Why German?

You can easily get along with the German language! No matter how unbelievable it sounds at first! Let me prove this to you right now!


Read through the following few statements and you will already look at the German language from a different perspective!

1) German is a highly logical language! - Need more than that? Many people say that it is impossible to learn the definite articles, especially since there are three of them. Unfortunately, I have to say that this is NOT TRUE, because there are rules for everything in German, and if you apply them, you will already know the exact grammatical gender of 90% of nouns. It's about as if you were doing LEGO, you pile the building blocks on top of each other and suddenly a big MIRACLE opens up before your eyes.

2) GERMAN IS THE WORLD LANGUAGE !!! - In Europe, German is spoken in a total of 7 countries! 1 language 7 countries! Do you understand?! Germans almost love it when a foreigner speaks to them in their own mother tongue, they really appreciate language skills, especially if it is their own language!

3) You will be the BEST candidate at the job interview! Why? - Who else can speak German? You! Everyone only worships English, and German is just the second one in the queue after English. Now it is your time to contribute to the revival of the German language! Mercedes, BMW, Audi or Volkswagen? Do you want to work in one of these workplaces? Well, it's good if you speak German as well as English, you can already expect a salary of hundreds of thousands!

4) You get extra points for the language exam at admission! - Even though you won't need it from 2024 - you would think as a layman - however, in the admissions procedure you can still get some extra points for it.

5) Besides English literature, German literature is / has the second most powerful knowledge bank in the world, in which you can deepen your knowledge or research as you wish! Remember, knowledge, especially language skills, is ETERNAL VALUE!

6) You can become a master of Germanic languages if you have already acquired the language! - Why? If you already communicate confidently in German, you will be able to learn the other Germanic languages, such as English (yes, English is also a Germanic language!), Dutch, Danish or Swedish, they will be so easy to learn! - You can learn one of these languages in months with sufficient diligence and foreign language skills! Isn't it wonderful?

7) German is a funny language! Why is that? - Have you ever seen German compound words? I bet that if you also answer "Oh, of course, I studied German at school; no question -  I've seen some before", then you definitely don't know what this kilometer long word means, which may seem like complete gibberish to many : "Rindfleischüberwachungsaufgabenübertragungsgesetz". This is the WTF category!

8) This language is not as difficult as many claim! If you still think it's difficult, then you've been taught the language poorly so far.
