I would like to learn German as it is the the language I learned in high school and since have forgot. I would like to gain that knowledge back. I want to meet interesting people in the world and having a skill of more than one language is a great tool.
I am open to helping someone learn English. I would like to read email, or chat via skype. I can do email daily but Skype would probably only be a few times a week but I am also open to daily. The only type of learning I have not had was immersion, and I think it may be time. I am an adult so I am less embarrassed about making mistakes. I feel it is time to finally do this.
Adrianne is trying to master A1 level of German. Nice work! Keep it up! Thank you!

I am unsure about this context, but it can sometimes refer to a point system.
So if you ate a good piece of cake, you can rate it 10 out of 10 on a scale of 1 to 10 meaning it is really good. so 10/10.
If the cake was bland, it could be 3/10.
Some people use this for appearance of people. A really beautiful person would be a 10.

Should be at least 18 years old and not have or ever had a restoration of political rights.
I hope this helps. The above seems to flow a little better, and I think gets the idea that you want across.

This is an idiom. "To throw down the gauntlet" means to issue a challenge. So the senator is issuing a challenge to the revenue pinchers. 'Revenue pinchers" is probably a reference to someone who has a hard time letting go of money.

I believe this has a sexual reference. In the USA, some people say men or boys don't think with their heads. They say they think with their penis. So to keep the brains in his head means he wants to think clearly, not think with other regions, like his penis.

An air mattress is something you sleep on. Like if you are visiting someone and they make room for you by blowing up this mattress.
A pool lounger or raft is different. It is something you use to relax in the pool with.
I hope this helps you.

You could write: " I apologize, but I had a typo in the email address. I am sending it again and have corrected the mistake.
There are many ways to say this and it happens frequently.

I need some advice on where to start for learning the rules to German.
I need some help to start learning German. I took some in high school and a little in college but forgot it.
I do not understand perfect tense, dative, accusative and nominative and things like that. I often get the word order confused. Is there somewhere online I can go to read about this? I had a lesson on here and it was helpful, but I would like to supplement it with some other reading / practice. Any suggestions?
