I am not from Germany, but ich spreche ein bißchen Deutsch. :-)
I think German is more explicit than English (e.g. I search meaning of some English word and very often find > 30 meaning, where some of them have antagonistic meaning). Very difficult must be German for simultaneous translation (e.g.:verb is at the end of the side sentence, so the translator may need a big stack in his brain :-) )

A joke, which Germans probably do not understand:
Ich stehe nicht ver, ich bin Länder aus. ;-)
Means that: Ich verstehe nicht, ich bin Ausländer. :D
Lol, now I'm a little bit confused.


Sorry for my bad English. I'm German.

This is a typical grammar mistake, which is often done by foreigners learning German, but it is never done by native Germans.

I picked Spanish as a language just because, but if I could I would take all that are offered (in my case Spanish, German, and French). I love languages, and actually find them really easy. I wish I could speak German. Actually, I wish there were really good internet tutorials for foreign languages.
