Hello Benedikt!
Hi everyone,
I guess there are two Germans talking one to the other in
English.
Have a nice evening
Benedikt
Not quite, it’s two persons speaking two different lanugages and helping each other learning the other language. In my case that’s a Chinese girl and me: I help her with German, she helps me with my Chinese.
You’re probably right. But I did’nt want to take the Mickey I
actually had never heard of ‚tandem partner‘ as regards to
language.
From the link mentioned by Sian I take it that this is serious
business and actually called tandem partnership or e tandem
partnership for partners who meet online. So the question
would have to be ‚what is it called in German?‘ - but never
mind just another English expression in the German language.
The German word is Tandempartner. This is not an English expression.
Greetings,
