Every now and then I just save the German memes and send them to my English group chats to make sure they're confused too.

Right? I think they're underestimating the comedic value of dropping a half understood meme in an American group chat.

It's frustrating because I don't know German. I still click the links every time.

Germans browsing Lemmy at 3am: Guten Morgen

Edit: I used AI to make this. I’m not proud, but I am lazy.

I've deleted memrise and am strictly learning German through these memes, I'm confident I'll be fluent by the end of the year.

Attempt at translation:
Excuse me but my male female German person is bad. In the Inglish please?

[–] simop_jo@lemmy.world 6 points 1 month ago

That moment you finally understand German and realise all the Stör and Tisch memes are just simple word plays.

I'm in Ohio and my German is meh but I can understand 65%ish of what I see. It helps I lived in Duesseldorf for a year, but that was over 35 years ago so it doesn't help enough.
