When to use Perfekt and Präteritum? Im einfachen Präteritum wird - umgangssprachlich! - der Verlauf betont. "Ich lag in der Sonne" bezieht sich auch einen Zeitraum. Nur, wenn ein ", als folgendes passierte: …" hinzukommt, reduziert sich die Bedeutung wieder auf einen Zeitpunkt. Deshalb ist "ich kaufte einen Computer" zwar grammatikalisch korrekt, die Semantik aber stimmt nicht. |

What are informal ways to say “good bye”? "Guten Tag" an older form of saying goodbye. Literally, you wish the other one a good day - which can be an both opening or closing salutation. It's common as an opening salutation today, but in old movies and TV shows (or books) you can still witness the use as a closing one. |

What is the origin of the rules about the capitalization of the first letter of each noun? Ist Deutsch tatsächlich die einzie Sprache, in der es üblich ist, Substantive großzuschreiben? |

How can I learn noun genders better? @Pekka - It is "Das Taij Mahal". Anyway - there is no use devising rules out of suffixes or prefixes, it just dosn't work out. |

How can I learn noun genders better? @Markus "the plural of german nouns are always female" - No, the plural article is always "die" - that does not mean it is female. It just means it's plural. |

How can a native English speaker know when it is appropriate to use the polite (Sie) or the familiar (Du)? @balpha: I've been addressed with "du" in IKEAs. I guess it depends. It may also well be that the company policy didn't stick too well and people are just switching back to default behavior given some time. |

Selbständig vs. selbstständig When I speak it, it becomes "selb-schtändig" - without a sharp st at all. Pronunciation leans towards the way of least resistance. ;) |
