Could someone proof read my German paragraph?
Lyla Lovett asked:
Don’t bother telling me where accent marks go. I’ve got that under control, I’m just too lazy to type them in here lol. I’m looking for corrections on spelling, word order, and how to best get across my idea.
Deutsche trinken wasser. Amerikonische trinken Cola. Deutsche Rad fahren. Amerikonische fahren. Deutsche sehr gesund leben. Es ist schade, dass Amerikonische halten uns fit nicht. Wir sollen mehr fur die Gesunheit tun.
Its supposed to read: Germans drink water. Americans drink soda. Germans ride bikes. Americans drive. Germans do a lot for their health. It is too bad that Americans don’t keep fit. We should do more for our health!
I’m only in my second year of German, but the teacher doesn’t go very in depth with what we do. She keeps everything very simple, and if we try to play it up a bit she tells us to stop making it so complicated.
Sedora you don’t need to be so critical. I realize that Germans drink soda and drive cars as well. It was obviously exaggerated to get my point across that in general they are healthier than we are. Not that I care in the slightest. I picked the easiest possible things to say to make this assignment so much easier on myself so I can move on to other, more important homework.
