##Posting rules:


**No Off-Topic Posts:** Submissions which are not about the German language are not permitted. We are a community focused on discussion related to learning the German language. It is also a place to discuss the language at large and we welcome submissions that elaborate on the reasons why we're interested in the German language. 

**No Low-Effort Homework Requests:** Please do not post homework requests with no signs of effort - we are happy to make corrections and suggestions, but we won't do the work for you. So you have to have done some work already for us to critique.  This also include images of text from text books, classwork, or exams. If you wish to ask about school work you need to submit them as a self-text posts.

**No Promotion or Advertising:** All forms of advertising and promotion are prohibited. This includes, but is not limited to: for-profit language learning courses; non-free and/or proprietary programs, applications, or websites; external social media channels; and fundraising or crowdsourcing campaigns.

**No Translation Requests**: This community is focused on learning German. Please post unrelated translation requests to /r/translator. Please be aware that /r/translator has specific formatting requirements for submissions, so check their rules before submitting anything there.

**No Low-Quality or Low-Effort Submissions**: This includes: Memes, image macros, images of text, and any other low-effort submissions. These are not suitable for our community. There should be an opportunity for discussion or feedback on your post.
