Welcome Liudmila. and thank you for the encouraging comment
speaking German is a particular challenge for me. I have not found harder accentuation to speak words than that of the Germans. I must be strong and clear. However, the pronunciation is in fact not as difficult as I have thought before.
In fact without the correct accentuation speaking German seems incomplete. You need a real German to teach you that
nice
Thank you so much! This is so useful! :)
welcome Britanny :)
Hey, just a note, and I am by no means a German, just a lover of the language, but should it not be, in the dative plural "(mit) Meinen Freunden" because all nouns in the dative and an "-n" when applicable?
du hast recht..the noun takes an "n" after it when dative and plural
