A Thai child who speaks German very well said "Das schmeckt mir sehr lecker." That is actually wrong, it should be "Das IS very delicious." or
"This tastes very GOOD." I just haven't figured out what grammatical rule was broken here.

Loading...We are all sitting on the same train and travel across time. We look out. We've seen enough. We are all on the same train. And nobody knows how far. One neighbor sleeps, another complains, a third talks a lot. Stations are announced. The train that races through the years, never reaches its destination. We…
Hey, I'm currently studying for a German exam and have written an analysis of Friedrich Rückert's poem "Reiseziel." I have no idea whether this analysis is good or bad, so I'm asking someone with experience to correct it. I deliberately left out the conclusion and interpretation. Thanks in advance.
Hello everyone, Why is “Am Neuen Mark” written in capital letters? Thanks in advance!
It's about locomotives in industrialization, can someone please help?
Hello, Do I have to say the whole name in the source analysis, or can I abbreviate it somehow?

Russians, in turn, say as funny things as: “But it costs expensive/cheap!”

“Schmecken” is rather aimed at an adverb and not an adjective. “Hi” rather on adjectives.
On the other hand, adjectives are also used adverbially…
Your Thai example is particularly clippy because you could say, “The dish tastes delicious!”
That tastes delicious, it’s in the Duden.
Since it’s a girl with a foreign mother tongue, I don’t see a “mistake” because it’s super to understand, just too sweet and striking and I wouldn’t even improve grammatically. I wish I could speak a second language. I like that.
Why are you looking for a grammatical rule? It just used a wrong word, which is used by the way, sometimes.
In addition, the sentence could also be loud without problems “it tastes very delicious”.
