These are the books in the OP:First Book in Germanhttps://archive.org/details/firstbookingerma00chilElementary Frenchhttps://archive.org/details/elementaryfrench00aldrrichIt's probably best to combine those with these:A German Primer, George Fisk Comforthttps://babel.hathitrust.org/cgi/pt?id=hvd.32044102864030&seq=11Allerlei, Peter Hagboldthttps://archive.org/details/allerlei0000unsehttps://archive.org/details/allerlei0000peteThese two are the same book but the former contains a word list that references the page, while the latter contains a vocabulary with more info but no references to pages.A Child's Illustrated First Book in French, Jean Keetelshttps://archive.org/details/childsillustrate00keet/page/20/mode/1upSept-d'un-Coup, Otto Bondhttps://archive.org/details/septduncoup00duma
>>543583465>A German Primer, George Fisk ComfortIt's also on google books:https://books.google.com/books?id=bVYBAAAAYAAJIt's also on archive.org but that scan is bad.But I'm wasting my breath. Nothing but fucking Frito Pendejos on here.
People should be able to read this from day one with the help of the footnotes and the vocabulary.Anyway I hope you all rot in hell losers.

>>543582348based swede who knows how to read and write. Have to tackle the trivium soon.
>>543583956German should really be the first foreign language native English speakers learn, it's practically the same language once you learn the sentence structures and some basic vocab. I'm not a fan of French, but it's historically more "aristocratic" to be a Francophone Francophile. Spanish, I can't get my tongue around the silly accent, but Mexican spanish is pretty nice. Portuguese is perhaps the most natural romance language for English speakers to learn. Italian is easy to learn theoretically, but the inflection and rhythm is hard to get right. Swedish and Norwegian I just can't get the pronunciation right at all, I FEEL like I'm pronouncing it accurately enough but natives will just turn their heads like "huh?". I personally like Polish, it's like a soft mix between French and Russian, once you get past the szczrzężśą. Ukrainian and Russian I haven't really had a proper go at yet on account of the alphabet. Currently attempting Greek, still getting my head around the alphabet, but I don't find the pronunciation too hard. Haven't had a go at any Asian languages, but I'm told the easiest one to start with is Korean.
>>543585060Where did they go? Endchan? I miss Frenschan, that had a lot of potential.
>>543581463>SigToo bad sig (Sauer) is run by a demon kike.
>>543585435>it's practically the same language once you learn the sentence structures and some basic vocabist aber nicht, there's good reasons why german is considered iirc a tier 3 language for native english speakers while some romance languages like french or even italian tier 2
>>543581463It has been seven years since last I saw the baby swallow... nestled there in its mothers arms, with the perfidious farmers close at hand. That was the day I lost consciousness, and entered a coma for nine weeks. When I awoke, they were surrounding me: farmers, towering menacingly above me, with bodies of sparrows strung ornamentally like some obscene Christmas. I glanced at the window. Maybe it WAS Christmas.>The biggest one stepped forward and held up a tiny, limp body.>>WHAT D'YA THINK OF YOUR LITTLE FRIEND NOW?>I glanced up, expecting to see baby swallow. But as I looked more carefully, I realized this poor hapless victim lacked the signature white tail-feather of Baby Swallow. Not only that, but the chip in Baby Swallow's beak that we'd made accidentally in a game of birdball was conspicuously absent.>If they were showing me a fake... maybe the real Baby Swallow was still out there somewhere.>Another grunt stepped forward:>>AND 'ERE'S EES MUM, TOO!>He threw a mangled scrap of decayed flesh and feathers into my lap. There could be no mistaking it. This WAS Baby Swallow's mother. I vomited instantly on one of the toadies, which prompted a violent reaction. He clubbed me over the head, and I lost consciousness again.>When I awoke, I was alone. My legs shattered in several places. My only source of food has been a distasteful mushroom that grows on the forest floor. At night, I hear the distant howling of wolves. I have crawled for... I don't know how long, now. All I know is that I must find Baby Swallow and help him to avenge the death of his mother.
>>543585569I respectfully disagree, people claim this but it's unsubstantiated. They point to the grammar, but it's really not that hard. It's much stricter than English which has greater fluidity of structure, so I imagine is harder to learn ESL. The pronunciation is easy too, just mimic an angry cat performing an interrogation.
>>543585843it's not the grammar even it's the lexicon as well, being both "Germanic" doesn't help that much since German i.e high German dialects not only underwent a lot of phonetic changes making a lot of cognates not immediate but retained its Germanic roots to a much higher degree than English beyond immediate day to day words
>>543585843I would say it depends on the English speaker. An English speaker comfortable with Early Modern English would have less trouble than an "English" speaker fluent in ebonics. Consider this comparison:>English: Where are you from?>German:Woher kommst du?>Early Modern English:Whither comest thou?>Ebonics "English":Ayo wher u was bone?Once you throw "Spanglish" into the mix you can easily see why some Romance languages are tier 2 while German, which more closely resembles true English, ranks 3; but that simply wouldn't be the case for a well-read English speaker.
