Does anyone here know german?

Und doch gibt es hier, in den Ostprovinzen angenehme Orte wie Leipzig und Dresden, die beileibe viel wichtiger sind (in historischer Hinsicht) als Bonn!

I've always wanted to learn German, but I just can't find time out of my school syllabus! Damn school system!
I think i'd learn much more if i wasn't being educated.
lol Bubonic Plague, i wound up disregarding much of my assignments simply so i did have time to learn things; and they had the nerve to call me an underachiever.
I know the feeling...I've said this so many times.

In the Netherlands we don't have a choice, we have to learn dutch, english, german and french (in order of comprehension). Too bad that they only teach grammar -in stead of learning to speak- which is quite difficult in German: ein, einer, einem, eines,
I didn't have much fun learning this stuff :S

but I am a bit disgusted by the fact that only locations of the former BRD have been considered, and none from the east.

I hope you won't hold it against me...
I was 8, the wall hadn't come down yet, and my old man was working for the US Army. The Soviets didn't take too kindly to American Intelligence officers that side of the curtain.

To Monique: la grammaire francaise n'est pas difficile, c'est tout une question d'assimiler les éléments le plus naturels. Néanmoins, étudier seulement les regles est un gaspillage de temps, parce que on peut absorber l'essence (pas de voiture!) de la langue seulement par l'expérimentation de son âme.

And quite impossible in French:
I am in different forms: je suis, tu es, il est, nous sommes, vous etes, ils sont (present); j'etais, tu etais, il etait, nou etions, vous etiez, ils etaient (imparfait); je serai, tu seras, il sera, nous serons, vous serez, ils seront (futur)
