Hey guys...i have to write an essay about a trip i made to berlin last year and im not quite sure to write "Once you know Berlin, you will never wanna leave it" or something along those lines.
I was thinking "Nachdem man Berlin kennengelernt hatte, wollte man es nie verlassen" but i dont think thats correct.
Any german that can help me? Thanks a lot TL.net :D

Sobald man einmal in Berlin war/Sobald man einmal Berlin kennen gelernt hat, will man es nie wieder verlassen.

Or sth along these lines.

I don't think Nachdem is the correct choice to start with. Not german though.

If I were a mod, then I would say now that homework threads aren't allowed on TL. But I am not a mod and therefore I won't say it.

Nachdem man Berlin kennengelernt hat, wird man es nie mehr verlassen wollen.

I could be wrong but I don't really think this counts as a homework thread because the OP actually made an attempt to do it.

Usually the homework threads that get auto-closed are ones like "I have this REALLY FUN MATH PROBLEM that you should solve. Show your work~~!"

I would have failed spanish so badly if it were not for google translate. Doesn't work perfectly, but when you have no idea what a question on your homework is asking it can be pretty handy. Going from english to spanish is a bit dicey, usually gets the vocabulary correct but messes up on stuff like imperfect versus preterite and some word order.
I like the way the walls go out. Gives you an open feeling. Firefly's a good design. People don't appreciate the substance of things. Objects in space. People miss out on what's solid.

What Saulbert said basically. You could make a more literal translation though: Wer Berlin kennen gelernt hat, will es nie mehr verlassen.

Not that any or the above is wrong, I'm just thinking that:

Wer Berlin erstmal kennengelernt hat, wird es so schnell nicht mehr verlassen wollen.

or rather:

Wenn man Berlin einmal kennengelernt hat, wird man es so schnell nicht wieder verlassen wollen.

have a better sound to them...

"Wer Berlin einmal kennen gelernt hat will es nie wieder verlassen." should be closest and most eloquent translation.

The constructions around "Wenn" or "Nachdem" are literal and school-like translations but this is more about a mediation.

The premiss of this statement is that you have never been to Vienna, because you would flee Berlin at once !


"Wer Berlin einmal kennen gelernt hat will es nie wieder verlassen."


Wer Berlin einmal kennen gelernt hat, der will es nie wieder verlassen.
