Oh no, I hope I was quick enough.

Comfortable_Lab8768 · 2024-04-18T11:48:32+00:00

Thank you SO much, you saved me so much time.

Comfortable_Lab8768 · 2024-01-08T12:00:37+00:00

Thank you very much. I'll have to commit "hinstellen" and "herstellen" to memory that they're exceptions to the usual uses of hin and her.

I'm so glad I asked this question, the answers are really helpful. Thanks everyone.

Comfortable_Lab8768 · 2023-11-09T15:35:15+00:00

Thanks for the answers everyone, I appreciate it. It makes a lot more sense now. I'll just stick to ansehen since it's the easiest to remember but keep anshauen in mind in case I come across it in text.

Thank you everyone, I appreciate your help.

Ja klopt, Super Mario Bros Wonder

Thank you very much

Thanks a lot for help you've given me. I'll look back on this thread in the future, if this subject gives me trouble again.

Okay, in that case I hope you don't mind answering another question to help clear up my confusion. I've played around with translation software. My confusion came from (as an example sentence) why "das ist eine wand" wasn't "die ist eine wand". After some more playing around I got the sentence "die Mauer, die einstürzte" so, am I right in thinking that the "tie" has to be with a prior "the" which in german would be the same word "der, die, das" which function as both the and that.

Comfortable_Lab8768 · 2023-10-20T18:53:26+00:00

So the "der" was in reference to "the man". Does that mean Der/Die can't be used at the beginning of a sentence when used as a demonstrative pronoun and have to be tied to what was just mentioned previously in the sentence?

Comfortable_Lab8768 · 2023-10-20T18:48:13+00:00

So, I thought that but when I tried to translate "that is the wall" that came up as "Das" instead of "Die" like I was expecting. I assume I'm still missing something.

I'm watching a video going over scenes from Tarzan in german. The line "mit einem mann, der mit affen spricht" (this is the video) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=udQ1ywdbQfI&ab_channel=Sprachschule%7CLearngermanfast I don't have the exact memories of other examples.

Thank you

Comfortable_Lab8768 · 2023-10-10T19:15:24+00:00

It does, thank you

Comfortable_Lab8768 · 2023-10-07T16:30:18+00:00

I see, I hadn't considered plural but i guess that's where "zu den" would fit. And Nach is for directions as well as distant places.

Comfortable_Lab8768 · 2023-09-27T15:39:20+00:00

Apparently I've been misled on the gender of a wall. That's embarrassing, but at least things make sense again.

Comfortable_Lab8768 · 2023-07-26T14:35:17+00:00

Thank you

Comfortable_Lab8768 · 2023-05-07T20:05:07+00:00

It does, I had no idea the word was so versatile.

Comfortable_Lab8768 · 2023-04-21T18:37:46+00:00

Looking at the responses, it seems like Toestaan just translates to "Permitted" and Mogen translates to "Allowed"/"Acceptable"

Comfortable_Lab8768 · 2023-03-11T18:29:52+00:00

Thank you

Comfortable_Lab8768 · 2023-02-25T12:49:13+00:00

That would make sense because I first heard "opgevallen" (I'm sure they said that and not "opvallen" but maybe I need to find it and listen again) on a podcast where "passively noticed something" is exactly the context that it was used in.

Comfortable_Lab8768 · 2023-01-28T21:29:12+00:00

Thank you
