[general tag question]
Ich is not actually pronounced ikh,
unless you are speaking a northern dialect of German.&If you are speaking
a southern dialect, then it is more like ish. There is no equivalent
sound in English. &In standard German, it is somewhere between ish and
ikh. Technically, it is a voiceless palatal
fricative and its voiced counterpart is the y sound in yes.
2. Pronunciation
German Vowels
English Pronunciation
ee rounded / long vowel
ih rounded / short vowel
mate, wait
ay rounded / long vowel
eh rounded / short vowel
ah / longer vowel than [a]
boot, suit
coat, goat
caught, bought
uhr / also short vowel like [ə]
Highlighted vowels do not exist in English.
Notice that words spelled with & and &
can be pronounced with a long or short vowel, so determining the pronunciation
based on the spelling is not possible. The other umlauted letter, &,
is generally pronounced as [e], though it can be pronounced as [ɛ]
in some dialects. A general rule for pronunciation, however, states that the
short vowels / ɪ ʏ &#650 ɛ ɔ / must be followed by a consonant,
whereas the long vowels / i y u e & o / can occur at the end of the syllable
German Diphthongs
English Pronunciation
eye, buy, why
auf, kaufen
cow, now, how
[ɔɪ]
neu, Geb&ude
toy, boy, foil
German Consonants
There are a few German consonants that do not exist in English, and some consonant
combinations that are not common in English. Notice that the pronunciation of
the German r changes according to the location in the countries that speak German,
i.e. [R] in northern Germany and [r] in southern Germany, Austria and Switzerland.
Sample words
How to pronounce:
ch (with vowels e and i)
Chemie, mich, nicht
Make yuh sound voiceless (no vibration of vocal cords)
ch (with vowels a, o, u)
Buch, lachen, kochen
Make kuh sound a fricative (continuous airflow)
Apfel, Pferd, Pfanne
Pronounce together as one sound
Zeit, Zug, Tanz
Pronounce together as one sound
ja, Januar, Junge
Quote, Quiz, Quitte
st / sp (at beginning of syllable)
[ʃt] / [ʃp]
Stadt, sprechen
schenken, schlafen
Theater, Thron
Vater, verboten
Wasser, warm
Stra&e, gro&
s (before vowel)
Salz, seit, Sitz
In addition, the sounds [b], [d], and [g] lose their voicing
at the end of a syllable, so they are pronounced as their voiceless counterparts
[p], [t], and [k], respectively. However, the spelling does not reflect the
pronunciation.
Stress generally falls on the first syllable of the word, except in words borrowed
from other languages, where the stress falls on the last syllable (especially
with French words.)
3. Alphabet
irp-se-lon
There is another letter in written German,
ss (es-zet), pronounced like [s]. However, this letter is only used after long
vowels or diphthongs, and it is not used at all in Switzerland.
4. Nouns & Cases
All nouns have a gender in German, either masculine, feminine or neuter. &There
really isn't a lot of logic to which nouns are which gender, so you must
memorize the gender of each noun.&
1. Male persons or animals, the seasons, months, and days are all masculine,
as are nouns ending in -ant, -ast, -ich, -ig, -ismus, -ling, -or and -us.
2. Female persons or animals, and numerals are all feminine,
as are nouns ending in -a, -anz, -ei, -enz, -heit, -ie, -ik, -in, -keit,
-schaft, -sion, -sis, -t&t, -tion, -ung and -ur.&
3. Young persons or animals, metals, chemical elements, letters of the
alphabet, hotels, restaurants, cinemas, continents, countries and provinces
are all neuter, as are nouns that end in -chen, -icht,
-il, -it, -lein, -ma, -ment, -tel, -tum, and -um. &Nouns referring
to things that end in -al, -an, -ar, -&t, -ent, -ett, -ier, -iv,
-o and -on, as well as most words with the prefix ge- and most nouns ending
in -nis and -sal are also neuter.&
All nouns in German are capitalized in writing.
All nouns (as well as pronouns and adjectives)&have a case depending
on what function they serve in the sentence. &These may seem strange,
but remember that Eng however, we would say direct
object instead of accusative, or indirect object instead of dative. &Although
these cases may make learning new words difficult, they actually help
with word order because the position of words in a sentence is not as
fixed in German as it is in English. &And the reason for that is
because words can occur in these four cases:
Nominative
subject of the sentence
The girl is reading.
Accusative
direct objects
We see the mountain.
I bought a gift.
indirect objects
We talk to&the guide.
I gave my mom a gift.
indicates possession or relationship
The book of the girl.
The dog's tail.
The nouns you look up in a dictionary
will be in the nominative case.
5. Articles & Demonstratives
Definite Articles (The)
Nominative
der (dare)
das (dahs)
Accusative
den (dane)
dem (dame)
des (dess)
Indefinite Articles (A, An)
eine (ine-uh)
einen (ine-en)
einem (ine-em)
einer(ine-er)
eines (ine-es)
Demonstratives (This, That, These, Those)
This / These
That /&Those
Jener is an older word &found in written German that
was used to mean that or those, but today in spoken German the definite
articles are used. &Dort or da may accompany the definite
articles for emphasis. &Das is also a universal demonstrative
and therefore shows no agreement. &Notice the last letter of each
of the words above. &They correspond to the last letters of the words
for the definite articles. &Words that are formed this same way are
called der-words because they follow the pattern of the der-die-das declension. &Other der-words are: &jeder-every, and
welcher-which. &Mancher (many) and solcher (such)
are also der-words, but they are used almost always in the plural.
6. Subject (Nominative) Pronouns
Subject Pronouns
you (familiar)
er, sie, es, man
air, zee, ess, mahn
he, she, it, one
they, you (formal)
Man can be translated as one, we, they
or the people in general. &When referring to nouns as it, you use
er for masculine nouns, sie for feminine nouns and es for
neuter nouns. &However, the definite articles der, die and das
can be substituted for er, sie and es to show more emphasis.

Present tense of sein - to be (zine)

Haben is frequently used in expressions that would normally take to
be in English.
Ich habe Hunger. = I am hungry.
Ich hatte Durst. = I was thirsty.
Ich habe Langeweile. = I am bored.
Ich hatte Heimweh. = I was homesick.
Ich habe Angst. = I am afraid.
In everyday speech, the final -e on the ich conjugations can be dropped: ich hab'
or hab' ich

Sometimes zwo (tsvoh) is used
instead of zwei to avoid confusion with drei when talking on the telephone. &The use of commas
and periods is switched in German, though a space is commonly used to
separate thousandths, i.e. 1,000 would be 1 000. When saying telephone
numbers, you can either say each number individually or group them in
twos. For years, you use the hundreds: 1972 is neunzehn hu
or the thousands: 2005 is zwei tausend f&nf.
Wann sind Sie geboren? When were you born?
Ich bin in 1982 geboren. I was born in 1982.

To say on a certain day or the weekend, use am.
&Add an -s to the day to express "on Mondays, Tuesdays, etc." &All
days, months and seasons are masculine so they all use the same form of
these words: &jeden - every, n&chsten - next,
letzten - last (as in the last of a series), vorigen - previous.
&In der Woche is the expression for "during the week&
in Northern and Eastern Germany, while unter der Woche
is used in Southern Germany, Austria and Switzerland.

15. Colors & Shapes / Die Farben & Die Formen
das Viereck
violett / lila
das Dreieck
das Rechteck
das Achteck
der W&rfel
der&Zylinder
Because colors are adjectives, they must agree in gender and number
with the noun they describe if they are placed before the noun. However,
not all adjectives agree, such as colors ending in -a or -e; nor do
they agree when they are used as predicate adjectives. More about . To say that a color is light, put hell-
before it, and to say that a color is dark, put dunkel-
before it.
Das Viereck ist braun. The square is brown.
Das Rechteck ist hellblau. The rectange is light blue.

Brother-in-law
der Schwager (&)
der Erwachsene (-n)
Sister-in-law
die Schw&gerin (-nen)
der Zwilling (-e)
The letters in parentheses indicate the plural form of the noun. Notice
that sometimes an umlaut is placed over the main vowel of the word in
the plural. For example, der Mann is singular (the man)
and die M&nner is plural (the men). For step- and
-in-law relations, just add Stief- or Schwieger-
before the main person, except in the case of brother-in-law and sister-in-law
noted above. The plurals follow the pattern for the main person, i.e.
die Schwiegermutter (singular) and die Schwiegerm&tter
19. To Know People & Facts
kennen - to know people
wissen - to know facts
wir kennen
wir wissen
er/sie/es kennt
sie/Sie kennen
er/sie/es wei&
sie/Sie wissen
Kennen is a regular verb, while wissen is irregular in the present tense. You must use the subject pronouns (ich, du, er...);
however, I will leave them out of future conjugations.
20. Formation of Plural Nouns
Plural nouns in German are unpredictable, so it's best to memorize the plural
form with the singular. &However, here are some rules that can help:
1. Feminine nouns usually add -n or -en. &Nouns
that end in -in (such as the female equivalents of masculine nouns)
eine Lampe
zwei Lampen
zwei T&ren
eine Studentin
zwei Studentinnen
eine Gabel
zwei Gabeln
2. Masculine and neuter nouns usually add -e or
-er. &Many masculine plural nouns ending in -e add an
umlaut as well, but neuter plural nouns ending in -e don't. &Plurals
that end in -er add an umlaut when the stem vowel is a, o , u or
zwei R&cke
zwei Hefte
zwei M&nner
zwei B&cher
3. Masculine and neuter singular nouns that end in -er
either add an umlaut or change nothing at all. &Many nouns with a stem
vowel of a, o, u or au add an umlaut. Masculine and neuter singular nouns that end in -el also add nothing at all (with three exceptions: Pantoffel, Stachel, Muskel).
ein Bruder
zwei Br&der
ein Fenster
zwei Fenster
zwei Kegel
ein Mittel
zwei Mittel
4. Nouns that end in a vowel other than an unstressed -e and nouns of foreign
origin add -s.
zwei Hobbys
zwei Hotels
