Question about German
I have a hard time with writing (and talking even more) in German and getting the message I’m trying to convey through.
Even when casually chatting with someone I lack the most basic words and phrases like hang up, I’m back and more common phrases.
I really don’t know what to do because I have tried to learn most common phrases, but there are always some new ones that I need for the conversation.
Any tips?🙏

I would say learn grammar instead. Learn vocabulary. Only using phrases can get you so far. But when you have the capabilities to use and create/express your own thoughts, irbid a lot more powerful than relying on something else.
