Rätsel: Team German TAC Thread

Postby Via Diva » Wed Jul 29, 2015 2:47 am

For those who abandoned the original/ old/ com site comes all brand-new team thread for Team Rätsel.

All formalities later. Send links to your logs here, new materials, feel free to join us - unfortunately a lot of people dropped out during almost 7 months.

We've been discussing a possible Skype conversation #2. Was denkt ihr über diesen Samstag?

I am taking a pause from logging while the forum situation is resolved for the long term.

But my German is still continuing very nicely!

I also should have some time on Saturday for Skype.

If you ask: "Was denkt ihr über diesen Samstag?", a possible answer might be: "Ich denke, dass es ein schöner Tag wird." If you want to know if it's a convenient date, the correct question would be: "Was haltet ihr von diesem Samstag?"

Josquin, thanks! Nothing helps with deciding whether I'm B1 or B2 like the fact that even though I can use some prepositions, I still get them wrong :D

For everyone who wants to participate: nothing is solid yet. Last time the meeting was around 13:00 UTC, and with my +6 UTC time difference I probably can't make it later, but you can join us later/ conduct another session is the timing is too bad.
You also need to send me (here or on the original site) your Skype IDs (or directly to Ccaesar, since he organises the call).
And don't hesitate to join us even if your German is "not good enough"! What I notice all the time is that even non-natives speak German quite... germanly? Eh I don't know how to describe it, but just come online and you won't regret it :)

I'm C2 in English and I still confuse prepositions all the time... :D Really, being at a certain CEFR level more depends on what you're able to say than on the mistakes you may make.

Maybe. But I think I kind of have to know how to say some basic things if I am B2 and you simply can't argue that this was basic :)

You still have some time to join us for this Skype conversation. Not much though, I admit.

Can any mod/admin move this thread in the challenges room? Haven't see that one when I created the thread.

So, wir haben schon wieder geredet, und es war wieder schön :) Aber da war wieder nur drei von uns (ich, Ccaesar und gsbod), und ich glaube, dass diese Mannschaft kann ja besser machen. Lass uns wieder einen guten Tag finden und wieder versuchen, Leute gleiczeitig zu sammeln. Es ist auch die 6WC Zeit, vielleicht kann es uns auch helfen.

Ich bin nicht frei dieser Samstag. Aber ich studiere Deutsch. Ich habe eine Pause gemacht aber ich bin zuruck für die 6wc. Es ist gut das Team in den neuen Forum finden. Und eine Million Fehler in meinem erstem post in Deutsch machen :-D

Ich bin noch nicht sicher, ob es besser hier zu schreiben ist, oder ob ich alte HTLAL benutzen soll. Aber Skype gestern war super und ich hoffe, dass wir bald wieder reden können. Ich habe leider keine Zeit am Wochenende im August, aber vielleicht geht es im September.
