Hello! I'm 28 year old student mechanical project engineer from the UK and I've started learning German (eeeekkk) I love the language and want to be able to communicate in Germany, get to know new people and have fun in the process. And of course, I eventually I want to move to my favourite city in the world, the eclectic and eccentric BERLIN! Language partners, if you're German and you need help with your English then I would be happy to oblige in exchange for some German tips :) Please only contact me if you are a native German speaker! Thank you :D

    What types of verbs do not demand the dativ? I'm watching a youtube video about the dativ and they have said that you can identify whether the article of the noun demands the dativ by the verb in the sentence. She uses the word helfen as an example. Is it as simple as the verbs that are "done to" a thing are the ones that are dativ? Like you give help to someone, you give something to someone, you send something to someone? If so, what types of verbs aren't "done to"? Is it just things like "must" and "want"? Can someone give me some examples as I'm getting confused! Thank you

    It's difficult for me to get out of bed.

    It's difficult for me to get out of bed. Sometimes I wake up with insomnia and I stretch a lot in bed. I have my breakfast at 7.00am and after that I take a shower. I spend the rest of the day watching videos or listening to music, in English of course. When I'm bored I like to ride my motorcylce and go out with my friends.

    You can say "assisted" but it sounds a bit formal and awkward. More casually you can say "I'm already being helped" or "Thank you, your colleague is already helping me" Also there isn't a huge difference between a clerk, salesman or an assistant, they all work in customer service. Clerk is an American term, we don't use it much in England. From what I know a clerk would work more in a bank or at the post office (something like that). A salesman is more likely to be taking an active role in "selling" something. An assistant may just operate the till or do basic customer service rather than the "hard sell" of a salesman who may work on commission and will probably be an expert in the product they are trying to sell.

    ELECTION! An "erection" is something VERY different ;) 勃起


    Election

    3 days ago we had an election for selecting new councilors. This time was big very different from former ones (or "previous elections") as 18 year old people (or "18 year olds) was are now able to vote. By last Before this election, people only had a right to vote from 20 years old. As a result of that ***  54.7% of people who have a the right went to vote. It is said that more and more young people should vote.


    ***Do you mean by result of the new rules? If so you should say something like - "As a result of the change in the minimum age of voting...." or if you mean before the change in voting age you could say "Because of the restrictions on the age of voting, only 54.7% of those eligible to vote turned out to vote.

    IELTS letter 150 words

    Task: You rent a four-bedroom house, which you share with two other students. However, there are several problems with this house that need fixing. You also find it expensive and would like to find another student to share the spare bedroom.
    Write a letter to the estate agency. In the letter explain your situation, describe the problems with the house, say what you would like to happen.

    Dear Sir or Madam

    I am renting a four-bedroom house and share it with two other students. Currently we are experiencing some problems with the house, which we want to fix with your help (or "which we need your help with fixing"). The flow of hot water in the bathroom are is very low (or "there isn't a good flow of hot water in the bathroom"). We decided to order call a plumber, but the question is, who will foot a the bill? We Us or house owner (better would be "the owner of the house" or "the landlord")? Also the window in my room (next to the main staircase) does not fit the frame neatly properly, so there is little bit noisy and and windy  it is very noisy when it is windy. And The most obvious issue which we raised the same day we observed viewed the house is the refrigerator. It has not been replaced yet, even though this is in the contract (or "this was a clause in the contract") clauses.

    And Last but not least, we have realised that the price for a the rent is quite high and we would like to call on your company (or "we would like your assistance in finding a fourth person") to find an additional fourth person who are is willing to rent the last unoccupied bedroom (+ you could add "which could help to spread the cost"). 

    (Please, respond my complains as soon as possible, especially the complain regarding to refregirator.)

    Please can my complaints be acted upon/rectified as soon as possible, with the refrigerator as top priority.

    Looking forward on your help (You could say "Thank you in advance for your assistance, looking forward to hearing from you")
