Hi Carolin. Can I please try chapter 16? I am not a native speaker of German but have studied German at school and university. You can always tell me if it is not up to standard!

Hello - this is only a short excerpt - maybe it is too challenging for me? Please give me feedback, Caroline.
Perhaps I should try easier German poems or passages...
Thank you
Dini

dini, im so sorry, this project dropped off my radar for a couple of days (as the things in this forum tend to do, to my shame).

i listened to your fragment and found it really good. i hear you have a real talent for dramatic dialogues :thumbs: (ill go download some of your english stuff to listen to). your german is understandable, and i would be glad if you read that section. however, just so you know, we also have other german language projects going with shorter sections and possibly easier language. im just saying because i myself always dread latin and french fragments in my recordings, over which i struggle and agonize endlessly and just waste a ton of time in editing. should you have the same, i would recommend another section, just to make sure you dont end up hating the book, the project, and the entire language :)

so if you would like to record that chapter, go ahead, but if you do decide for another project, thats fine as well :)

Thank you so much for your encouraging answer. I will decline this one and look for easier German passages, Carolin! Please remove my name in the magic window.
Any suggestions? I have a talent for pronouncing words in quite a few languages quite well (musical background) German, Dutch, Spanish, French as examples...

we have several other german language projects open with shorter sections, which might be an option. otherwise, there are the multilingual collections to which you can add whichever public domain text you like.

what would also be cool is recording translations of german texts into english - you would get all the names of persons and places right :D

Carolin, ich will mich ja nicht beschweren, aber du hast mich im MW umgetauft... :mrgreen:
Langsam macht sich der Clean-Up Trubel wohl bemerkbat :wink:
