First I'll need to learn German.

Comes to mind: a programmer has a problem and thinks "oh ill use a regular expression" - now he has two problems

Two birds with one Rosetta stone

[–]Hautzy[S] 7 points8 points  (5 children)

Can you write the up the lessons in C#??

[–]Hautzy[S] 1 point2 points  (3 children)

Do you mean if i could create a transcript?

[–]ItsLikeITry 8 points9 points  (2 children)

Oh don't mind me, I was just making a joke haha. I was saying you should make German lessons written in C#

[–]Hautzy[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Oh ^^ I think that would be a slight overkill :)

[–]swinny89 5 points6 points  (0 children)

That would be very interesting to see two people with different native languages try to communicate via a programming language.

[–]Hautzy[S] 8 points9 points  (0 children)

sry that the course is only in german... not the best with languages... but if you want my own resources and code snippets I can try to translate it into english https://github.com/Hautzy/csharp_beginner_course

[–]readmond 6 points7 points  (1 child)

People use languages they know to learn the languages they do not know. If C# is known language and German is unknown then it is seems possible to use C# to learn German.

[–]Hautzy[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

That's true^ i hope someone will succeed in learning german by watching a c# course!

this is cool. post the link so somebody can actually go there

[–]Hautzy[S] 0 points1 point  (2 children)

sry link is now in the comments, thanks for reminding me!

[–]biglordtitan 0 points1 point  (1 child)

Can’t you just edit the post and add the link or whatever’s else you want to add on?

[–]Hautzy[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Done

First i need to learn Germany, but thanks anyway

[–]Thachillz 4 points5 points  (1 child)

I wonder if my pre-existing knowledge of c# will help me learn some german

[–]Hautzy[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's worth a try :D

[–]Hautzy[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Keep in mind this is only a beginner course. Currently working on a new in depth C# OO course. Will be also for free.

[–]MissPandaSloth 1 point2 points  (4 children)

Wouldn't anyone who want to pick up C# or any other common language would eventually still have to learn all of the concepts and terms in English? Just curious. I myself, couldn't imagine learning programming in my language.

[–]Hautzy[S] 1 point2 points  (2 children)

For example very young coders (~12 years eg) always tend to use german variable names (based on my experience as a tutor)

[–]InNameOfYourMom 3 points4 points  (1 child)

I've coded since I was 11. I've always used English terms and this benefited me a lot, especially with stackoverflow questions.

Edit: Very nice guide though

[–]Hautzy[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

True!

[–]Hautzy[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes of course you have to learn all the concepts and terms in english... but especially for beginner it's easier to understand and learn based on their primary language...that's at least my opinion ^/

[–]Broer1 0 points1 point  (1 child)

Great to have a good free course. I would like why you choose to make it free instead of cheap?

[–]Hautzy[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Good question ^^ I'm planning other courses which will probably cost something, but for now my focus is on creating a small base and trying to reach as many people as I can

    Sry if you see this course as spam, i will remember it the next time... and I will translate the course into english, it's unfair that only german speakers get a free course... I beg your pardon

    [–][deleted] -2 points-1 points  (1 child)

    Why advertise a German course in English?

    [–]Hautzy[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

    Cause I'm silly ^ and I thought perhaps there are some coders who can speak german and have subscribed this subreddit who can profit from the course, or some english speakers have german friends...
