I took German classes in college a few years ago, but I didn't take them as seriously as I should have. Occasionally, I encounter people in public who are speaking German, and I resist the impulse to talk to them in German, being that my German is poor. I got up to German 102 (that is, the second class)- but like I said, I just didn't apply myself. I can show you some of the basic German that I know. But essentially, I just want to say "hello" to people, when I hear them speaking German. However, I want to be able to properly explain that I only know a little tiny bit of German- that way, if they start speaking a lot of the language, I can explain how much of an idiot I am, and that I only speak a few words in their native tongue. LOL.
Okay, let me show you what I know:
"Guten Tag!" He he he. And stuff like "Na, Wie Geht's?"
How would I say, in German, "Sorry- I don't speak a lot of German- just a few words."
Also, if you can tutor me, that would be cool. Please let me know
