Translation - Japannees-Duits - 私はファヴェーラを映画やTVでしか知りません。...

Hi Ian!
Could you please help me with this translation? I have really no idea what it could mean and if the German translation is correct...

I have only ever seen Favela (who? what?) in movies and on TV.
My ideas about Favela are probably very stereotypical.
Literally:
I don't know of Favela except from movies, TV and so on.
I think my image about Favela is very stereotypical.

Probably the German translation doesn't need the "also"?
I read a little German too...

Very good! But why haven't you listed German as a language you know (at least a little) on your profile?

Japanese looks very mystical for me - I have really no idea how people can be able to learn such a language. Germanic and Romanic languages all are somehow logical for me, but Japanese and Chinese are totally different. My computer does not even show the characters but only frames. except for the "TV" which appears perfectly readable

Well, when the one you love speaks a certain language, you find a way to speak (and read) it too...
I also find the Japanese and Chinese characters kind of "mystical": for me, that was part of their mysterious attractiveness, and perhaps also why I find it so enjoyable to study and learn them...

PS: I studied German for two years in high school and at the time understood and spoke it quite well, but that was...uh...thirty years ago? ;;
