Agh, German is such a harsh language... // Uh, nemački je baš grub jezik…

I don't think I've ever heard so many bad comments about a language, as I did about German... Have you noticed the same?
Let's say that the adjectives that I hear most often in the same sentence with German are: harsh, ugly, difficult, complicated...
Mislim da ni za jedan jezik nisam čula toliko negativnih komentara kao za nemački… Da li ste i vi primetili istu stvar?

Recimo da sam najčešće čula sledeće: "Nemački je grub/ružan/težak/komplikovan…"

When talking about the last two (difficult/complicated) - I'm sure you've seen (and maybe even liked with approval) that viral photo, or namely the thought about life being too short to learn German.

Kada smo kod ova dva poslednja (težak/komplikovan) - sigurno ste zapazili (i možda i s odobravanjem lajkovali) onu popularnu sliku tj. misao da je život suviše kratak da bi neko učio nemački.

What should the Germans say about this then? // Šta bi onda Nemci trebalo da kažu? ;-)

Ich bin neu hier...

Hello world!
In august 2016 I finally decided to embark on the adventure of learning the German language. I’ve set a goal for myself to reach the B2 level of the CEFR during the next year (until summer of 2017, that is). Is this an ambitious objective? I would say that it is, but I definitely think of it as achievable.

I’m starting this blog with the idea of sharing interesting links, useful websites and books with fellow German learners, as well as my impressions and tips about language learning.

Zdravo svima!

Avgusta 2016. odlučila sam da se konačno upustim u avanturu učenja nemačkog jezika. Postavila sam sebi neki provizorni cilj, a to je da u narednih godinu dana dostignem B2 nivo. Da li je to ambiciozan cilj? Rekla bih da jeste, ali svakako mislim da je izvodljiv.

Ovaj blog započinjem u želji da sa ostalim učenicima nemačkog podelim zanimljive linkove, korisne sajtove i knjige, kao i moje utiske i savete kada je učenje jezika u pitanju.
