I wouldn´t listen, to how the words are said in german, because I realized, that all electronic language programs, do this wrong. I am german, so if you want, I can help you with the language, for free of course! You can contact me under lisagi1987@yahoo.de

Web sites are not the way to learn, but in a pinch, you have to make do. As a German teacher, I often get this question. I have sent a number people to this site with varied success, but all seemed to think it was easy to use and had some promise. Try the BBC free language course, it can't hurt, but make sure to take a phrase book along as well and learn something about the culture.

To learn to speak beginner's German
you will need to learn and remember about 700 things!
(400 vocabulary words, 300 genders and 25 grammar points) Intermediate German requires learning and remembering about 2200 items! (1500 vocabulary, 700 genders and 100 grammar pts) with traditional courses, it will take you about 3 months to speak beginner's German... and 9 months to speak intermediate German Our linkword German teaches you beginner's German in 1 week of study and intermediate German in less than 1 month because it was designed by a world recognized memory expert.

There are several Web sites where one can learn German for free. There are even Podcasts that help you with that. One site you can consider is deutsche welle. Surf around the page I provided a link for below. They offer different courses.

A fun site to check out is Germanizer.

German....no language is that difficult to learn if it's something you're genuinely interested in. Several people (Germans and native English speakers) have told me that learning German is difficult, but I haven't found it to be. Learning the language is something I'm interested in and that helps a lot in absorbing and making sense of the language.

Good luck!

You might want to try freetranslation.com to find out what your saying. Also if your looking to hear the pronunciation, you might want to try dictionary.com and listen to how the word is said in german. I hope that helps.

Forget websites and tuition schemes. The best way is to make conversation with a German speaker to get the general hang of things. Try to use German words and get to grips with the basics. If you're really adventerous, you can try German TV, radio or papers. You'll be suprised at what you recognise.

Don't worry about getting it wrong or that someone tells you it's said differently. I worked as a translator for a year and the number of arguments I'd have with other German speakers, because, just like in English, there's more than one way of saying things! I'd even get told my English was incorrect! As long as you can be understood, you'll be fine!

You'll find most Germans (except the older generation) are quite happy with English and would probably be grateful at the opportunity to practise their English and never let you get a chance to use your hard practised German.

How many times at work, as the only German speaker do I get asked to call Germany and when I'm asked where I'm calling from they insist on talking English - it's infuriating at times!

If I can help by conversation, I'm happy to try, just mail me.
