- It's possible (talking out of own experience). The problem (if you'd like to speak of that) I think lies not with race, but with culture and/or religion; you will need to make sure you agree on the very basics (fundamental thoughts) of life and at least accept some practices you might not be used to. If that's not the case, then in the beginning you might find it easy to overcome because you are (deeply) in love. Later when the love turns into another kind oflove, things might get more and more difficult. So, my advice is, sort things out right from the beginning; it will make both your lifes a lot easier. And be wise, if someone is not willing to change, don't force it, it's of no use.0 votedSeptember 19, 20080
- just additional: 1) The 'a' in hallo is pronounced as the 'a' in afternoon. As for the rest, it's pronounced the same as hello 2) You is both formal and informal. A formal thank you is 'dank u'/'dankuwel'. Informally, it's 'dank je'/'dankjewel'. Again the 'a' is pronounced the same as above. The 'u' is pronounced as a German 'ü' (I don't know if you're familiar with it?), 'je' is prounced as y in you and the a from as in a (cat/dog/whatever). 'wel': w holds the middle between an english v and w. the e-sound is like in best. Of course you have different sayings for hello (see WDF81) and thank you...0 votedMay 21, 20080
- Nominativ = subject Akkusativ = direct object Also, there are a few prepositions/verbs after which an Akkusativ always follows. Example: Der Mann sieht den Spanier. (the man sees the Spaniard) Der Spanier sieht den Mann. (the Spaniard sees the man) Die Frau kann nicht leben ohne ihren Mann (the woman can't live withour her man/husband). So you have different conjugations for the Akk. an Nom. (which are btw only noticeable for male gender words or plural words.) I can explain this more, if you would like to...0 votedMay 6, 20080
- right and correct are very much the same, and almost completely interchangeable. The difference is that right is more confirming that it's positive (it's good), while correct is confirming that it is not negative (no error, see Jane's comment). So, a very small nuance. (btw, correct and right also share the same original stem from Latin (regere --> correctus, rectus)) For true, see Jane's comment, although 1+1=2 is also true.0 votedApril 27, 20080
