    some of the most common mistakes comitted when learning German, and what I hear sooo often walking through Vienna and talking to foreigners- (and maybe you can find yourself in it ??? :-) ) 1. forgetting about adding an article: In the supermarket I m getting asked : "Willst du Rechnung" ???? thats such a classic, and many persons forget about this all the time. We need in German most of the time an article: So all this could work: Willst du DIE Rechnung? Willst du EINE REchnung? Willst du DEINE Rechnung? so dont forget to put something before the noun :-) 2. Mixing up imperative with no-imperative :-) Ich: "Entschuldigung, wo ist der nächste Billa?" Antwort: "Gehst du geradeaus, und siehst du Billa auf linken Seite". another classic- (we call it Ausländer-Deutsch). BUT: the Imperativ form comes without the personal pronouns.: "Geh geradeaus!!! (Und dann findest du DEN Billa auf DER linken Seite") :-) I know its not always easy, to be attentive all the time, and also not to speak perfect (in case you are one of these perfectionists) :-) , but maybe its good to know about this quite typical mistakes :-) Good luck!

    to learn dialect makes sense if you really are interested to get to know the austrians. to understand their songs, movies and so on.... of course dialect is a part of the austrian soul. but if you are not so much into social study, then its enough to learn standard German :-)

    it depends if you refer to the austrian dialect or the official austrian German. (Germany, Austria and Switzerland have all their own official version which differ a bit in grammar, vocabulary, but its 97 percent the same). If you live in Austria I highly recommend to study with a book providing austrian German like "Pluspunkt Deutsch" ", "Schritte Plus Österreich". When I worked with other German books with my students it was sometimes quite frustrating, because I always needed to add: well, this is written in that book, but actually nobody says this, etc..... the book "Lagune" for example is very "Germany German" and with a lot of words and even grammar which we would say so different. if its about dialect, unfortunately there isnt a lot really good material, but you could try "Kauderwelsch Wienerisch", a book what could help you to get a glimpse of the dialect-system. also you can have a look here: https://aus-oesterreich.at/Buecher-Oesterreich/Dialekt-Mundart
