Here's some French for those after it.

Il neigeait. On était vaincu par sa conquête.
Pour la première fois l'aigle baissait la tête.
Sombres jours ! l'empereur revenait lentement,
Laissant derrière lui brûler Moscou fumant.
Il neigeait. L'âpre hiver fondait en avalanche.
Après la plaine blanche une autre plaine blanche.
On ne connaissait plus les chefs ni le drapeau.
Hier la grande armée, et maintenant troupeau.
On ne distinguait plus les ailes ni le centre.
Il neigeait. Les blessés s'abritaient dans le ventre
Des chevaux morts ; au seuil des bivouacs désolés
On voyait des clairons à leur poste gelés,
Restés debout, en selle et muets, blancs de givre,
Collant leur bouche en pierre aux trompettes de cuivre.
Boulets, mitraille, obus, mêlés aux flocons blancs,
Pleuvaient ; les grenadiers, surpris d'être tremblants,
Marchaient pensifs, la glace à leur moustache grise.
Il neigeait, il neigeait toujours ! La froide bise
Sifflait ; sur le verglas, dans des lieux inconnus,
On n'avait pas de pain et l'on allait pieds nus.
Ce n'étaient plus des cœurs vivants, des gens de guerre :
C'était un rêve errant dans la brume, un mystère,
Une procession d'ombres sous le ciel noir.

O, schaurig ists, übers Moor zu gehn,
Wenn es wimmelt vom Heiderauche,
Sich wie Phantome die Dünste drehn
Und die Ranke häkelt am Strauche,
Unter jedem Tritte ein Quellchen springt,
Wenn aus der Spalte es zischt und singt -
O, schaurig ists, übers Moor zu gehn,
Wenn das Röhricht knistert im Hauche!

Pretty damn good. There's some mistakes showered in there of course, but they're secluded only to some specific sounds, so it's nothing too bad. You can't have learned it this well at school though?
Also you sound very young.

D'où es-tu?

>>72371854
"pd", as p in French is pronounced "pé", and d pronounced "dé", therefore orally reads out "pédé, which is an abbreviation for pédéraste. Which means "flaming faggot".

Anyways sorry for thinking the worst from you bud.

One of the most beautiful paragraphes in French litterature especially hand-picked for my American buddy.

>>72371874
Pretty good actually. The only thing I noticed is that the "ch" in "Heiderauche" and in "Hauche" sound like a "r". The one in "Strauche" was correct.

Oops:

> Longtemps, je me suis couché de bonne heure. Parfois, à peine ma bougie éteinte, mes yeux se fermaient si vite que je n’avais pas le temps de me dire : « Je m’endors. » Et, une demi-heure après, la pensée qu’il était temps de chercher le sommeil m’éveillait ; je voulais poser le volume que je croyais avoir encore dans les mains et souffler ma lumière ; je n’avais pas cessé en dormant de faire des réflexions sur ce que je venais de lire, mais ces réflexions avaient pris un tour un peu particulier ; il me semblait que j’étais moi-même ce dont parlait l’ouvrage : une église, un quatuor, la rivalité de François Ier et de Charles Quint. Cette croyance survivait pendant quelques secondes à mon réveil ; elle ne choquait pas ma raison mais pesait comme des écailles sur mes yeux et les empêchait de se rendre compte que le bougeoir n’était plus allumé. Puis elle commençait à me devenir inintelligible, comme après la métempsycose les pensées d’une existence antérieure ; le sujet du livre se détachait de moi, j’étais libre de m’y appliquer ou non ; aussitôt je recouvrais la vue et j’étais bien étonné de trouver autour de moi une obscurité, douce et reposante pour mes yeux, mais peut-être plus encore pour mon esprit, à qui elle apparaissait comme une chose sans cause, incompréhensible, comme une chose vraiment obscure. Je me demandais quelle heure il pouvait être ; j’entendais le sifflement des trains qui, plus ou moins éloigné, comme le chant d’un oiseau dans une forêt, relevant les distances, me décrivait l’étendue de la campagne déserte où le voyageur se hâte vers la station prochaine ; et le petit chemin qu’il suit va être gravé dans son souvenir par l’excitation qu’il doit à des lieux nouveaux, à des actes inaccoutumés, à la causerie récente et aux adieux sous la lampe étrangère qui le suivent encore dans le silence de la nuit, à la douceur prochaine du retour1

Eh, you can be proud of yourself. I'd heard that adjusting on French sonorities was a bit outside of Germanic's languages grasp but you've exceeded that. Hell even German girls on Erasmus exchange here who have been practicing French for their entire lives haven't quite reached the level you have.
Clap clap. Also clap clap for Norwegian language education. I wish we hadn't wasted so much of your time on a silly and useless language like ours though.

Here is what I read, it is from song:

Eg har pint meg, provd og prove stadig
å bli mer sånn som du vil
men eg tryne titt og rakne radig
gode miner blir te særdeles slett spill
eg blir simpelthen sjuk av å shoppa
klesbutikkar gjor meg gal
men du fryde deg og lar deg'kje stoppa
det e nok du som e normal

Eg e bare ein mann
som gjor så godt han kan
men eg får det'kje te
det e bare sånn det e
eg e bare ein mann
bare ein mann

>>72372673
Thanks. Most people have the choice between Spanish, German or French. But at my tiny school we only had French. Every language that isn't English is pretty useless, so French is as good a language as any to learn after English.

>>72372697
Here is what I read. It is from the song "Bare ein mann" by Bjorn Eidsvåg.

Kvalitetstid med tusener av temaer
folelsar ska dissekeras med ord
logistikk og utfylling av skjemaer
- gjor me'kje detta i fjor?
det krible i kroppen og svetten renne
det e ein rein refleks
det versta e at ”blodet brenne”
og eg tenke på sex?

Eg e bare ein mann
som gjor så godt han kan
men eg får det'kje te
det e bare sånn det e
eg e bare ein mann
bare ein mann

Read this:

Den evige norbaggen aer en loemsk typ,
gniden och vansinnig
med en stor, krokig naesa och doeda oegon
han lustar efter svenskens kronor och land

HELL SEGER

>>72372655
Understandable, but definitely with an accent. You seem to have problems with the soft "ch" as in "ich", but I think you know that. "st" in "Dünste", "ist" and "knistert" is not pronounced "scht", "zischt" is "tsischt", you pronounced it as a voiced s.
The first "e" in "gehen" needs to be long, the "i" in "Tritte" is short. All in all, the vowels are mostly close to correct, but slightly off. I think you're getting there.

Are you the set up to a joke?
>A Pakistan Englishman goes into a voc thread...

>>72373432
The long "e" is more closed. You pronounce "gehen" like "gähen". We actually prounounce "h" :^)
The "i" in "Tritte" needs to be short and more open. "knistert" is not pronounced "knischtert". Your "au" doesn't really include the "u", for example, you pronounce "Strauche" more like "Strache".
You can understand it, but there's definitely an accent.

>German is so fucking difficult
It's kind of amusing how our languages have very similar sets of sounds but still sound very different overall. To be fair, I deliberately picked a more difficult text (it contains many things that foreigners struggle with, especially "ö", "ü", both versions of "ch").

>>72374559
was that supposed to be an insult?

>>72371312
This is from older literature, yes?

My god german is so difficult

>>72375523
Scary.

>>72375437
It is, yes. I like that poem because it uses the German language pretty well.
>wimmelt
No dark "l" in German. Pronounce the "l" the same way that you would in "like" or "lift".
>sich
The "ch" is a tad too close to "sh". But that's a common mistake and no great problem.
>Dünste
Similar case, the "ü" is too close to "u".
>Strauche
Is pronounced "Schtrauche". I'm not quite sure whether the "a" is correct, it is wandering a bit towards [æ].
>Tritte
Native English speakers really struggle with "e" at the end of words. You put too much stress on it, it really needs to be the most neutral sound you could possibly make.
>Quellchen
You pronounce the "Qu" as "Kw" (using English spelling), it should be "Kv". The sound that you write as "w" does not exist in German.
>zischt
Pronounced tsischt
>Röhricht
You pronounced it like "Röchicht", needs to be more voice to become an "r".

Intelligible, but with an accent.

>>72374624
http://vocaroo.com/i/s1PFv9GwLR56 :^)

>>72375229
Cheers for the feedback, yeah except for the ch hard and soft we have the same sounds but the rythm is completely different

>>72376107
i suck at reading poetry and stuff. could post something in normal hochdeutsch?

>>72375905
"ü" is the exact same thing as French "u".
>Strauche
Pronounced "Schtrauche"
>springt, Spalte
same thing, schpringt and Schpalte
>übers
We actually pronounce even those letters at the end of words :^)
>Quellchen
"qu" = "kw", not "k"
>zischt
tsischt

By the kind of mistakes you made, I would guess you did not learn German for a longer time? (They're pretty obvious mistakes, hence my guess). In that case it's surprisingly good. Still heavily accented, but that should probably be no surprise.

>>72376475
Does S in german always sound like "sh" ?
Tb h I never learned german.

>>72370153
http://vocaroo.com/i/s0YeZe2opKK2

>>72376549
only if it's in front of a T or P like that

>>72376549
In "st" and "sp" when in the beginning of syllables, it's "sch", otherwise not.
Southwestern dialects (Swabian, Swiss German, Alsatian :^) ) always pronounce "st" and "sp" as "scht" and "schp".

>>72376231
Grenzkontrollen und Grenzschutz waren stets möglich. Merkel hat bewusst gelogen und fabuliert, als sie behauptete, man könne Deutschlands Grenzen nicht schützen. Es ist dies ein Signal, dass Merkel im Notfall lügt (frei nach Juncker), und das nachweisbar und mehrfach ganz bewusst und zielstrebig, wenn es darum geht, die eigene Haut zu wahren.

>>72377150
The freely spoken part was perfect, the read-out part almost. The "e" in "stets" and the first "a" in "nachweisbar" need to be long, and there is no dark "l" in German ("Merkel", "Notfall"). The rest was pretty good. Did you learn German for a longer time?

Many of the mistakes you made were already here in this thread.
>zu, zischt
tsu, tsischt
"l" is always like in "like" or "lift", German has no dark "l".
>sich
The "ch" is a bit too close to "sch".
>häkelt
You said "hakelt".
>Quellchen
In English spelling "qu" = "kv". You pronounced "kw", the sound that is written in English as "w" does not exist in German.
>springt
schpringt. Also, you used the English "r".
>Spalte
Schpalte
>über
The "er" needs to be (only a bit) closer to "a".

>>72378024
>könne
You said "künne"
>nicht
You said "nickt". You generally pronounce "ch" as "k"
>schützen
The "ü" is short
>ist
Again, "ist", not "ischt" (assuming you're the same guy as above)
>Notfall
The "a" needs to be short
>zielstrebig
This time, it's zielschtrebig
>wahren
You said "fahren"

>>72376713

>>72379561
Pretty good. "Es ist dies ein Signal", "zielstrebig" and "eigene Haut" were a bit sloppy, otherwise you sound like a Frenchman who has been living in Germany for a while. There is a slight accent, but not the kind that is exhausting to listen to.
