just remember that ich_iel has a lot of fun with literal translations of english words which can lead to very weird german.
Nur erinnere, dass ich_iel ein Los des Spaßes mit literarischen Übersetzungen von englischen Wörtern hat, was zu seltsamen Deutsch bleien kann.
lmao bleien
Ich nicht.
Viel Spaß dabei!
Does anyone know what is the deal with the images (I assume it’s some kind of German meme) of people or characters with instant ramen on their head?
The noodles are just my signature. So just ignore the noodels. They have nothing todo with the meme directly. I just place them on the head of whoever in the meme is me.
Might be the wrong answer, but I think it's kind of a signature of the creator... Sth with insta in his name
Ding ding ding You are Correct!! :D All the memes with instant noodels are from me. Its my signature. :)
It is
I just blocked the communities 😅

God bless you?

Ich würde mich auch blockieren.
What are you subscribed to, to be seeing that many?
I think I've seen a couple tops in recent memory.
Depends on how you sort. If you sort by "top of last 1/6 hours" you will see lots of stuff from other languages.
I browse by All with the Hot sort.
I see German posts constantly. I think because they might not be language tagged correctly?
Not making the language tag mandatory is one of the bigger lost chances of Lemmy. I can't even select it in my client.
I have set mine to show me all and sort by new by default, lol. (If I get bored I may temporarily chenge to hot and top.)
I was thinking about it for a while. The posts encouraged me. The prospect of possibly wanting to leave the US in the next year or two depending on things also makes me want to learn a second language.

No, but I've seen a few French posts (nowhere near as much as German) and it's been a good chance to practise my French.

I've been learning German for a few years (very slowly) now with Duolingo. I see a lot of Spanish posts too (especially on masto) and have been enjoying how the fediverse encourages me to work on my languages.
Number of German-language posts? I'm somehow not seeing those. I am however a native speaker of German already, so no need anymore to learn it.
I find it hard to imagine learning a language that I don't foresee myself using at least once a week IRL
I've tried learning French and German but honestly I very rarely encounter speakers of those languages and can count on one hand the number that don't also speak English.
I've been learning Spanish though for nearly a year to great success.
I know some German (B1), but it's been a few years since I had classes and those posts help me brush up my German (though they are a bit advanced for my level).
Trouble with ich_iel is that they usually translate English words literally into German. Even names or English words that exist in German. The worse the translation the better.
So, uh, don't learn everything from them.
My favorite is using "Windleitblech" for spoiler.
I invented this one like 8 months ago 😁
What, my first dialect of German shouldn't be epic memer?
I doubt the issue is your ability to speak/read German but the heavy use of Zangendeutsch.
Why would anyone do that😔
(Tnx for the site btw)
Not only because of that, but it was definitely a factor.
I'd be interested in learning, because German is the biggest contributor to modern English along with French. Of course the split happened long, long ago, but still...
It would have to be a couple years though, after I (knock on wood) am done getting to about B2/C1 on French.
I took spanish in school but if I had to do over would have likely done french but german is second choice.
