Wait, Latvian has only *three* irregular verbs?!? **rips up book of French verbs** **still ripping** **...still.....ripping....**

Amazing coincidence: "ir" also means "to be" in Japanese. But only for humans, animals, and moving automobiles (actually "iru" but pronounced the same as "ir"). For everything else "to be" is "aru" But only for "existing" not like saying "I am fine" etc.... for which there is no verb at all! BTW thank you for always mixing in advanced expressions for basic lessons! Something for everybody!

Great video and song recommendation at the end! Did you ever think of sharing a spotify playlist of great Latvian songs? I believe listening to music in a foreign language helps a lot if you want to learn it. However, it is not always easy to find nice music :) And you seem to have great taste !

Hey girl ! Just wanted to drop a huge thank-you for all your hard work you have put in to make these videos happen! Me (Latvian) and my American partner have been following your content since the very first videos you have made , and it’s been amazing! ( my partner literally cannot await for Germanes new videos to come out every week ) We love the way you explain Latvian culture and language, in a way that my Latvian ass could never, haha. + my partner has been trying to learn Latvian , but there really ain’t much learning materials online for English speakers, so we really appreciate your channel!! You are amazing and keep up the good work ! Happy holidays , from Taiwan

An example on an interesting nuance: Es esmu auksts/auksta (m/f form respectively) - literally would translate to "I am cold", but in this case it speaks more about a personal quality. As in, you're a cold (and unfeeling) person. Man ir auksti - literally "I have cold" (or even 'coldly' since the -i ending to 'auksts' makes it an adverb), which sounds odd, but properly translates to "I am cold", as in you want a blanket and tea because you spent too much time outside or left the window open. Typically, 'es esmu' + adjective is used for describing an attribute of the person you're talking about, in this case 'es' or 'I', but can be used with any pronoun. ('tu esi', 'viņš ir', etc.) 'Man ir' (or 'tev ir', 'viņam ir') (which uses the possessive form of the pronoun) is obviously usually used for possession, however 'man ir' + adverb can also describe an attribute (in this case mostly feelings caused by senses, like cold, heat, fear etc.) of the person in question, and the adverb is treated like and has the same contextual meaning as the corresponding adjective.

Arrived in Riga from France just last week to spend a semester studying abroad at RTU, and it seems our online Latvian lessons are in a bit of an unsure situation for some reason. Would someone happen to know of any resources of the "hard" way to Latvian ? As in, flat-out grammar sheets with examples and stuff, I sadly don't really have time to watch a lot of different videos and glean information from various sources very inefficiently... Thanks in advance!

Bišķi offtopic, bet vai jums vai kādam citam ģimenē STEAM ir? Ja ir, tad varu uzdāvināt vienu spēli (pagaidām tikai vienu, vēl vienai tulkojums jau ir, bet atjauninājums ir procesā), kurai ir latviešu tulkojums, tā ir pavisam īsiņa, tā ka lasīšana nenogurdinās. Varbūt vienīgi vilšanos sagādās tas, ka tā ir tik īsa. XD Mani pašu atrast tur ir pavisam viegli, jo lietotāja vārds ir tieši tāds pats, kā šeit.
