I want to learn German for practical applications, not just grammar. I'm looking for resources that focus on spoken German without unnecessary grammar rules.
I'm going to Germany for my master's. Though it's an English taught program, Germany is obviously German coded. I wanna learn German to be able to communicate decently with people. I start my degree in October so I have a about 6 months. I am not looking to study the language. I'm looking to learn the language for practical applications. How do I go about it? I wanna learn spoken German and don't want to waste time in unnecessary grammar rules and clauses. And I am not particularly looking for certification as it's not required by my program. I would if I could but I have a lot of expenses this year and certification is an expense that I can spare. Your help, suggestions, resource recommendations or just your opinion on how I can go about this is much appreciated.
