    Trust me, pretty much everything about German is easier than English (I’m a native English speaker who learned German). The only difficult thing is learning all the verb cases.

      Not the genus of nouns? It makes so little sense I couldn’t explain it to anyone.

      Edit: That’s why we argue whether it is der, die or das Nutella. When of course it is obviously die Nutella.
