“Win-ter“
Hallo ihr lieben,
day 23 of the Advent Calendar, pretty much the grand finale.
And today, we’ll put the win back in winter.
And I know what you’re thinking now. You’re like “Sure, Emanuel… just like a few days ago when you said that we can win a Play Station … SOMEWHERE.”
But no… this time I am serious. You can really win something here – a book called
Intuitive Vocabulary
Sounds good, right?
Intuitive Vocabulary, by Azzan Yadin-Israel, is basically a collection of all kinds of word relations between German and English. And there are more than we think.
And it’s not a new book and I’ve actually written a review about it back in 2013 or so. But then I kind of forgot about it until recently one of you mentioned it in the comments and I was a like “Wait, that’s a REALLY great learning tool, especially for those who dig etymology.”
Since back then, the author has actually made a second edition with a few changes to the structure and the layout.
Still, it’s not perfect in terms of usability and layout. Like… in the paperback version without a search function it’s not easy to quickly look up a specific word.
But the content as a whole is an absolute goldmine.
Like… there are sooooooo many cool relations between German and English and it can definitely help you grow your vocabulary.
If you want more details about you, you can check out my review here:
Intuitive Vocabulary – My (old) review
(please do NOT comment there to win!!!)
And if you want to have a look into the second edition, here’s the Amazon link (links to Amazon.com, not .de) :
Intuitive Vocabulary on Amazon
And if you’re now like:
“Hmmm… this sounds awesome. Might be really helpful”
then perfect because you can win it!
I’m giving away 3 copies of “Intuitive vocabulary”
(hard copy or e-book… your choice)
Here’s what you have to do:
Leave a comment telling the person who will comment
after you why their year 2021 will be amazing.
You can do it in German or English or Denglish, whatever you feel like.
And I’ll randomly pick three winners later on, after a few days. So don’t worry if you’re late. As long as I haven’t said here that it’s closed, you still have a chance :).
So yeah… really looking forward to your wish-chain.
Have a great day and I’ll see you tomorrow :)

Your 2021 will be awesome! That problem you’re having (you know, the one with the rash;-)), well, the cream will finally fix it! You’ll find out who stole your elastic band ball – and they’ll return it! Oh, and everyone who speaks to you, whether in English, German or some other language, will make a lot more sense than I have!
Enjoy 2021!
2021 brings you love and joy to take the place of frustration and grief. This year is for recovery. May it bring you peace and love and serenity. I wish you a wonderful new year.
Liebe Person, die nach mir kommentiert: Dein Jahr 2021 wird großartig, weil du endlich dein Deutsch mit Emanuels Seite verbessern wirst! Viel Vergnügen!
Das Jahr 2021 wird Ihr Jahr sein, da Sie Extremsportarten wie Tauchen, Surfen, Skifahren, Gleitschirmfliegen, Fallschirmspringen und vieles mehr betreiben werden.Frohes neues Jahr !
An amazing year will be 2021 for you because, no matter where you live, the Great Spirit will be watching you.
Dear person who comes after me. Your 2021 will be amazing because you know why? Because it has you in it. It has you and your kindness and your brilliant brain that will be leaning SO MUCH MORE. And you will be so beautiful to someone else’s 2021. You are a blessing upon the world, even and especially if you don’t feel like it.
Dear person who comments after me,
May 202 find you happily pursuing the things that bring the most meaning to your life, becoming more and more fulfilled and gratified to be alive. As you sink yourself deeper and deeper into living fully, may you experience joy, compassion, and the pleasure of a most excellent dessert. Sending love…
Oops! I meant 2021! Haha, a good laugh to start off the new year.

Your 2021 will be amazing because Emanuel is going to bake you a super-delicious cake! :)
Uhm… I hate baking!! Can I cook something instead?
You can buy it from the bakery instead. :)
Liebe Person, die nach mir kommentiert,
2021 will be a great year for you and your family!
All your plans and dreams will come true! If you want, you will be able to travel and speak German with real people, especially with Emanuel in Berlin!
Bleibt gesund und optimistisch!
Liebe Grüße aus Brasilien.
Hi, your 2021 will be amazing because you’ll be able to get out of the house and speak German to real, live humans. Because there’s no better way to accelerate your language learning than real human interaction :)
Dankeschön!!
2021 werde zuerst ein bisschen hart und langweilig … Zu viel Arbeit und nicht genug Sonne. Aber dann, april, mai, denn ganzen Sommer… Wow. Du werdest super froh das du so fleissig war weil die warme Monaten werden traumhaft, schoen, und voll mit Spass, Abenteuer und Liebe.
Thank you “team effort” for helping me out with the membership

Your 2021 will ve awesome, because all those things you’ve dreamed about will be yours. We just had an entire year of downs, and it’s about time to have the ups. Du schaffst das!
The year 2021 will be amazing, because you will again get to see your friends and family in person instead of by zoom, and never look back. Never again will you say “You have to unmute yourself,” and “I can hear you but I can’t see you.”
The year 2021 will be amazing for you! You will find clarity and happiness. You will find love and joy. You will experience highs and lows but it will all be worth it and incredible. Das Jahr 2021 wird das erstes Jahr des Restes des Lebens! Geniessen!
2021 will be amazing for you! You will make new friends and be able to spend time with old friends. You will learn a new skill and find new ways to make money. Especially, your year will be filled with love and laughter.
Your new year will be warm and filled with laughter and love. I wish you good times and good health. Happy holidays and a lovely shining new year!
Ich wünschte, Sie können sicher eine Reise nach Deutschland haben, um neue Freunde von dieser Seite zu treffen.
Nach diesem Jahr, das Dich vor viele unerwartete Herausforderungen gestellt hat, wirst Du 2021 viel Erfolg erlangen und wichtige Ziele erreichen. Alles, was Du 2020 geopfert musste, wirst Du im kommenden Jahr nachholen können. Dadurch wirst du zugleich Deine Horizonte verbreiten.

2021 will be AMAZING because, in the least, their will be a new resident in the White House, which is good news for the world and planet, snd st the most this horrible pandemic will slowly recede. Chin up! Eyes forward. Dream on!
