German has horrible grammar
No, really, it does. I hate German grammar. It uses both case and word order to specify subjects and oblects, which is horribly redundant and annoying. It uses the present tense to specify future actions sometime. It's very, very tiring. Not at all easy like English, where word order does everything, or Latin, where it's all in the cases. No, no, German has to be different. Now, this means there's very little you have to figure out from context, but it also means there's lots of stupid little rules to follow all the time.
Maybe when I can speak German a little better I'll appreciate it more. Right now, I don't like it so much. It's an order of magnitude harder to learn than French, Spanish, or Italian. Oh well, it's a challenge. And I like those.
