It must be getting late

Guten Morgen aus Deutschland, nimm ein Brötchen

Die Amis schlafen...
1 Meter = 10 Decimeter = 100 Zentimeter
1 Kilometer = 1.000 Meter
- 10 °C.
  
  1 Liter Wasser = 1 Kilogramm
  1000 Liter = 1 Kubikmeter
  
  Nene Kelvin ist besser (sofern es nicht um Wasser geht).
- I forgot that your heathens use "." Instead of "," in numbers. I was very confused
  
  Swiss system is best system: apostrophes for thousands, either dot or comma for decimals. Completely unambiguous for anyone even if you're seeing it for the first time: 12'345.67
  
  It's called a decimal point. No wonder you don't understand.

Full circle :D

Nein. Das ist zeit für Deutsch lernen. Dann du kannst Scheißposts in zwei Sprachen machen
- Hmm, let me try.
  No. This is not for German learning. Then you can't shit post in the Spray Machine.
  How close did I get?
  
  Pretty close, but you skipped some nouns and you have too many "not"s in your sentence. The correct translation is "no, that is the time for learning German. Then you can shitpost in two languages". Zeit is the word for time, and Sprachen means languages.
- Just to be completely correct it would have been: "Nein, dann ist Zeit um Deutsch zu lernen! So kann man Scheiß-Posts in zwei Sprachen verfassen." The english for is correctly translated with the preposition "um" and it is uncommon to use you as we have the pronoun "man" for such cases. But it is actual better German than you hear in my place most of the time.
- Na dann bring denen doch wenigstens bei, dass Nomen wie Zeit groß geschrieben werden.
- I only speak a very tiny bit of German so apologies if I get this wrong, but this reads like English forced into German.
  No. That is time for German learning. Then you can shitpost in two languages make.
  Oh wow I just realized that there's the weird make in the end so maybe it was proper German after all?
  
  Lol, you did good, but got tripped up by reading "Scheißposts" as a verb. It's capitalized, so it's a noun. The "make" at the end gets folded into the "kannst" - or "can" - so it's "Then you can make shitposts in two languages."
  
  I've only got my A2 in German so I might also make mistakes with this, but yeah, that seems like proper German to me.
  In German, the verb in a sentence fragment always goes in position 2. However, if a fragment contains two verbs (usually when you use the past perfect or when you use a modal verb, in my limited experience) then the second verb goes at the very end. So, technically, OP should have swapped "kannst" and "du", because kannst is a modal verb and thus needs to go in position 2, but the rest is good.
  I also feel like "Zeit für Deutsch lernen" might sound better if it was combined into a massive noun like Deutschlernzeit, but I might be stretching too far with that. The original version is perfectly understandable.

Same but I'm from Australia. Ich_iel is pretty much German Duolingo to me at this point.
- Be aware that part of ich_iel humour in no small part consits of comically literal translations of English expressions. That has nothing to do with proper German and as a learner you probably won't be able to spot the difference.
  Bad idea to try to learn German there.
- Another one making the mistake of learning German by ich_iel-memes.
- The German on ich_iel can be "creative"
- Oh boy, you're learning Zangendeutsch
- Yeah it is pretty good practice for puzzling out meaning

Gute Nacht
- Jetzt schon?

I've, legit, learned a decent amount of German just by having Google translate up on my second monitor browsing lemmy late at night.
- I was gonna make a Midnight Oil joke, then remembered they're all 'Strayan.
  
  ...it's okay; they do metric, too...

Schlaf gut.
- Natürlich, oder.

Its always the 2 seconds of "WTF is OP saying?". Oh. Non english. Nvm

(You do not in fact, go to bed.)
In a couple years you'll be able to read German fluently... Without knowing how to speak it.
- Ironically, it's one of the few languages that English speakers have an easier time advancing their lingual fluency through literacy, in my experience. (former ESL teacher, international hospitality liaison, etc.)
  
  That’s probably because early Germanic languages formed the base of the early English language, even before we “added” a ton of French and other shit through (actual and) cultural conquest.
  If you look through language roots, English splits from Germanic at some point close enough to make the rules logical going from English to German but probably not the other way around, idk.
- I started learning German from my dad's Jr. Highschool book from the 1960s but had no one around who spoke German. My pronunciation was... interesting (even trying to mimic what the guide was telling me in the front of the book). When I finally tried to speak to people, it was also funny to learn that several things were quite out-of-date (Feder vs Kuli I think was one).

yup that is also my signal for "you have exhausted all the English lemmy content from now on it is all Deutschland"

I'm in europe, but I've actually been learning german these past few months so i see German posts as free practice
- I read German memes to practice German.
  
  Wahrlich nicht kringelig

SPRICH
- DEUTSCH
  
  DU

Moin

It's really bedtime when it turns Indian.
- *Hindi
  
  I was gonna say Gujarati, but then learned it's a subset of Western Hindi. TIL! 😅
- I assume the time zone is right, but I'm not sure the userbase is there the way it is for the German-speakers. If there are actually a lot of Indians on Lemmy, I feel like most of them must be writing in English instead of Hindi or their other various native languages.

U can filter by language
- The Germans make some awesome memes though.
  
  The Germans make some efficient memes though.
  
  German ~~engineering~~ memeing.
- But then I'll never sleep
  
  Doch

Yeah, that's just the zeitgeist - closer and closer to midnight.

real

Muss ich schon sagen das es schoen ist das ich kann nachrichten und meinungen von viele lande bekommen weil es gemischt ist.

You can actually select what languages you want to see in settings. Which is a step up from reddit. Only weird thing is you ALSO have to select "undetermined" language besides English and whatever else.
- Is that option available in voyager? I don’t see it.
  
  Sorry don't know, I only see it in the settings of the default webUI

Muricans mentality: being offended by other languages existing
- .... it's a timezone joke. F*** off.
- Were we offended we'd block ich_iel. It's just a joke about how late it is.
- The irony is that this user is the one who’s offended and that several comments have mentioned learning and studying German.
  
  probably because they want to look cool in front of all their brothers.
- verpiß dich

Which feed? It sure as fuck isn’t lemmy
- Oh no it's definitely Lemmy. Probably depends where your home server is and who you're federated with. And where in the US you live (because of timezones)
  
  Hard to believe. There just isn’t enough activity on lemmy. My feed hardly changes throughout the day, and very little is German regardless of the time of day.
  But then again I browse “All” and nothing else.
- I see this all the time on mastodon
