뜻
To be able to communicate in a particular language.
문화적 배경
Germans often downplay their language skills. Someone saying they speak 'ein bisschen' English might actually be quite fluent. In Switzerland, 'sprechen' can refer to High German or Swiss German dialects, which are linguistically distinct. People often switch between them depending on the context. The phrase 'Wir sprechen eine Sprache' is a common idiom in corporate Germany to indicate that a team is aligned and working toward the same goal.
The 'i' Rule
Remember that 'sprechen' changes to 'sprichst' and 'spricht'. This is a common pattern for many strong German verbs.
Don't use 'reden'
If you say 'Ich rede Deutsch', Germans will understand you, but it sounds like you are currently chatting in German rather than stating you have the skill.
