    1) Richtig. 2) Okay, aber besser: "Willst du (mit mir) ins Kino gehen?" 3) Diesen Satz kann man nicht gut verstehen. Wolltest Du sagen: "English is my mother tongue, so my German will probably sound a lot like English?" 4) "Sie kommen aus Frankreich, also sprechen sie nicht Deutsch, sondern nur Französisch." "nicht" und "kein" sind beide OK. Die Regel ist: "nicht" + Verb, "kein" + Nomen. Du kannst also entweder sagen "They do not speak German" ("Sie sprechen nicht Deutsch") oder "They speak no German" ("Sie sprechen kein Deutsch") 5) "Es war sehr gut." ist richtig. Wenn das Verb am Anfang steht, dann ist es immer eine Frage: "War es sehr gut?" - "Ja, es war sehr gut." Und: "Ist die Grammatik in diese Sätze richtig?" --> "Ist die Grammatik in diesen Sätzen richtig?" (Dativ)

    Manche Dinge in der deutschen Sprache sind für neue Schüler wirklich unlogisch. Wie man die Jahre ausspricht, muss man einfach auswendig lernen: 0 bis 1099: Einfach die Zahl sprechen. 37 = "Siebenunddreißig (nach Christus)", 211 = "Zweihunderelf (nach Christus), 1078 = "Tausendachtundsiebzig" 1100 bis 1999: Mit "hundert" sprechen. 1314 = "Dreizehnhundertvierzehn" Ab 2000. Einfach die Zahl sprechen. 2087 = "Zweitausendsiebenundachtzig"

    "Pi (π) mal Daumen" bedeutet "ungefähr", "ungenau", "etwa". Zum Beispiel: A: "Wie viele Leute waren auf der Party?" - B: "Keine Ahnung, pi mal Daumen...50 Leute!" (Es waren vielleicht 37 oder 61, aber die Person schätzt einfach eine Zahl. Dafür kann man dieses Sprichwort benutzen.)

    "-ᄅ때마다" versus "-ᄅ때면" Hi community :) Man, Korean has so many fine nuances and similar grammar structrues that it's really hard as foreigner to know which form to use when.. So, for quite some time I've been using the grammar forms of "-면" in if-sentences and "-ᄅ때" in when-sentences. I also learned that "-ᄅ때마다" means "whenever" like in 친구랑 만날 때마다 행복해저. Whenever I meet with my friend I get happy. But recently I saw in a song lyric the following: 힘들 때면 그대 이 노랠 들어요. Whenever you're tired listen to this song. So....confusion time! Why doesn't the singer use "힘들 때마다" or "힘들으면"?? Can somebody clear this fine distinction up for me? Thanks!

    Difference between "는 줄" and "는 걸" in this example? Hi guys, I hope you can help me out! Earlier today I wanted to ask my Korean friend: "Does your mom know you're smoking?" and asked him "니엄마는 너가 담배를 피는 줄 아라?" He answered my question but told me it would be even better to say "니엄마는 너가 담배를 피는 걸 아라?", even though both sound correct to him. Unfortunately he couldn't explain the difference. From my grammar lessons I remember that "걸 아라" means "to know the fact/the thing" while "줄 아라" often has a nuance of "to think that ..." but can also mean "to know that ..." Can you maybe help me clarify? Are both ways correct to say my example sentence? Thank you!

    Die beste Variante ist: "Ich bin 14 Tage jünger als Du." Meistens sagt man aber eher "Du bist 14 Tage älter als ich."

    "As much as" - difference between 만큼 and 도록 Hi there! So, I recently came across the Korean grammar forms "만큼" and "-도록", and got the understanding that both are used for saying "I do Verb1 so much that Verb2", or "Doing V1 to the point where V2". I am having a hard time separating their meanings, so maybe you could help me out? For instance, how would I say "I love you so much that I die" 나는 죽을 만큼 너를 사랑해. OR--- 나는 죽도록 너를 사랑해. "I ate so much that my belly really hurts" 내 배가 진짜 아픈 걸 만큼 많이 먹었어. OR--- 내 배가 진짜 아프도록 많이 먹었어. Thanks a lot in advance!

    Korean "to want to do V" - "고파" instead of "고 싶어"? Hey italki friends! :) Recently I heard the Korean phrase "고파" increasingly often. I read somewhere that this is a casual way to say "I want to..." like using "고 싶어". Could you maybe explain me if it means excactly the same? So "I want to eat" would be "먹고파"? Another question...I saw a Facebook post of a Korean friend who wrote "바다 보곱파" ...why does she say "보곱파" and not "보고파"? Is this dialect? Thanks for clearing that form up for me!!

    Ah thanks a bunch for looking! Well, seems to me now, that "올 때마다" is perfectly valid 8-/

    Yeah I read this already, but thanks :) As you noticed the example for 가다 and 오다 when used with -ㄹ 때 마다 is missing there - thus I came here and asked :D If you find more information, Mojave, I'd be happy if you shared it :D
