Hello! I'm learning German. It is Difficult.

That was fairly difficult, actually. I usually type my German phrases, and then copy them into a translator to see if I'm getting my sentences across correctly. Usually my writing needs tweaking (the word order in German is different than ours). But I'm listening to lessons in the morning, and that's helpful.
But... wow, talk about needing humility to learn a language. I sound like I'm speaking the German form of 'Engrish.'
