Spelling
Reform
Recently, there has been a spelling
reform of the German language. The following are
a few points that have changed:
1. Write ss after a short vowel, and
ß after a long vowel or diphthong. Please
note that ß is not used in Switzerland or Liechtenstein
and a lot of people don't pay attention to this
rule anyway. Also, there is no capital letter
that corresponds to the lower case ß, so it must
be written as SS.
2. Words that are now capitalized: (auf)
Deutsch, Mittag, Abend, Morgen, Recht haben, Leid
tun.
3. The forms of Du (familiar you) are
no longer capitalized in letters.
4. A comma is not necessary when two
independent clauses are joined by und.

 When we are playing games, surfing on line or doing some other work we spend a lot of time on waiting. How can we make full use of the waiting time? To use this software to learn foreign language, I think, is one of the perfect ways. Run this software, and then there will be one dock window on your screen and it will show you foreign language characters, and their English meanings, and you can hear their pronunciation. Here you can improve your ability of learning foreign language unconsciously, easily. Learn To Speak German comes with a conversation kit, vocabulary builder, dictionary, and Reader Angel.
