    Über mich Hallo alle, ich habe seit fast eins Monat italki benutzt, um mein Deutsches Sprachen zu verbessern. Bis jetzt, habe ich keinen Notizbucheintrag gemacht. Obwohl das Lesen und das Schreiben nicht das Wichtigste für mich sind, habe ich gedacht, dass ich versuchen soll. Also werde ich begginen, über mich zu schreiben. Ich bin Nick und ich komme aus Großbritannien. Ich wohne in Sheffield, im Norden von England. Ich bin Musiker und Musiklehrer; ich spiele Klavier und Gitarre und ich bin auch Sänger. Es gibt einige Gründe warum ich Deutsch lerne. Erstens, mache ich für acht Wochen pro Jahr einen Ausbildungskurs in Bayern. Die andere Teilnehmer können English sprechen, aber einige der Einheimischen sprechen nur Deutsch. Zweitens, meine Großmutter war Deutscher, also habe ich einige Familie in Deutschland. Wenn ich die Sprache spreche, könnte ich meine Familie besser kennenlernen. Also, habe ich lange Zeit verbracht, diese Nachricht zu screiben. Hoffentlich, werde ich schneller in die Zukunft.

    If I may add a comment as someone who is currently learning German, I think 2 years sounds like a huge amount of time. Let me explain my own learning situation to explain my answer.

     

    Although I had some previous experience with the language at school (2 years), I left knowing almost nothing because it was not a useful method of learning for me. I then studied using audio courses, from time to time over 2 years, but wasn't really serious so didn't make any progress. 

     

    I recently set myself the goal of being at B2 level by October and have been studying much more seriously, and most importantly much more intelligently. Next week I'll have a routine of speaking the language 5 days out of 7, some of which will have lessons, so I'll know what to work on.

     

    So I'm aiming for B2 level in 5 months. And why not? I believe I can achieve it and I've set out to make it possible, so I think you could easily get to that level in 2 years, though I'd suggest a dealine that is nearer and make your goals both specific and achievable.

    In this situation, the use of 'in fact' is emphasising the word 'do'. This is why it follows 'do' rather than 'age'.

    In this case 'funny' is meant to mean 'strange' rather than 'humourous'. This is quite a common use of 'funny' in English. Sometimes the word is even used to imply both meanings - if something is funny because it is strange.
