pointed out, some parts are pretty hard to understand. Some words are even spelled wrong. Still, with some more practise, you will be fine!

Triffst du Hans heute Abend? Yes, you can say that. He hung the picture on the wall Er hängte das Bild an der Wand auf. Excuse me, can YOU help me, Frau Mueller? Entschuldigen Sie bitte Frau Müller. Ich brauche Ihre Hilfe / Wären Sie bitte so nett und könnten mir helfen? How do I get to the store? Wie komme ich zum Supermarkt? / zum Geschäft X /

done

Thanks a lot for those great answers, Sailor Cat!

欢迎来到linguaholic.com, Kevin!

then I would just say 他在公共汽车前面。 the 里 is definitely wrong semantically here, also syntactically I would say as it doesn't make any sense to have a preposition at this place in the sentence.

I wouldn't use any of these three sentences, to be honest. Could you provide a translation of what you would like to get across for those three sentences. I might be able to provide some solutions then.

Thanks a lot for helping out, Blave!
