German is a weird language...
for example:
In Dutch (my native language) the word for Lake is "Meer" but in German the word "Mer" means Sea and the dutch word for Sea is "Zee", but in german "Zee" means Lake lol
And, Blow in dutch (blazen) means "suck" in german and suck (zuigen in dutch) means "blow" in german o_O
this might have been confusing, but german is a weir language for sure o.o;
I never know whether to use Der, Die, or Das cause i can't remember all the namefalle >_<
Unlike english, german and dutch both have a formal version of You.
German: Sie (note the capital S =P, Sie = formal you and sie = you (when talking to/about females)
Dutch: U (yes, the U has to be capitalized =P)
@Meow:
African is not a language btw, its "Afrikaans" wich is derived from Dutch. i can understand afrikaans quite well even though i never spoke it =P
ps: try try pronouncing Sch from Scheveningen =P
its harder than you think
