Native speaker offering help mit Grammatik :)

[YoungSpice94]

Hallo, Englisch ist meine Muttersprache. Ich kann dir helfen :)

Wir können auf Englisch schreiben :)

[bastianbalthazar]

Mein Englisch ist super. Können Sie statt mit meinem Deutsch helfen? ;-)

Ich habe Deutsch seit einem Jahr gelernt. Schöne Sprache, nicht wahr?

[YoungSpice94]

English is both mine and your native language, is it not? Ich bin nicht zungen fertig im Deutsch, und you have completed your tree before I have. Ich kann dir helfen, aber you know more than I do.

[bastianbalthazar]

Ach so. Verstehe! Ja, das ist richtig. Englisch ist auch meine Muttersprache. Du schreibst gut auf Deutsch. Ich wünsche dir viel Erfolg und viel Spaß auch!

[bastianbalthazar]

Wenn du Fragen hast, dann fragst mich bitte :-)

[katawalker]

frag, not fragst. ;)

Hi, how are you?
What does your name "HalbDeutschMann" mean?
LG :)

[YoungSpice94]

Half of my heritage is that of Deutschland. My Mother's grandparents were from Bremer/Bremerhaven although I was told that other members of the family were located elsewhere in Deutschland; such as a small farm in between Gorlitz and Dresden, and around the Hamburg area.

[Sissi-Lisa]

Ahh therefore "HalbDeutschMann" :)
Have you ever been to Germany and visit some german relatives? You wrote you live in NY...

[YoungSpice94]

No, unfortunately I have not. Yes, I do live in NY (an awful place to live), but I am getting cabin fever (phrase meaning I'm getting anxious to go somewhere different). It would be outstanding to enter in a study abroad program as I want to become a teacher/professor of the german language.

Then I have the issue with whether people with my mother's maiden name are related to me. Here in the USSA there ar a lot of people with smith as their last name, however not everyone with the name smith are related. Do you catch my drift?
