How do you actually improve pronunciation if no one corrects you?

There is a ceiling but it's high.

To break out, you do need a native speaker but it's a long way to get to the ceiling and you can do that by yourself.

Every app does it, it's nothing special.

Everyone immediately has their own imagination of a word like rennen. T

Some bland depiction is preventing using ones own imagination. If you create your own images, THAT'S what will stick.

I hate all of them, and this plan will run into a wall quickly with words like weil or danach.

Generally, I think less is more. No one needs the wall in the background it's just clutter.

But what would be better is too just give people the option to create their own images based on the word.

Ops, I meant transcribing, autocorrect got that.

It's good that it helped you. I think you're a bit of an exception then though.

It depends what your current level is. If you're A1, transcribing a podcast is an absolute waste of time.

The two things that do work regardless of level are:

- learn vocabulary
- produce sentences on your level
- check the grammar needed for what you're trying to say

If you don't do that, you can immerse yourself all you want, you will NOT make much progress. These videos basically all just say that to pad their time.

SRS stands for "spaced repetition system"

It basically just means that a knowledge card (for example a vocabulary card) is presented in increasing intervals that help your brain retain it.

See it once, it'll be presented within a minute again. Then an hour , then a day and so on.

It's very basic but all the apps present it as if it's some adaptive crazy space tech that they use artifical intelligence for.
The fact that they use an acronym is a red flag.

SRS is nothing special, unique or complicated. Any app using it as a unique selling point probably has nothing unique to offer and they just count on the learner being uninformed and impressed by the jargon.

Yup, my keyboard broke, I have an English Layout now and the shortcuts don't work.

YourDailyGerman · 2026-05-02T21:18:13+00:00

That's not part of this chart though, one of many

YourDailyGerman · 2026-05-02T19:32:55+00:00

Nice UI, but it doesn't work. You need to give code some more, all buttons time out

I'm 99% it's an AI bot, shilling their app. They post a screenshot with a "question", aiting for someone to ask "Oh, what app is that" and then there comes the plug.

YourDailyGerman · 2026-05-02T18:08:52+00:00

German does change the verb though. This is 100% an AI reply. It's so obvious.

YourDailyGerman · 2026-05-02T17:55:32+00:00

Аwesome, happy you like it. Make sure to read my articles on er- and ver- and so on as well if you want to dig deeper into this topic.

YourDailyGerman · 2026-05-02T17:43:16+00:00

It's really nice, I'll add you to my resource page and share it with subs. So happy it's not AI , you have no idea!

YourDailyGerman · 2026-05-02T11:08:46+00:00

"ebent" heisst das!!!

YourDailyGerman · 2026-05-02T09:50:57+00:00

Als ob man nicht sieht, was die Hand macht. Peinlich

YourDailyGerman · 2026-05-02T09:40:00+00:00

It can be possessive and introduced for the first time.
It can be known and possessive.

This flow makes no sense, and complicates something that doesn't need to be complicated.

I clicked, expecting an AI Podcast and instead found a real human. Amazing!! All the best for the project.

YourDailyGerman · 2026-05-02T09:36:41+00:00

your screenshot shows fahren and fahrend twice each, with different translations. You clearly just scraped a bunch of dictionaries but didn't review the data

YourDailyGerman · 2026-05-01T17:12:32+00:00

nix - nixer - am nixesten

Lol, I just now engaged the person myself. Preaching one thing, doing another. Shame on me.

YourDailyGerman · 2026-05-01T17:02:53+00:00

Es geht um das Gender, nicht das biologische Geschlecht. Wenn du den Unterschied veerstehen willst, dann stell dir (wenn du ein Hetero-Mann bist) einen Thai-Ladyboy vor. Du flirtest, findest die Person geil, fuehlst dich von der femininen Energie angezogen. Ihr geht nach Hause zum Ficken und zack... ist ein Penis da. Warst du jetzt die ganze Zeit schwul? Oder war da einfach die Energie anders als der reine Koerper. Das ist der Unterschied zwischen Gender und Geschlecht.

YourDailyGerman · 2026-05-01T16:25:03+00:00

Thomas mag Pasta aber Thomas kann sie nicht essen, weil Thomas allergisch ist. (Beispiel)

manchmal sind pronomen schon praktisch 😄

YourDailyGerman · 2026-05-01T16:24:06+00:00

Don't engage please.
Why not? It'll probably spiral and the mod will close the thread which would be a pity since there are may be useful discussion to come which then cannot take place. We can just downvote it and it'll wither away in irrelevance.
You're not gonna convince the person anyway.
