I've deleted memrise and am strictly learning German through these memes, I'm confident I'll be fluent by the end of the year.

The only true way to learn languages is pull up yomitan and anki. The most powerful language tools man has to offer

I'm in Ohio and my German is meh but I can understand 65%ish of what I see. It helps I lived in Duesseldorf for a year, but that was over 35 years ago so it doesn't help enough.

Germans browsing Lemmy at 3am: Guten Morgen

Edit: I used AI to make this. I’m not proud, but I am lazy.

Every now and then I just save the German memes and send them to my English group chats to make sure they're confused too.

Right? I think they're underestimating the comedic value of dropping a half understood meme in an American group chat.

It's frustrating because I don't know German. I still click the links every time.

That moment you finally understand German and realise all the Stör and Tisch memes are just simple word plays.

The Trump regime is rightfully infamous for their major crimes. But like any villain, they commit crimes both major and minor.

Among the minor crimes of the Trump regime is that I as an American can no longer tease Germans about the Nazis.

You can do whatever you want to do. So what I'm hearing is you no longer want to.
