Since they have same questions on different language learning SE websites([resources for learning Russian][1]), I'd like to write one for German language since it's a great idea to have all kinds of resources in one place. This is a specifically created Community Wiki which gathers resources for learning German and it has been approved by the Community itself. It should be clear that **the resources are not written by one user or only by the mods, but *by whoever wants to contribute***. Just write in the appropriate answer/section. If you have concerns, questions, [post a meta question][2], so we don't clutter the comments, but you can link your meta question from the comments. Questions regarding such resources **are not allowed anymore**, except for very specific and on topic requests (ask on [Meta][2] if you're unsure about your question). Follow the instructions made in the question about how to post, what can be posted, etc. <br> ### Organization <br><br> - Answers have a type of resource **each**. - If possible, state whether the material is directed towards a **beginner**, **intermediate** or an **advanced** audience. - **Do not** include links that lead to illegal content or sites that host such content. If you see any, please **flag for moderator attention** and choose "other" so you can point us to the content. We'll delete it as soon as we see the flag. - Both free and commercial resources are allowed, but make sure to include a note if they are. Remember the [rules about self-promotion][3]. Include also if registration is required. - Include links to the sites only, *don't post images*, they would take too much space. - Add the resources in alphabetical order so they're easier to find. :) *Note: new rules could be added in the future.* <br> ### Alphabetical Index <br><br> - [Audio Resources][4]: Audio files where you hear a voice talking or reading. - [Books][5]: Books from German authors or translations. - [Dictionaries][6]: Stand-alone or dictionary files for you to use on your computer. - [Newspapers][7]: Famous or not services that provide news for Germany and the rest of the world... in German. - [Online courses][8]: Free or paid services online that teach you the language through lessons. - [Podcasts][9]: Audio files that feature people speaking about the language or giving tips/lessons to learners. - [Software][10]: This can be any software ranging from plugins for the browser over mobile apps up to standalone applications for the computer. - [Television][11]: TV channels, shows in German. - [Textbooks][12]: Grammar books that teach you the grammar of the language with theory and exercises. - [Video Resources][13]: Video resources which help learning German and are not TV stations - [Websites][14]: Sites that give help for learning German. They give material, tips, hints, and various help for self-learners or regular students.
