Gratifying German

A reader gave me for my writing in this blog, the previous overall score four plus, and this (The Four is the two of the little man!) Encouraged me to take enough of her satisfying targeted.

Even more good news is to report: I have the impression that various authors write increasingly linguistically better and more creative in various media.

This is a purely personal view.

Evidence for the thesis:

  • Subjunctive and genitive are increasingly used
  • Participle appear more frequently
  • Older idioms and proverbs return
  • Engleutsch is in decline
  • Game, even with older vocabulary, dared
  • The semicolon returns with power
  • Compound sentence are reinstated in their rights

Already talk of a German Renaissance writing culture, would probably exaggerated, but first seedlings appear to grow.
