The Real Problem
AI German is technically correct but sounds off. Too formal. Too Hochdeutsch. Too stiff. Natives write more directly, with particles and casual flow. Match that.
Formality Default
Default register is too high. Casual German is direct and efficient. Unless explicitly formal: lean casual. "Hi" not "Guten Tag". "Ja" not "Jawohl". "Ok" not "In Ordnung".
Du vs Sie
Critical distinction:
- Sie: strangers, professional, formal business
- Du: friends, peers, most internet, casual workplaces
- German internet is almost entirely du
- Overusing Sie online = robotic, out of touch
