A "warm person" is a homosexual in German.
-
Aww, that’s sweet. The Germans are a kind and open hearted people.
-
Just don't ask how warm between 1937 and 1945.

How do you tell the difference when spoken?

Emphasis on different parts and context.

can germans be all lowkey and cool and disable their autocaps
would sam altman never survive in germany

Good question! Sometimes it's stress but sometimes just context
-
Context. In the first two examples both sentences sound exactly the same, but it has never been a problem.
In some examples I‘d maybe expect stronger emphasis on the noun. ‚Sucht‘ (short u) vs ‚sucht‘ (long u) from the last example are pronounced very differently.

Duolingo has yet to enforce these capitalization rules. Boy, it is going to get difficult in later stages.

It’s just simply nouns that are capitalized. It’s not crazy at all, and I learned that in Duolingo years ago in the first few courses.

Aimable, aime à régner au gris logis qu'elle a.

I thought this was poetry

Its nonsense because in most of these examples at least one is gobbledygook , like something no normal person would actually say or write.
Also with context you 95% of time know whats ment. Same in every other lanuage.

What's the difference in the 2nd? Don't the English transitions mean the same?

Flee means to escape, flea is a parasitic insect
