Wie geht's? Ich heisse Aria und ich wohne in der Schweiz. Ich habe Deutsch in der Schule gelernt aber am Arbeit habe ich bemerkt, dass ich seit denn so viel vergessen habe :???: Did that make any sense? Anyway, I have been looking for a way to get back to the level I used to have. I was pretty fluent when I finished high school, but now I really struggle to make things come out right. It's difficult to find the right material to study when you have already covered all the basics, but based on the experience I've had at Japanesepod101.com, I'm pretty sure I'll find here exactly what I need. I'm really looking forward to this!:wink: Hallo zusammen! Wie geht’s? Ich heisse Aria und ich wohne in der Schweiz.

Therefore I have two songs for consideration; I always heard these songs at outdoor festivals being played on some floats and beer tents. Everyone would sing along when ever one of the floats playing these songs passed by and I always wonder what the lyrics were. Artist: Lollies Song: Wahnsinn (...Hölle, Hölle, Hölle) Artist: Höhner Song: Viva Colonia (Da Simmer Dabei, Dat Is Prima!) Adam P.S. Love the lessons keep up the great work guys.

Here is the final version: "Ach, prima! Dieser Podcast ist super. Ich lerne Deutsch in der Schule also wird dieser Podcast super sein weil ich mehr Deutsch lernen kann." Basically, you just didn't know that "Podcast" is masculine (at least it feels that way to me, sometimes there are disagreements among Germans about which gender an anglicism should have) and "werdet" should be "wird" and as a verb it has to take the 2nd place in the clause; "also" counts as the first. I am not sure when the intermediate series will start, because I recently moved to Berlin and now we have to settle in and find a new recording studio there. Also, I want the intermediate series to start more or less where the beginner series leaves off, so that you can logically progress from zero knowledge to fluent speaker of German. For now, you can enjoy the first beginner lesson, which will be released tomorrow (the 17th). Matt, your text was almost correct. Here is the final version:

Well, Spanish is almost a Portuguese, so it's not so difficult for me! Wait until you see the formation of those loooooooooong words in German. That's really cool. Verb conjugation is extremely easy, nothing compared to all those tenses in Neolatin languages!!! :cool: Bueno, español es casi un portugués, así que no me resulta tan difícil!
