Figured out a Deutsch word from context clues/ etymology alone. Feeling very fly 😎

My toxic trait is that I refuse to save anyone’s number until absolutely necessary (using only text context clues to tell who it is) and then I blame myself for texting the wrong person 🙃

Will try my best— thank you for the encouragement 😭 (I honestly didn’t find French nearly as hard as Deutsch, but maybe that was because I grew up learning it in school??)

It is with great humility that I admit I had gravely underestimated how hard learning German would be… I am now a reformed woman 😔
