Android app for German Learning

Do note * - it is means that I use apps only with apk/premium unlocker, bc for one reason or another, free version of the app is not usable/not so great. And yes, I have duolingo as well - but we all had it at some point, so heh.

LingoDeer*:

great for picking up vocab;

better prononciation than in Duolingo;

though it is quite better for asian languages.

Chatterbug:

German videos;

German "shorts" like Youtubes/TikTok one;

Learngerman DW:

Basically cheating, bc we all love DW here, and if you don't - check it out, it is really great;

Easy German:

Learn german by reading newspaper articles!

Seedlang*:

Similar to an old duolingo with its tree, but quite lacking w/o premium.

LingQ*:

Read, listen, add your own sites/apps/videos for it to create a captions in German!

Create flashcards.

Readle:

Great app with a lot of short stories to test your reading skills;

little test at the end of each text to check if you understand what you have read;

Voice overs for every text!

Flashcards:

Better than Anki for me, since it is a lot easier to set up;

Avaliable voice overs for both sides of a flashcard.

Beelinguapp:

App for reading!

Have a split screen and read 2 text (in your native & in German) at the same time;

Create flashcards~

DO NOT GET A RAPID COIVD TEST UNLESS YOU HAVE SYMPTOMS.

Hi I am a microbiologist and I have to use one of these rapid antigen tests in my lab because of some Dumb Requirements by Sports People who still want to have sports even though there is a Pandemic on.

THEY DON'T WORK IF YOU ARE ASYMPTOMATIC. Like, we had people get tested with the antigen test and come back positive with a PCR a day later.

DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY ON RAPID TESTS. They are not accurate and give you a false sense of security (I have done near-daily testing for two weeks and they always come back negative).

If you have any COVID symptoms, the company claims they are effective. They even say themselves that monitoring of asymptomatic people is not going to be effective. But if you have symptoms you should be getting a PCR test anyway.

Anyway, for emphasis:

DO NOT GET A RAPID COIVD TEST UNLESS YOU HAVE SYMPTOMS.

DO NOT GET A RAPID COIVD TEST UNLESS YOU HAVE SYMPTOMS.

애국가 (Korean National Anthem)

1 : 동해 물과 백두산이 마르고 닳도록 하느님이 보우하사 우리나라 만세  Until that day when the waters of the East Sea run dry and Mt. Baekdu is worn away, God protect and preserve our nation.

2 : 남산 위에 저 소나무 철갑을 두른 듯 바람서리 불변함은 우리 기상일세  As the pine atop namsan mountain stands firm, unchanged through wind and frost, as if wrapped in armour, so shall our resilient spirit.

3 : 가을 하늘 공활한데 높고 구름 없이 밝은 달은 우리 가슴 일편단심일세  The Autumn sky is void and vast, high and cloudless; the bright moon is whole-hearted devotion.

4 : 이 기상과 이 맘으로 충성을 다하여 괴로우나 즐거우나 나라 사랑하세  With this spirit and this mind, give all loyalty, in suffering or in joy, to the love of country.

Chorus : 무궁화 삼천리 화려 강산 대한 사람 대한으로 길이 보전하세 Three thousand Li of splendid rivers and mountains, filled with Roses of Sharon; Great Korean people, stay true to the Great Korean way!
