You can actually select what languages you want to see in settings. Which is a step up from reddit. Only weird thing is you ALSO have to select "undetermined" language besides English and whatever else.

yup that is also my signal for "you have exhausted all the English lemmy content from now on it is all Deutschland"
I'm in europe, but I've actually been learning german these past few months so i see German posts as free practice
I read German memes to practice German.
Wahrlich nicht kringelig
Same but I'm from Australia. Ich_iel is pretty much German Duolingo to me at this point.
Be aware that part of ich_iel humour in no small part consits of comically literal translations of English expressions. That has nothing to do with proper German and as a learner you probably won't be able to spot the difference.
Bad idea to try to learn German there.
Yeah it is pretty good practice for puzzling out meaning
The German on ich_iel can be "creative"
Another one making the mistake of learning German by ich_iel-memes.
Nein. Das ist zeit für Deutsch lernen. Dann du kannst Scheißposts in zwei Sprachen machen
Just to be completely correct it would have been: "Nein, dann ist Zeit um Deutsch zu lernen! So kann man Scheiß-Posts in zwei Sprachen verfassen." The english for is correctly translated with the preposition "um" and it is uncommon to use you as we have the pronoun "man" for such cases. But it is actual better German than you hear in my place most of the time.
Hmm, let me try.
No. This is not for German learning. Then you can't shit post in the Spray Machine.
How close did I get?
Pretty close, but you skipped some nouns and you have too many "not"s in your sentence. The correct translation is "no, that is the time for learning German. Then you can shitpost in two languages". Zeit is the word for time, and Sprachen means languages.
This is what I meant. I’m still learning German, so there may be mistakes.
Thank you!
Zeit threw me off and had no idea what Sprachen machen meant.
Machen -> make
The translation by amoistgrandpa is "Then you can shitpost in two languages", which is good English, a more literal translation would be "then you can make shitposts in two languages"
Or speak-things, depending on how spicy you want to get translating Sprachen.
I only speak a very tiny bit of German so apologies if I get this wrong, but this reads like English forced into German.
No. That is time for German learning. Then you can shitpost in two languages make.
Oh wow I just realized that there's the weird make in the end so maybe it was proper German after all?
Lol, you did good, but got tripped up by reading "Scheißposts" as a verb. It's capitalized, so it's a noun. The "make" at the end gets folded into the "kannst" - or "can" - so it's "Then you can make shitposts in two languages."
Guten Morgen aus Deutschland, nimm ein Brötchen
Das geht doch besser
ich nehme gern eine mit mohn danke sehr
Die Mohntagsknuspersonne oder den Mehrkorngoldmohnd?
(sorry this joke is probably impossible to understand for non-Germans)
yes
Die Amis schlafen...
1 Meter = 10 Decimeter = 100 Zentimeter
1 Kilometer = 1.000 Meter
I forgot that your heathens use "." Instead of "," in numbers. I was very confused
Swiss system is best system: apostrophes for thousands, either dot or comma for decimals. Completely unambiguous for anyone even if you're seeing it for the first time: 12'345.67
I hate how it looks but I can't deny the superiority
That is interesting. I like it. Wondering if I can use it at work or in code. Hmmm

1 Liter Wasser = 1 Kilogramm
1000 Liter = 1 Kubikmeter
I've, legit, learned a decent amount of German just by having Google translate up on my second monitor browsing lemmy late at night.
Gute Nacht
Jetzt schon?
