September 12 is German Language Day, also known as Tag der deutschen Sprache. It has been observed the second Saturday in September since 2001.

 

Interest in the German language is growing again especially in southern Europe. This may be due to Germany’s highly-regarded educational system, its positive economic development or indeed its reputation as a whole. “German Language Day” aims to promote German independently of trends.

 

(Note: The German conversation was from my first lesson in German class in 9th grade from the packet of material: "Audio-Lingual Materials", copyright 1961. I used these in 1967-1968. I still have the packet, as well as the German text books for the next 2 years when I took German in high school.)

Ist in den tiefen des Speicherplatzes meines Handys mal wieder an das Tageslicht gekommen .

😉 Ich habe ja viele Gedichte verfasst - dieses ist eins davon und es klingt doch auch jetzt noch gut , finde ich .
