ask matze? xD He's German.

It isn't, as far as I know. I was like reading the review sheet for the final for third year German (well, third year at my school)... I could like guess half of it. @_@

OMG! HELP! THEY FOUND ME OUT!!!!!! D:

yeah.

I wanted to learned German... but according to like everyone that takes German at my school, the teacher sucks and you don't learn much. >_> I could say the same for the Japanese teacher, but... yeah.

I can offer teaching some words and basic sentences; I can also offer to play a "talking partner", so people can learn from german conversations - But can´t promise any success xD"

Knuckles in China Land (a pc game, I started to play it for at least 1 hour per day, seems good at teaching to recognize Katakana, Hiragana and some Kanji)

that game also can teach german words, but I noticed some mistakes in the nouns when testing it....

Blade isn´t that wrong, I´ve felt the same when getting school english. Both languages have some similiar sounding words with the same meaning. The problem is that there are many "bad friend words" too... For example "still": Here that word means "silence"

DID HE JUST CAPITALIZE MY NAME!?

In english, there´s only 1 "the" for nouns.
In german, there´s 3 "the":
die (for "female" stuff")
der (for "male stuff")
das (for "genderless stuff")

Well, once you're past the Hiragana and Katakana, and you need to learn is the 1,001 Kanji and you're good to go.

for example, there was "Fork" - in the game it was "das Gabel" - but in real it´s "die Gabel" (wonder why they even add "der, die, das".......?)

If that's true, then why does on the back of the German Digimon Gold OST I got at a thrift store it say, "DIE HITS AUS FILM UND US-TV-SERIE"?

Shouldn't they have used the genderless version?

basicly it´s wrong translated, if they add it without the english word having a "the" before it.....

But's it's not a translation, it's a German only version. It just happened to have two songs from the US series and film on it.

"Die" can also be used for "many things". In this case: "Der Hit" (1 hit(-song)) but "Die Hits" (all of them). It´s because there´re several of them on the CD
