This is not a conventional method of learning a new language, but it can be a fun way. Today, I can say that I can also speak the German language, thanks to the various sites that helped me to achieve my goal. I have learned it without a teacher, using a book and an Internet site, which suggested the readers learn German sentences. Yes, I have learned German using a book which forced me just to remember given sentences without worrying too much about the grammar or even the learned words.
“Der Tee ist gut” – this is the first sentence I learned in German which by the way means “The tea is good” and after this my first sentence I learned a lot of other sentences. And moreover, with this method of learning sentences in German I have learned not only a lot of words but also I have learned German grammar perfectly.
To be honest, German grammar is more difficult when compared with English grammar. Learning the grammar of any language is a real challenge, especially when it comes to German. There many different rules which one has to follow. So it is obvious that one cannot speak German without making mistakes. But learning German words is not difficult because they are pretty similar to the words used in English. The only difference between English and German words is in their pronunciation.
Why do you think I suggest you learn German sentences before going into its grammar? Simply because I succeeded in learning German language using sentences that way, when I was only 12 years old.
