"Master the German Adjective Endings in under 3 Minutes" !!
It sound unlikely, but you never know ...
But what do you think, dear readers ?
Well...all that time-wasting handwriting is a pain.
It seems to me it creates as many questions as answers.
Plurals ... different cases ..... -er endings etc
All those "other" articles he only mentions in passing ...
To be nice for a moment, he has a good go at hitting the easier bits.
But it will leave most viewers going "er ..what ... hold on .... what about ... ?"
Ask yourself this...
If you were on a desert island and only had a German novel as your only source (it would have a vocabulary at the back), just how long would it take you to unravel the whole "adjective agreement" thing ?
A hell of a long time I reckon.
Not that it would matter if you were alone ... you could make as many mistakes as you wanted.That's the advantage of only wanting to READ German .... you don't really need to know about any of that. Not really.
And what about those people from outer space .... imagine what they would think of it all !! They'd probably turn back and bog off home.
The books are very keen to tell you how very logical it all is .... but it's not really. Many of the endings are arbitrary .... as is all that " weak/strong /"mixed" rigmarole. And all the many and varied ways of saying "the" and "a" etc before you even get to adjective agreements..
And to operate the whole system correctly, you've got to know the gender of each and every noun. Ouch !!
The French and Spanish must think the whole thing is barmy !!
And the English .... double barmy !!
And the Welsh.... they don't have any of it. No adjectival agreement at all. And they don't even have a word for "a".... so there.
If you've come across any really good videos that do the job a lot better, you could let me know, and I could put them on here. I'm going to have a bit of a trawl through them as well....
