Question
what is the of this german language in English: Denken uber micah gerade getzt.

Answer
Hello
It's not correct German and it makes no sense.

Literal translation "To think over me just now."

"Denken über mich gerade jetzt." Which is not a correct sentence construction in German.

Denken is a infinitive to think...

"über mich" wrong construction

an mich denken - to think of me

"über mich nachdenken" to reflect on oneself another possible interpretaton

2 a: to think quietly and calmly

Greetings,

PS.
A non native speaker of German must have written this sentence, probably a beginner learning German who can't yet
1) conjugate correctly verbs
2) who doesn't now how to use correctly prepositions and the usage of verbs
3) who doesn't know correct sentence construction in German (word order)
