Book Recommendations Needed (Dictionary)

I am learning German by myself and searching for word meanings , nuances and writing them in a notebook is very time consuming.

So I want recommendations for Dictionary (Deutsch - Englisch) or (Deutsch to Hindi)

Which have example sentences, Proper word meanings with nuances.

I know about dict.cc and online websites but I can't study with those, I study best with a physical book.

And I have 26 euros stuck in my paypal, I want to spend them.

26F, looking for ccountability partner for checking in Daily.

I am learning a language (German) on my own and I need an accountability partner. It might look like I message them in detail the goals and then throughout the day, maybe once or twice they ask me what I am up to. And at night we can tell what I did , or didn't.

I would like to focus on two or three goals at once.

Language learning for 5-6 hours is the primary goal.

[Lavender Marriage] 26F, Muslim, looking for M partner (India or Germany) – mutual understanding, no pressure, Purely Platonic arrangement.

Age: 26

· Location: Delhi

· Community: Muslim (important for family) (I am questioning the religion part and I'm not a follower of anything)

· Profession: Currently started teaching, planning nursing Ausbildung in Germany, has a Pharmacy Background.

I am looking for a man in similar situation (closeted / asexual / gay / not wanting traditional marriage)

· Age range: 26-35

· Location: India (any city) or already in Germany

· Willing to have a platonic, mutually respectful marriage.

Parents want arranged marriage soon. We don't have to love together, only appearance needed with your family until marriage, after that no need to attend any function if you don't want to.

And I am okay with anything, completely non judgemental. You can have your relationship outside marriage, and it can short term too. Like 5 years.

I will adopt children but no pressure to you, you can leave or stray, I want to adopt children on my own, and not untill I can afford it.

I won't rely on you financially fully, as I will be getting a small salary for the first three years and after that proper full salary, but I might need a bit of help in the first three years if needed for family. So Financially stable is the one I am looking for. After three years I will get full salary in Ausbildung and I am also amenable to support you when I start getting full salary.

You don't have to move to Germany with me. I am okay with living separately. We can connect by phone.

· Need someone who understands this emotional pressure

· No expectation of sex or children (lavender marriage only)

· Open to adoption in future (my dream, not requirement for partner, I will do it only when I have the means and money and I can handle the child alone. So you are not tied to it)

· Partner can stay in India, move to Germany later, or do whatever works for him.

· I will support each other in front of families but live independently when I am in Germany, before that in India I can live with your family for a bit, just for appearances.

I am open to signing a pre-nuptial or post-nuptial agreement (to protect both).

I Will share identity after initial trust is built and I expect same from him.

I am open to meeting in public places but not just after two or three chats. I am very protective of my identity and safety.

Please dm me, if you are interested.

First of all I want to say , I am very limited in budget. I can spend 30 k INR max. On my German learning Journey.

I can study full time, up to 6-7 hours, and I need to take the B2 exam this year only. In October end or November first week.

Now for structured classes, the cheaper options are there but they don't provide more than 60 hours per level (B1 and B2 specifically). There's a girl available to teach online B1 and B2 in 4 months. For 32 k ... But she is still doing C1. Should I consider her?

Or

I can go to Max Müller Bhavan Library, for self study, and take grammar lectures from "Learn German with Kedar Jadhav" youtube, completely free and of very good quality.

But I am confused about where I should practice speaking and get my writing checked.

I asked many teachers online about speaking and writing checking but they are asking 40k for everything and for two months only. One is asking for 10 k but for A1-A2 level only. Then saying that she provides classes till B1 only.

There's another online teacher on Instagram and she is saying her B2 batch is going to start in June second week, it will take 4 months. And it is for 32 k......

Should I practice on my own till B1 and join B2 only......

I don't know what I should do......

There's an offline institute near me , providing B1 and B2 for 45 k in six months.

I am very good at grammar since Kedar sir explains everything well, I practice it with Gemini AI.....

For speaking I tried Pingo and Talk pal (I didn't like them)

There's no response from Hello Talk.

I joined an online class before for A1 and I think I took great notes with Kedar sir than the classes. Money feels wasted. That's why I did A2 on my own, but speaking is a problem.

Please I really need the advice. I want to go to Max Müller bhavan library and save money on grammar lessons and have actual conversations and writing checking.

I tried italki but the teacher seems expensive there.

I am learning from the VHS portal, it seems to help but the problem is the same SPEAKING and WRITING checking.
