German isn’t overly precise to be honest. It’s kind of a “primal” language. We use a tiny active vocabulary and juggle it around to mean completely different things (that’s probably a thing a beginner will struggle with, every word in a sentence could potentially be a context clue that changes the entire meaning). English for example has way more unique words. Often texts become noticeably shorter if translated from German to English. I think that rules out precision 😅

That’s how I felt/feel, but couldn’t/can’t refute a native speaker because I just don’t know enough. Thanks for the comments!
Sure. Feel free to ask if there’s anything else. I could chat about languages all day 😄
