Why learn German?

Learning German enhances career prospects, especially in engineering, finance, and academia, and deepens appreciation for Western philosophy and literature. An English speaker typically needs about 1,000-2,000 vocabulary words for basic fluency. While it may take 600-750 hours of study to reach general proficiency, basic grammar—including cases (nominative, accusative, dative, genitive), gender (der, die, das), and verb conjugations—can be grasped in a few months. German's precise but intricate grammar provides both a challenge and a tool for clear communication. Proficiency in German significantly aids in understanding cultural nuances and opens doors for travel and business.
