The plural stuff has nine ways, but some are just for crazy foreign words. And I actually can't tell if Manner sounds more right than Männern at first glance. I know to memorize the plural and gender stuff at the same time as the word, so I'm gonna make abnormally comprehensive flashcards.
The pronunciation is easy, but ditching an accent is always a Herculean chore. I more commonly forget the v=f thing than ie ei.
I am starting to memorize the systems of gender, but exceptions fuck me over too much.
I should be able to have the equivalent of a few years of german if I really put in some effort over the next month or so. I do love being this good.
Heh... There are no "systems" of gender. There are two exceptions to _that_ rule though: -ung and -heit/keit are feminine.
"der Mann" pluralizes as "die Männer" except for _dative_ plural, which is "den Männern" (all dative plural forms end in "n" if they didnt before). As far as there being 9 forms, I think there are 5 noun groups, but that might make 9 rules, when you count the dative business.
I can type up my German reference book's rules if you're troubled, otherwise, I recommend "Essential German Grammar" by Stern and Bleiler as soon as you can pick it up.
Well, I mean that in general things ending with er and el are masculing, and words ending with ie and um are feminine, and there are a few for neuter too.
I have a german grammar book and dictionary, they keep me alive during the dull school hours.
I'm sorry I didn't get to respond to thsi sooner. This made my fucking night, and tonight I go to the amazon. BTW, want anything? If not I'll get you a buffet of what would otherwise be unnattainaible food.
The food either represents your preferred occupation and mode of living, which you view to be kept from you by an injust system chock full of evil beaurocrats bent ultimately on your unhappiness. Money is often symbolized by food.
That or you actually are a pure lesbian and I've been wrong all this time, and you are feeling constantly stuck with men. Vaginas are often metaphorically referred to as fruits (and whaddya know, not sweet fruits), donuts are an obvious analogy, and cakes are a classic symbol of repressed femininity.
You need sex or a job. Just like the rest of the human fucking race.
