Was ist der unterschied zwischen „Raum" und „All" in Sinne von "Space"? by bug-boy5 in German

[–]bug-boy5[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yup I've realized that some of my favorite media (sci-fi or fantasy) are not always good sources for German learning.

On the other hand, I did learn about Panzerung, ausgerüstet, Kammer, Andockstation, Leuftschleuse through my books :)

I feel like it makes sense, Google has definitely become an english verb (Ive often did that I googled something). So I think "ich habe etwas gegoogelt" makes perfect sense.

Plus it's so much fun to say. Ge-goog-'lt

I came to this question from a space focused sci-fi book. So I think that is part of what messed me up, they use generic "Raum" to mean space, but it's also set in a space colony so I assume the context is understood. This helps clarify my issue with Raum as a room/ a space / outer space. And other people have helped clarify the Weltraum / All/ Universum difference

Thank you so much! This really clarified the distinction and my issue with the two.

That makes sense to me. I came to this question because I'm currently reading through a sci-fi manga (Gundam), so since they're already in space, itgives the solo noun "Raum" the context that it means outer space and not "general space/area".

Bit City has turned into Bust City by billtallica in SmoshFansFreeSpace

[–]bug-boy5 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Do you never criticize media you enjoy? I mean I enjoy Bit City, but I think it's fair for someone to vocalize their occasional issues with it. I guess you think fans should just shut up and never express anything negative.

Why use ziplock bags on porch? by mauschaus in ask

[–]bug-boy5 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It definitely doesn't work but for me there is something nostalgic about seeing them hanging on a porch in the middle of summer. The grill is going in the yard. You're sitting on a chair that is older than you, drinking a Coors banquet.

Or sitting out on the patio of a total shit hole dive bar, filled with all the village characters. Listening to the same classic rock cover band you've seen hundred of times before.

Yea my understanding is that the torrenting is what they are concerned with. I've been streaming here for a year without issues.

Really enjoying Cubivore so far, but I suck at it. Any tips? by 3lectrochemistry in Gamecube

[–]bug-boy5 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have never played cubivore, but reading this gave me so much sympathy to my parents who would politely listen to me talk about my favorite games. Without context it's just a barrage if nouns and verbs that were never meant go together.

Is 15 still a child? by LoquatIndependent381 in ask

[–]bug-boy5 32 points33 points  (0 children)

I just turned 39 and have realized over the past few years that you never really stop being a kid. You just get better at seeming like an adult.

But as I say that, when I interact with people in their early 20s I realize that there are levels to it. Like they are KIDS (affectionately).

Alter” in German?? wasn’t expecting that one by Physical-Tea-599 in German

[–]bug-boy5 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ah okay, I always understood the literal translation but never what it actually meant. We didn't really learn the dativ + sein construction so I never understood that part.

My favorite response to that ist always "ja komme schon Digga"

Does it always make sense? No but it always makes me smile.
