I went to Germany 5 months ago and loved it! I want to travel around Germany’s cities one year, so if im going to spend a lot of time there, I need to learn some of their language?!
So far I have downloaded the apps on my phone and doing the basics! Lets see how long this takes! 1 day ago

Not the biggest goal in my life. It’s actually kinda silly why I decided to learn german. Other people who wanted it too, plus some Ramstein songs, plus some guy saying that women speaking german was something sexy, lol.
Today I keep this goal for stubbornness, so I will be happy enough even if I only learn the basics.
Like french, I plan to learn german as soon as I have spare time and as soon as I am fluent enough in japanese. 3 days ago

My family has a German side that I don’t know too much about. On of the places I would like to travel to is Germany and find out more about my family. To do that I want to learn some basic German so I feel more comfortable. 1 week ago

completed this goal
How I did it: Took classes starting freshman year in HS and 5 years later... I can understand it pretty well but I'm scared to speak it. I went to Germany and people usually just talked to me in English. I sort of hit a wall after the 3rd year. Read how I did it… 2 weeks ago

Added this goal quite a few months back but haven’t done anything to progress on it. Sad! Need to set some plans 3 weeks ago

until I leave for Germany!
And I don’t speak a lick of German. I went to my community ed class twice before I quit. The class was uninspiring and my heart wasn’t in it. But now that this trip is becoming more and more real, I know I need to step it up. I want to, at the very least, learn a handful of phrases that I can use to navigate the airport and politely order at a restaurant.
Can I commit to 20 minutes of studying a day for the next month? It’s certainly worth a shot. I have a great textbook with an audio CD, and I’ve also found a podcast or two that might be helpful. 3 weeks ago
