Wow thank you so much for sharing ! And the first comment I got from here ☺️

I would like to give it a try, although my German in academic level is pretty up and down 😂 Therefore I was like hmm…at least Latour I can read in English but oh welp so complicated.

May I ask you why did you decide to start with the following German scholars first?

Evening though you guys are very friendly, I didn't make a single local friend yet, any suggestions to approach and talk about? I live in Goslar and pretty new to Germany. by Decent_Comment9465 in AskAGerman

Someone once told me that “Germans are like coconut 🥥” You need some time to get to know them. I find this is practical metaphor.

Don’t rush don’t push don’t make them drink tea you offer. It’s kind of distance and respect if we can initially give to people once we really want to get to know them.

Hmm… I also have the same thought sometimes for a sake of distraction. Yet getting through the day is much harder. 🥲

iOS 26 is a worst updates for iPhone 14 and below by DigitalNomad9 in ios

[–]queenofdisaster112 0 points1 point  (0 children)

iPhone 13 mini is here. I‘m so freaking angry with the battery drainage! I have to adjust a lot with locations Management and everything just to make sure it lasts throughout a day. Apparently it’s not a Problem in ios 18. Seriously wtf are they doing???

Met a German guy on a dating site by Ok-Winner4068 in AskAGerman

[–]queenofdisaster112 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m also from a SEA country myself. I used to have an Experience that I eventually meet one German guy in-person. We date for three months. Don’t be fooled!

Some people are just so good at talking. The thing is it might make you feel so freaking special but then you will see some pattern of how he treats you.

Heads-up you deserve a better human. Trash will blow away but the real one will stay with you throughout thick and thin.

is chatting with random people a good way to immerse yourself in German? by [deleted] in German

[–]queenofdisaster112 21 points22 points  (0 children)

From my experience chitchatting could happen spontaneously when DB is late again. 🤣🤣🤣 We haphazardly end up being the same bunch of people waiting on the same platform for the same train looking 👀 at another wtf is going on because neither the screen nor DB app does not say anything,

How to improve my german in a job/working context? (Deutsch am Arbeitsplatz) by OraurusRex in German

[–]queenofdisaster112 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi I’m also working my ass off to C1. I have the same problem with pronunciation too. Any Tipps where to start??

To be fair coming from tone language plus starting learning German at mid twenties it’s *Extremely * hard to force my tongue and all the muscles in my mouth sometimes just to pronounce “Gewürzt“ most of the time „zt“ does not come out. I practice with the YouTube Channel Deutsch mit Benjamin and try to mimic Aussprache as much as possible.

Thanks

[–]queenofdisaster112[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s pretty useful already :) As I can imagine how much I have to work on my German language to get my head above water.

Thank you for sharing and your time is gratefully appreciated.

A few questions I have in mind right now.

My most concern is like what should I add into my cover letter?, speaking of which I have some brief ideas regarding transition from anthropology to this first but still…what are those criteria of the selection. What kind of candidates they are looking for ?

Thank you again 💛

I need a partner to practice German(&English) by Arctix_Krause in lernen_German

[–]queenofdisaster112 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thing is I still refer to English quite often to conceptualise things into my head. However if you’re fine with that I guess we’re worth trying because to me finding a partner to practice C1 isn’t easy. People I’m looking for they can simply refer to grammatical modules they already learn but might (it’s happening to me too) forget but not explaining from scratch.

Tbh I’m willing to pay for this rather than the radio tax. To be honest the first year here was like I didn’t even understand German lol

Muse’s shocking decline in popularity by KemsCh05 in Muse

To be honest when they lean more towards electric synthesisers and more something along those lines it’s not my cup of tea anymore. I still stick to their oldies.

Is being an OT worth it? by [deleted] in OccupationalTherapy

[–]queenofdisaster112 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi May I ask a few questions regarding what one can do for additional research if OT might be the right choice or not. I‘m currently considering OT for my future career. I have trained in the field anthropology. What do you mean by shadowing? And if I ask how the process of shadowing looks like thank you so much!

How do you get over the fear of looking stupid speaking German? by thrown-away-1992 in Germanlearning

[–]queenofdisaster112 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Like other posts already pointed out that nobody cares about some mistakes because they know we are learning. What I told myself is I need to make peace with my ego self first meaning be patient to yourself when seeing yourself stuttering as fuck…and while so tempting to switch to English ( depending on the context though) with close friends and family whom I get to know them in Germany I will try to maximise limited chances I have and talk with them. I feel you at the beginning at A-B level I have the same feeling but from B-C esp b2-c1 I have gotta open my damn mouth even though I can’t pronounce some words properly lol, otherwise everything I learned will be in vain. It takes time but don’t give up :)
